Peeling Back The Curtain (& Bedsheets) To Highlight Misconceptions About Menopause!

We kicked off Asking For A Friend live with cocktails and a candid conversation about a topic that affects every woman eventually: menopause. In this special episode, we’re laying it all out with unfiltered insight and expert perspectives, along with some good laughs about sex, hormones and the real-life experience of aging in a woman’s body.

This episode is for anyone out there who wants honest answers about menopause, hormone health and intimacy — without the awkwardness! 

Everything We're Covering:

  • Why menopause happens 
  • Menopause vs Perimenopause: how to know what you're experiencing 
  • What a DUTCH test is and how it can reveal hormone imbalances
  • Root-cause treatment options that go beyond symptom masking
  • Is "Man O Pause" a real thing for men?
  • The sad realization that alcohol and menopause don’t mix well
  • The truth about declining libido and what to do about it
  • Tips for navigating this new phase with confidence, connection and compassion
