Here’s to continuing the mission, together. 💪🏾

On Thursday I met the incredible Steve Light for the very first time in person at his solo exhibition Memento Vivere at the Crypt Gallery, London.

Steve’s art tells his story of resilience, humour, and creativity in the face of CKD.
His courage to share his journey is admirable. His humility, vulnerability and honesty shines through each piece of his art. Standing beside him and seeing his work in person was unforgettable ❤️

Host Dee Moore is joined by Dr. Vikram Talaulikar, Menopause Specialist & Associate Professor in Women’s Health, to explore the connection between menopause and chronic kidney disease (CKD).

✅ Perimenopause, menopause & postmenopause explained clearly
✅ Lifestyle strategies that genuinely help 🥦💤🏃‍♀️
✅ Non-hormonal treatment options, including CBT & safe medications
✅ HRT in CKD—what’s safe, what to avoid, and the “lowest effective dose” principle
