Game on for the 50-plus with David Stewart
Gennev: Let's talk about menopause
Culturally, we have this idea that life slows at 50. Children are grown and gone, we're looking into retirement, our days of doing new things and surprising ourselves are over. Life past 50, if you look at the marketing for this age group, is mostly about fear: fear over health, fear over finances, fear of the future.

Sexuality, sexual health, and menopause with Dr. Barb DePree
Gennev: Let's talk about menopause
Two companies helping women regain sexual health in menopause are Gennev and MiddlesexMD.
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.
Listen to the podcast, then come over to Gennev.com to learn more about how to manage menopause to have an easier, better, healthier transition.
