56. Menopause - Making the "M" Word Mainstream with Jesse Schewchuk

I don’t know about you, but menopause was never something marked as a beautiful time in a women’s life. What I heard of it from my mom and my aunt’s was a time of transition filled with uncomfortable side effects and resentment. It’s no wonder why so many women dread getting older. On the podcast today, we have Jesse Schewchuk joining us to share her story of entering menopause at 42 and her intense journey of healing her body to support her transition. Navigating menopause opened her eyes to how many women were suffering in silence, which is why she is now on a mission to bring awareness, education, and support to women how are struggling with these dramatic shifts in hormones. She is making the “M” word mainstream! In this episode we explore: Jesse’s story from burnout to early menopause Catching the sign’s of perimenopause and what to do when we notice these shifts happening in your body How PMS and Perimenopause share similarities Why paying attention to our symptoms is so important Why Jesse created The Menopause Mission and how she is making the “M” word mainstream Jesse Schewchuk is a multi-award-winning Television Producer, Founder and CEO of Modern Muse Media and most recently the founder of the non-profit organization, The menopause mission.
