I just put out a mega episode on Menopause, Perimenopause, and aging with intention with 3 interview subjects. It's called "Hot Menopause Summer" and there's a companion piece here on Substack too. My podcast is called "Actual People" and this was my season 1 finale. I'm really proud of it. It's funny, insightful, and helped me see we're all in this together. It's not a perfect time in life but no time in life is. There are so many great things about being past the angst of the child-bearing years.

I would add Stacy Sims whose book Next Level is a must-read for women wanting to stay active and be at their physical best during peri and menopause.

I'm also a health coach who helps women over 40 lose unwanted weight and have a free FB group where I share a ton of evidence-based information and strategies:

Great list! Thanks for taking the time to write up these resources. It can absolutely feel like a full-time job researching everything we need to know about perimenopause and how best to manage symptoms. We're also told we need to be our own best health advocates, but how the heck do we do that too? Go to medical school?

I donate my time to write my free Substack publication, The Periprofessional, to bring awareness and education to all women by providing science-based information that won't bore you to tears! https://theperiprofessional.substack.com/

I highly recommend Sarah the Menopause Naturopath

She is Australian and got her health/hormones back in balance naturally.

Jeff Butterworth, Happy Hormones is a life saver for me. Herbal remedy that I take daily. I wouldn’t be without it. He has so much information to share.

Once you read this information you’ll never look at menopause the same again.
