In The Middle | Episode 24 | The Menopause Pop Quiz: One Husband’s Journey Into the Unknown

In this episode, things heat up—and not just because our thermostat is mysteriously stuck at 65. Sarah quizzes Josh about all things menopause. Think of it as a pop quiz with no studying, no mercy, and plenty of gentle correction. Does he know what estrogen actually does? Can he define perimenopause without using the words “vibes” or “probably hormones”? Is “I’m just a little warm” code for “I’m about to incinerate you with my rage”? Spoiler: he didn’t study, and it shows.With equal parts curiosity, comedy, and “wait, what happens to the body?”, we take a playful look at how midlife changes test not only the body, but the relationship. There’s awkward guessing, genuine learning, and a few moments where the husband’s face says, “Why didn’t they teach us this in school?”Menopause may be inevitable, but confusion doesn’t have to be. Whether you’re in it, near it, or just trying to support someone through it without putting your foot in your mouth, this episode is for you. Tune in for laughs, insight, and a little public husbandly humility—all in good fun, of course.For more resources & ways to work together, visit inthemiddlecoaching.co.
