The event was a celebration of friendship, purpose, passion, and prayer, creating a space where voices shine as lighthouses for women navigating midlife. The launch featured a phenomenal line-up of women who brought fire, truth, and raw honesty to the stage: Clinical Psychologist and Trauma Specialist Dr Sharon Enoch, skincare pioneer and global educator Kamini Ramlakan, founder of Sister Connect and conversation curator Tops Thobile, award-winning music artist and mental health advocate Holly Rey, and women\u2019s health expert and wellness educator Dr Catherine. Each voice shared a story, each story ignited a spark. Hot Flushes is a podcast that dives deep into unfiltered truths, hot flushes, and all the feels that come with midlife and beyond. With real stories and raw emotions, it embraces change with honesty and humour, offering a safe space to connect over the highs and lows that make this phase so unique. Designed for women in their late 30s and beyond, it\u2019s a place to feel seen, heard and understood.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-45409 gallery-columns-3
