About.There's no reason for menopause to be a mystery. There's no reason for us to speak about it only behind closed doors or to not speak about it at all. There's no reason for anyone to be unsure of symptoms or not to know what's going on with their body. So let's mainstream what's going on. Let's normalize menopause.

Established in 1971I mean, I was born in 1971. Which places me smack dab in my 50s (score one for Gen X!) and starting to experience menopause symptoms. And I'm questioning why I had to question what those symptoms were. I want to mainstream knowledge about menopause, menopause symptoms, ways to relieve them, and how to get support.

My GoalNo one should feel alone going through menopause. We need support, in the form of trained medical professionals and in the form of others who are experiencing "the change." My goal is to help at least one other person feel less alone, which hopefully will start to create a community of people who can all normalize menopause.
