Join Us for This Week’s Episode of A Day In Her Life with Lauren Tetenbaum
This week, Ellie sits down with Lauren Tetenbaum, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, upcoming author of Millennial Menopause (out this July!), former lawyer, and mom of two based in New York. Lauren shares how she’s built a meaningful, flexible career while parenting, advocating for women’s mental health, and keeping joy at the center of it all.
What We Discuss:
Slow Starts & Family Mornings: How Lauren structures later mornings to fit her family’s rhythm—and why it works.
Evening Energy: Why her family embraces later nights and how they make the most of that time together.
From Law to Social Work: Lauren’s transition from corporate law to becoming self-employed as a therapist and advocate.
Perinatal to Menopause Advocacy: How her interest in perinatal mental health evolved into a passion for menopause support, leading to her book Millennial Menopause.
Kids & Chores: How she’s introducing responsibility and structure to her children in age-appropriate ways.
Self Care: How label-makers and walks with her dog bring her calm—and how home organization helps her stay grounded.
Fair Play in Action: How Lauren and her husband apply the Fair Play method to divide household responsibilities and mental load.
This episode is packed with relatable insights on career pivots, parenting systems, and learning about each phase as we age.
