As well as editing two blogs, I have a full-time day job. I work for Shoot The Moon, a digital design and photography agency, in Ancoats, Manchester.

Stress incontinence. We’ve all been there. Whether through childbirth, obesity, our lifestyle choices e.g. smoking, or simply because of ageing. You laugh, cough or sneeze and do a little wee.

I am a woman of a certain age. I have lived a full and on the whole, a satisfying life. I have brought up a child single handedly, built two successful careers, travelled, loved and lost, had the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. I’m no different to you.

One of my careers encompasses writing, blogging and social media. Over recent months it has become apparent to me that although the Internet is full of Lifestyle Blogs of 20 to 40 year old’s, there is very little for those of us who have entered the twilight world of menopause, little wees and almost permanent grumpiness.

So here we are; Is It Warm In Here? We’ll look at the issues that affect us all, from health to empty nest syndrome but we promise we won’t mention Brexit. We’ll find gorgeous yet comfy fashions and skincare that hopefully will do what it says on the tin. We’ll discuss food, drink and travel to foreign shores that doesn’t involve finding a hotel with a kid’s club.

We’re all on this journey together so let’s have some fun. Sign up to our social media platforms and join the conversation.

May you gently glow, Jo, The Editor
