Perimenopause & Menopause: The Ride No One Trains For

Riding Through Perimenopause and Beyond

In this powerful and eye-opening episode, Jenny and Simon are joined by dressage rider and coach Steph Bradley, whose groundbreaking research into perimenopause and menopause has revealed astonishing results.

Steph shares the heart-breaking stories of women whose riding and lives have been affected by this transition—stories that deserve to be heard. But this is not all heavy. True to Shut Up and Ride style, there are laughs along the way, including a candid (and very funny) chat with Simon about how sore vaginas and other rarely talked-about issues can keep women out of the saddle.

This episode is as honest as it is important: blending compassion, science, and humor to shine a light on a subject that touches countless riders. Whether you’re a rider, coach, or supporter, you’ll come away with greater understanding and maybe even a smile.

Tune in now—because these conversations matter.
