This week on The Perinatal Podcast, I’m joined by my #Team85 sister, Lauren Tetenbaum, to talk about her new book Millennial Menopause: Preparing for Perimenopause, Menopause, and Life’s Next Period.
We dive into the realities of this major life shift—the curiosity it requires, the bullshit we’ve been taught about “not being a bother,” and why treating symptoms (not just the diagnosis) matters. From rage and irritability to sleep struggles and identity shifts, we explore how to build your support squad, practice self-compassion, and remember: perimenopause is not your new identity.
