Menopause is finally having a moment, but with more conversation has come a whole lot more confusion. In this solo episode, Karen breaks down the three camps she sees in the menopause conversation: women who are informed and empowered, women who shame or dismiss HRT, and the large group of women who are still suffering without answers.

We’ll be discussing the use of hormone therapy, sharing our personal experiences with managing weight during menopause, and talking about the saturation of blood sugar info on social media.
