Longtime trainer and now one of the leaders of the Menopause for Athletes Alumni group, Kerry Ann Madden digs into the nuts and bolts of getting started, whether you’re self-coaching or working with clients.

of Live Feisty Media. Hello, strong, feisty women. So I want to start by thanking everyone

0:35.4

for their thoughtful feedback on last week's episode on

0:38.6

menopausal hormone therapy. I'm always a little apprehensive when I wade into those kinds of
