About this episode
Today, Amanda Tress is joined by the amazing journalist-turned-women's health expert Tamsen Fadal to have the honest, empowering, unfiltered conversation about perimenopause and menopause that every woman deserves! We dive into why so many women are blindsided by perimenopause symptoms and why the conversation is finally becoming more mainstream. Tamsen shares her personal story of experiencing her first hot flash live on-air—and how that led her to become a leading voice for women navigating midlife health with confidence, not confusion. You'll learn: - Top signs you're entering perimenopause (hint: it's not just about missing periods) - The big lifestyle shifts that move the needle for sleep, weight management, and long-term health - How to advocate for yourself when talking to your doctor (and where to turn if you're not getting the help you need) - Why muscle gain, strength training, and smart nutrition are non-negotiable - How to balance hormonal changes without losing your mind—or your marriage! If you're approaching 40, deep in the menopause transition, or simply want to feel empowered (instead of blindsided), this episode will leave you laughing, learning, and ready to take action. Tune in now and get the strategies, science, and sisterhood you need to THRIVE!
