Welcome to Hot,
Foggy & Fabulous
A resource for emotional wellness through perimenopause, menopause and beyond. An honest, warm space built on real stories, with tools, learning and community to help you feel like yourself again.
What is Hot, Foggy & Fabulous?
Part shop, part resource, part safe place to land.
What is Hot, Foggy & Fabulous?
We are a women’s wellbeing brand and a gathering place for the emotional side of midlife. Where a lot of menopause talk stops at symptoms and supplements, we start with how you actually feel, the fog, the mood shifts, the sense of not quite recognising yourself, and we meet it with authentic storytelling, beautiful tools and genuine community.
What do you mean by emotional wellness and emotional safety?
Perimenopause and menopause are not just physical. They stir up identity, confidence, relationships and self-worth. Emotional wellness is about tending to that inner weather with the same care you would give your body.
Emotional safety is the feeling of being able to be honest, messy and human here without being judged or rushed to “fix” anything. That is the space we hold, and it runs through everything we make and everything we do.
Why do you focus on emotional intelligence?
Because understanding your own emotions is one of the most powerful things you can do in this season. When you can name what you feel, notice your triggers and respond with kindness rather than criticism, everything softens a little. Our journals, cards, masterclasses and retreats are all built around growing that self-awareness, gently and without pressure.
The foggy bit, explained
Naming what you are feeling is the first step back to clarity.
What is the difference between perimenopause and menopause?
Perimenopause is the transition, the years of hormonal change leading up to your final period, often bringing shifting cycles, sleep changes, mood swings and brain fog. Menopause itself is a single point in time, twelve months after your last period. Everything afterwards is post-menopause.
Most of the emotional ups and downs people describe happen through perimenopause, which can last for years, and you are absolutely not imagining them.
I feel foggy and not myself. Is that normal?
Yes, and you are far from alone. Brain fog, forgetfulness, irritability, tearfulness and a strange sense of disconnection are some of the most common experiences women share with us, and some of the least talked about. In our own research, around 80% of women told us they experience brain fog.
Naming it is the first step. Our tools and resources are designed to help you make sense of what you are feeling and find small, steady ways back to clarity.
Is any of this medical advice?
No. Everything we share is for emotional wellbeing, reflection and support, and it is never a substitute for professional medical or mental health care. If you are struggling or have health concerns, please reach out to your GP or a qualified practitioner. You deserve real support, and sometimes that means the right professional alongside the softer tools we offer.
