Hot Or Just Me with Guest Carin

What happens when you mix creativity, entrepreneurship, and a commitment to breaking taboos? You get Carin, a visionary who traded her graphic designer hat for the role of the first woman to launch a Scotch whiskey brand and later, the founder of "Hot or Just Me." Carin candidly shares her journey through perimenopause—a topic often whispered about but rarely addressed openly—and how her struggles with symptoms like hot flashes and brain fog inspired her to build a supportive resource hub for women. Her story, which even caught the attention of Time magazine, is a beacon of hope for many who felt alone in their midlife transitions.

Join us as we navigate the thrilling yet challenging waters of midlife hormonal changes, not just for women but for men too. We shed light on the often-overlooked topic of menopause and the glaring lack of medical training available to address it effectively. Discover ways to embrace this life stage with grace, from prioritizing self-care to fostering open conversations with loved ones, and even drawing parallels to andropause. Together, we aim to create a culture of understanding and support, encouraging families to openly share and educate younger generations about these changes. With humor and openness, let’s celebrate this phase of life as a privilege rather than a predicament.
