023. Menopause Is a Promotion: Reframing the Journey of Womanhood with Dr. Carmen Nelson

<p class="" data-start="450" data-end="860">In this empowering and deeply insightful episode, Dr. Carmen Nelson joins us to break down the complexities of <strong data-start="561" data-end="579">women’s health</strong>, especially the often-misunderstood experience of <strong data-start="630" data-end="643">menopause</strong>. Together, we explore the emotional, physical, and hormonal rollercoaster of perimenopause and menopause—and how society’s framing of this transition often leaves women disconnected from their bodies and unsupported.</p> <p class="" data-start="862" data-end="952">But Dr. Carmen has a message for all of us: menopause is not a failure—it’s a promotion.</p> <p class="" data-start="954" data-end="1216">We talk <strong data-start="962" data-end="981">mental wellness</strong>, <strong data-start="983" data-end="996">self-care</strong>, and how <strong data-start="1006" data-end="1020">breathwork</strong> and <strong data-start="1025" data-end="1037">exercise</strong> can support emotional regulation and joy.

We're here for the tea, not the medical degree.</p> </div> </div> <div class="flex justify-end mt-2"> </div>
