What if everything you know about menopause is wrong? Former TV journalist Tamsen Fadal joins me on the Habits and Hustle podcast to share how a live television hot flash changed her life and sparked a global conversation about the menopause transition that affects 1 billion women worldwide. We discuss the surprising 100+ symptoms of menopause and why doctors aren't educated about this life stage. We also dive into dating and marriage during menopause, the workplace challenges women face, and why strength training beats cardio for women over 40.
