   1 Year of Episodes and updates for now and the future

   Can you believe it?! 52 episodes! 🎉 That’s a whole year of episodes! Okay…with one little caveat. 😂 I released FIVE episodes on launch day, October 31, 2025, and I did skip one week over the summer. So technically, it hasn’t been a full year of podcasting—but we made it to 52 episodes! And that has me thinking about what comes next. ❤️ I’m considering moving to two episodes a month or even monthly so I can keep doing this for the long haul without feeling like I’m scrambling just to check the “podcast episode” box. Because there are SO many deeper topics I want to dig into. 🧠 ED and midlife 💉 GLP-1s, peptides, and weight management in perimenopause and menopause 💇♀️ Hair changes as we age—because why is my hair suddenly drier, my scalp itchy, and my curls doing completely different things?! 🌬️ Breathwork and Reiki, including a conversation with my therapist friend Danielle And, of course, I’ll keep sharing my own perimenopause journey, because sometimes it helps just knowing someone else is experiencing some of the same weird, frustrating symptoms. 😂 I also have a few health updates, including my recent appointment with Midi Health as I continue trying to figure out my poor sleep, fatigue, anxiety, itchy skin, weight gain and irritation. I’m learning more about my hormones and trying to put the pieces together instead of chasing one symptom at a time. 📚 A few resources for you! I added an electrolytes handout (https://www.bethlohman.com/resources) to the Menobodies resource page if you like having something visual to read and reference. 👩👧👦 If you’re a parent, I also have a new FREE mini video series called Communicating with Your Teens (https://www.youtube.com/@bethlohman/featured). It only takes about 5–7 minutes to watch the whole thing! 🧠 And for my therapist friends—or anyone who knows a therapist—I also created a short course with tools (https://4b60-beth.systeme.io/4therapistspm) to help therapists support clients navigating perimenopause and menopause. 💬 And now I want to hear from YOU. What do you want to hear more about? ✨ Estrogen and everything it does ⚖️ Weight management in perimenopause and menopause 👨👩👧👦 Family dynamics and managing all the things during midlife 💇♀️ Hair changes 🧠 Body image and eating disorders in midlife 🌿 Breathwork, Reiki and other wellness topics And if you have a topic you REALLY want me to cover—or you know a hairstylist who would be great on the podcast—DM me or send me an email! And as always, thank you for being here, listening, sharing, and having these chitty-chats with me. Until the next episode drops… I’m here. Always here. 💜 Connect with Beth: 💌 Email: info@bethlohman.com 📱 Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/menobodies/) & Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61576768550315): @menobodies 🌐 Tools and Resources: https://www.bethlohman.com/ (https://www.menobodies.com/home) 🗞️Newsletter:subscribe here (https://4b60-beth.systeme.io/newsletter) 🌸 Menobodies: menobodies.com (https://www.bethlohman.com/menobodies)

   Who Can We Trust? Navigating Perimenopause Information

   ☕ Welcome to Menobodies! Grab your coffee and settle in for a chitty-chat about something I feel like I’m doing ALL. THE. TIME. lately… 🔎 Researching everything! Perimenopause has made me much more curious about what’s going into my body, onto my body, and into my life. From finding reputable menopause providers and researching HRT, to skincare, supplements, food, products my daughters bring me, and even whether a $5 lotion is actually moisturizing my skin or just making me smell yummy 😂 — I feel like I’m constantly Googling, asking Siri, or investigating something. And honestly? I think there’s a reason for that. As we get older, we may become more aware of how the choices we make can affect our bodies and our long-term health. I’m thinking differently about nutrition, ingredients, skincare, healthcare providers, and the products I spend my money on. 🧴 Sometimes I want the fun-smelling lotion and the nostalgic Bath & Body Works vibes. Other times, I know my skin needs the boring, unscented, heavy-duty moisturizer. 😂 🍓 The same thing happens with food. I may WANT the Halloween candy and ice cream, but I’m also thinking more about protein, fiber, fresh foods, ingredients, and how what I eat supports my body. But with all of this information available to us, how do we know what—or who—to trust? In this episode, we’re talking about some questions I think are worth asking before we buy a product, follow someone's advice, choose a healthcare provider, or believe the latest “miracle” claim on social media. ✨ Who is giving the advice, and are they qualified to give it? ✨ What research or sources are backing up the claims? ✨ Is the research independent, or is the company selling the product doing the research? ✨ What does a company actually mean when it uses words like natural, organic, or low sugar? ✨ Does the brand have a reputation for quality, or did it just appear on social media last week? ✨ What are other people saying consistently across multiple reviews and sources? ✨ And perhaps most importantly… do I actually want or need this, or did social media convince me that I do? I also share a story from when I was younger about a supplement that was marketed to change the body in a significant way — and why that experience has stuck with me when I think about products that can have real effects on our bodies. 🚨 And yes, this includes being thoughtful about things like HRT. HRT can be an important tool for some people navigating perimenopause and menopause, but it isn't a magical one-stop cure for everything. 💜 The goal isn't to be afraid of every product, provider, supplement, or recommendation. It’s to become better consumers of information — especially during a stage of life when there are plenty of people ready to sell us a magic pill, potion, cream, program, or promise. So let’s talk about how we can be a little more curious, a little more skeptical, and a whole lot more informed. What questions, stories, or thoughts do you have to share with me? 📱 Send me a DM on Facebook or Instagram or email me at info@bethlohman.com. Love you lots! 💜 See you next episode!

   Sitting with Emotion - Processing Hard Emotions

   ☕ Grab your coffee and settle in for a chitty-chat about something we all experience: uncomfortable emotions. Midlife brings a lot of change. We may be parenting children through new phases, caring for aging parents, grieving loved ones, navigating career changes, and adjusting to bodies and minds that seem to be changing right along with us. And sometimes? We just have to sit in it. In this episode of Menobodies, we're talking about what it means to feel sadness, guilt, doubt, grief, and other uncomfortable emotions without immediately trying to fix, avoid, numb, or run away from them. Beth shares a recent realization: feeling emotions deeply doesn't mean they have to consume us. We can feel sadness, cry, experience tension or anxiety, and still continue moving through life. 💛 In this episode, we talk about: Why so many Millennials and Gen Xers were never taught how to normalize difficult emotions * What it really means to "sit with" an emotion * Learning to get comfortable feeling uncomfortable * Expanding our emotional window of tolerance * Why feeling sad doesn't automatically mean something is wrong * How movement, breathing, and gentle self-awareness can help emotions lose some of their power * Knowing when an emotion feels too overwhelming to manage alone and when professional support may help Sometimes strength isn't about avoiding hard feelings. Sometimes strength is allowing yourself to feel deeply and trusting that you can move through it. ✨ Menobodies, you are stronger than you think. You are allowed to feel deeply—and still be okay. If you're going through a hard time, you're not alone.
