Great to hear women's voices around menopause. As a menopause researcher there is another Story that needs to be voiced and this is around the opportunities, second chances, access to deep creativity and self- actualization which are all available to us women as we move through our meno years.

The crisis loss narrative has overshadowed the positives to menopause

.Furthermore, the negative framing has disempowered us for decades ,silencing us and preventing access to our agency in our midlife years . I have witnessed and experienced how information understanding and support changes everything. Removing the silence and normalizing the meno conversation just as we do childbirth and pregnancy has to be the future for us
