  • It’s so time for this!

    As a graduate of the menopause coaching certification process at Women of a Certain Stage, I can say with confidence that Lauren is the perfect person to be discussing menopause! It is beyond time that women were given a voice. Knowing that Lauren is here with this podcast talking to women, for women, about this often misunderstood and ignored critical phase of a woman’s life is so reassuring! Each guest has something different to offer and it is all so valuable. Thank you, Lauren!
