Episode Synopsis


Ever feel like you’re bombarded with impossible standards? Societal expectations aren’t just coming from Hollywood and the media anymore - they are all over social media. In today’s episode, I tackle a tough topic: why the challenges women face in perimenopause aren't our fault. I dive into unrealistic societal expectations, the shady side of menopause marketing, and how influencers can sometimes mislead us. It’s all about finding reliable information and creating a support system!

Today we cover:

Unrealistic societal expectations from media and social platforms impose unattainable beauty and youth standards on women
How misinformation and marketing gimmicks make navigating unregulated menopause supplements and diet fads challenging
Menopause influencers can offer personal insights but often promote untested products
The importance of reliable health guidance and encouraging the integration of menopause education into medical, pharmacy, and nursing programs
