Gennev: Let's talk about menopause
In this podcast, Omisade speaks with Gennev CEO Jill Angelo about women's obligation and honor to teach younger generations about aging and menopause. As Omnisade says, it's important "to see the trajectory of someone's lived experience" and understand "there's no shelf-life on evolving." Older women have important information to give, about the experience of menopause, and so much more. It's up to us to find opportunities to pass that information along.

Equality in women's health with Denise Pines
Gennev: Let's talk about menopause
There's a gap in the quality of care men and women receive. Women's bodies are less understood, their health issues less researched, their solutions are "treat women as small men," their pain is ignored, etc.
info_outlineMany experience menopause as a time of grief and loss: loss of youth, of reproduction, of a body that looked different, behaved in predictable ways, and seemed easier to control.
To feel some sense of grief at change is totally normal and understandable. But at Gennev, we feel the menopause transition can also be a very positive time to embrace a new you, changed body, changed attitude, new freedoms and all.
To help us understand and navigate this transition, Gennev Health Coach Katie Linville talked with Kathleen Putnam, an expert in grief, loss, and transition.
She gave us new ways of thinking about change and aging, and new strategies to celebrate the new us on the other side of the symptoms.
