442. Menopause: Is This a Joke? with Tamsen Fadal

Menopause. It’s usually spoken about with disdain, dread, or even fear - if it’s even talked about at all! You just suffer through quietly, having a million questions about what’s going on with your body, and never really getting relief or answers.

Meet Tamsen Fadal, an Emmy Award winning journalist who is literally shredding the silence on menopause. Tamsen is the author of the new book How to Menopause, and creator and producer of the documentary The M Factor.

In this conversation, Tamsen Fadal shares her personal journey through menopause, discussing the symptoms she experienced and the lack of awareness surrounding women's health issues. Listen in to our discussion about the importance of education and advocacy for women in midlife, highlighting the need for better representation in the media and the necessity of lifestyle changes to thrive during this phase of life. Tamsen encourages women to embrace menopause as a transformative time rather than a negative experience, advocating for preparedness and empowerment through knowledge.

If you’re in the midst of menopause or perimenopausal symptoms, you’re not going to want to miss this episode!
