Summary
Emmy Award-winning journalist / author Tamsen Fadal opens up about her perimenopause journey. She breaks down the early warning signs that most women dismiss or never connect to hormones at all: The brain fog, the anxiety, the sleep disruption, the irregular cycles and symptoms that quietly creep in. The gang gets into the frustrating reality of medical gaslighting, the dismissals, the "you're just stressed," the years women lose waiting for a doctor to take them seriously. Tamsen is clear: the system isn't set up to help us, which means we have to help ourselves.
