MIRELLA
DI BLASIO

Mirella Di Blasio founded the agency Lulu Events 20 years ago. During her professional journey, perimenopause hit her hard without her knowing what was happening. After many medical consultations, it was a homeopath who put words to her various ailments.

She decided to write her story to help women and guide them on the different solution paths available to better embrace this inevitable transition.

In La périménopause sans filtre, the author discusses 40 experienced symptoms related to perimenopause. The book is written with a large dose of humor and, above all, without taboos!

She has taken it upon herself to make the workplace more inclusive to address the mental and physical health issues women face during this period of their lives.

Concerned about the professional and personal challenges surrounding this reality, she now shares her advice with anyone willing to listen, aiming to raise awareness and encourage open discussion. She is particularly interested in the detrimental consequences that perimenopause and/or menopause can have on women's careers, a silent majority suffering in her view...

She claims to be the Joan of Arc for perimenopausal women in all aspects of their lives!
