About this episode

Dr. Fiona Lovely discusses reframing menopause as a powerful transition and addresses the emotional and physical challenges women face during this stage.

Reframe menopause as a powerful brain-and-body transition rather than a quiet slide into frailty. With over 20 years of clinical experience, Dr. Fiona Lovely, host of Not Your Mother’s Menopause , explores misdiagnosed symptoms, the emotional toll of grief and identity shifts, and how women at any stage (from curious younger listeners to postmenopausal veterans) can learn to trust their bodies.
