On Saturday, I had the privilege of discussing how to find joy and pleasure during menopause with somatic healer, couples coach, and sexpert, Juliette Karaman-van Schaardenburg. The menopausal transition, often accompanied by debilitating physical symptoms, is frequently portrayed as a challenging life cycle. It is no wonder that so many women cringe at the term, and experience anxiety about "the transition." To these women, I have a message. I see you. You are not alone. And, you may just want to listen to my full conversation with Juliette, who explains this time as one of self-discovery, healing, and renewed pleasure....

Despite everyone from Naomi Watts and Halle Berry to Drew Barrymore and Oprah shouting from the proverbial rooftops about the menopausal transition, the conversation is still largely taboo in the workplace.

I've called this season of my life a great many things--from midlife awakening to a cocoon of hell and everything in between. 

Perimenopause is hard. I have found some practices that have been helpful and have included them in this post!
