341. How To Menopause

from You Are Not Broken

What do you get when a top New York news anchor, a journalist, and a perimenopausal powerhouse writes a book? You get How to Menopause — a no-BS guide to midlife, straight from someone who lived it, confused, anxious, and totally unsupported. In this episode, I sit down with my friend and author Tamsen Fadal to talk about what it was like to unknowingly navigate perimenopause during a high-profile career, the moment she literally hit the bathroom floor, and why she turned her personal chaos into a mission to educate others. We talk hormones, misdiagnoses, pelvic floor surprises, brain fog on live TV, and why body composition matters now. Oh, and yes — she verbed “menopause.” This one’s raw, real, funny, and totally relatable. Whether you’re in the middle of it or still wondering what the hell is going on, this episode (and her book) is for you. 🎙️ Listen now and learn how to menopause — your way. https://www.instagram.com/tamsenfadal HOW TO MENOPAUSE BOOK To my fellow clinicians: listen to this podcast on ⁠Pinnacle for FREE to earn CME credit⁠ Listen to my Tedx Talk: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Why we need adult sex ed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take my Adult Sex Ed Master Class:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Interested in my sexual health and hormone clinic? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Waitlist is open⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Thanks to our sponsor ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Midi Women's Health⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
