health, fitness, mental · EN

You might think you know what perimenopause looks or feels like—but chances are, it’s not what you had in mind. For decades, mainstream conversations about menopause have been narrow, framed through cisgendered, White, middle-class lenses, and often steeped in stigma, ageist rhetoric and misinformation. This podcast is about changing that narrative. We’ll explore perimenopause and menopause through fresh perspectives, highlight experiences that have historically been silenced, and offer practical knowledge to help both people living this life stage and the therapists supporting them. We’ll dive into the myths, the symptoms, the mental health impacts, and most importantly, the realities that are shaping how perimenopause is experienced today.
