Summary

I had a fantastic conversation with Donna Mackenzie-Smyth about her experiences of navigating menopause while recovering from a stroke. We discussed the positives and negatives of those experiences and how she's had to adapt her life to her new needs while not letting anything stop her from being who she is and doing what she loves. Donna has developed an artistic project called Scrapheap - made by and for women experiencing menopause to highlight some of the experiences that women go through, but may not discuss. At the end of the video episode on YouTube, you will see some images that Donna and her photographer Laura Page developed for the project.

I hope that you enjoy this episode.

    Hi, I'm Jason. I like Artsy stuff. I like talking. I live in NYC. This is my attempt at doing all three at the same time. Wish me luck. I've been fortunate to meet some great people in this city. Musicians, Writers, Actors, Visual Artists, and others. Now, I sit down and chat with them about Life, the Universe, and Everything. That's it.
