0:00.0	You are listening to Hit Play, Not Pause, a feisty menopause podcast for active performance-minded women.
0:14.6	I am your host, Celine Yeager. Each week, I bring you advice from athletes, scientists, researchers, and other experts to help you feel and perform you best no matter what your hormones are doing.
0:25.0	This show is a production of Live Feisty Media.
0:30.0	Hello, strong, feisty women.
0:32.9	So it is time for another question and answer episode.
0:37.4	I get a lot of questions. So I try to answer them
0:41.1	in different ways, either doing a whole show on a topic, writing a blog about it, which you can
0:46.6	always sign up for at feistymenopause.com, or talking about it in one of these Q&A episodes.

1:26.7	I have heard from plenty of women who've
1:28.7	had to try a few doctors before they found one that was a good fit, but it is a great place to start.
1:34.2	I'll put a link to that in the show notes, so it's super easy to find. Finding a coach can be a
1:39.5	bit harder, but I invite you to join our private Hit Play not pause Facebook group because you can always go in
1:46.5	there and say, hey, I live here. Are there any coaches around me or if you want a virtual coach?
1:52.5	You can just go in there and look around, connect with people. I know many women who have found
1:58.1	programs and coaches that work for them in that group.
2:01.3	And I'll put a link to that in the show notes as well.
