Have you ever walked into a room only to stand there not knowing what you wanted? I have! I also frequently wake up at night, around 3 am with all kinds of thoughts going through my mind. Sometimes my hands and feet feel numb. I have sensitivities to food that suddenly appeared.

Describing these symptoms to my medical doctors sent me on a crazy journey of tests, wrong diagnosis and anxiety. I was confused and felt abandoned. Years later I connected the dots - I was in perimenopause.

I'm making this podcast for you - a woman in midlife going through hormonal changes. I share my story and the story of women who are on this journey. I talk with experts who support women on this journey. It's time we talked about Menopause and got more information and support. This is not a disease, nothing to be ashamed of. Every woman will go through it. It's an exciting, though often chaotic transition. On the other side is a confident, sensual woman who knows what she wants and what she won't put up with any longer.
