This Is Perimenopause

Menopause, Cancer, and Finding Yourself with Dani Binnington

Bespoke Projects Season 1 Episode 18

Join us as we sit down with Dani Binnington, a breast cancer survivor who has turned her experience into a mission to support other women navigating cancer treatment and menopause. Dani shares her journey from diagnosis at 33 to being pushed into surgical menopause at 39 and the challenges she faced along the way. She was quickly confronted by the lack of support for people whose life-saving cancer treatment puts them into an early menopause. 

This led Dani to create the Menopause and Cancer community and podcast, along with online support groups, workshops, and programs, in collaboration with world-leading menopause specialists and other experts, to help women regain health and wellness after cancer.

Focusing on curiosity and connection, Dani’s approach is both practical and positive. Regardless of the nature of your struggle, Dani will give you hope and remind you of the power and agency we each hold.
