Brenda Edwards: Early Menopause, Cancer Survivor & Losing Jamal | Finding Joy Through Grief

#brendaedwards #loosewomen #midlife #menopause #breastcancer ITV Loose Women panellist & West End star Brenda Edwards doesn't sugarcoat midlife. Between 8 shows a week in Paddington the Musical after having navigated early menopause triggered by Stage 3 breast cancer, she's learned that surviving midlife means listening to your body—not ignoring it. In this raw first episode of Midlife Messy and Marvellous, Brenda opens up to me about: • How chemotherapy thrust her into early menopause at 47 • Losing her son Jamal Edwards MBE and learning to pause without guilt • How journalling helps her mentally • Why she's done people-pleasing at 56 and more We also talk about the foundation in honour of her late son’s memory, The Jamal Edwards Self Belief Trust, which teaches young people invaluable life skills, and why a certain song from Paddington gives her goosebumps when she sings it every night! This inaugural episode of Midlife Messy & Marvellous is for every woman who's tired, overheated, emotionally stretched, or wondering if she's failing at midlife. You're not. You're human. ================================================== CHAPTERS 00:00 Introduction and Greetings 00:07 Journey to the West End, Early Career and X Factor Experience 01:44 Paddington and Childhood Memories 03:08 Passion for Performing, Family and Musical Roots 04:51 Challenges and Resilience 08:09 Breast Cancer Diagnosis 10:00 Coping with Menopause 11:56 The Power of Positivity 15:31 The Importance of Pausing and Resetting 18:22 Reflections on Parenting and Responsibility 18:58 Embracing Independence and Self-Discovery 20:03 Continuing Jamal's Legacy 22:03 Personal Struggles and Overcoming Adversity 25:05 The Importance of Community and Local Businesses 31:22 Advice to My Younger Self 33:45 The Power of Simple Conversations ================================================== CONNECT WITH MARVERINE 📧 https://transformwithmarv.com/contact 🌐 https://transformwithmarv.com/ Get to know me better My weekly email https://marverinecole.substack.com/ My personal Youtube channel    / @midlifewithmarv   If you enjoyed this, why not buy me a coffee? https://buymeacoffee.com/midlifewithmarv Or grab yourself the official Midlife Messy & Marvellous mug while stocks last https://transformwithmarv.com/midlife... ================================================== CONNECT WITH BRENDA 🎟️ See Brenda playing ‘Tanya’ in Paddington at London’s Savoy Theatre (until October 2026) https://paddingtonthemusical.com/ 🤳 Brenda Edwards on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/brendaedwar...
