Season 2 wrap up. Grateful to our guests Jenette Goldstein and Betty Goldberg.
The book we read: The Silent Passage by Gail Sheehy.
This is it. This is where are. We are not shy about being in menopause. Happy to talk about it and reflecting on women who are saying they are not ready and it’s a long way off.
Julia mentions her reluctance to be in menopause last year, being angry about it because it meant many things negative things in her mind. "I’m old" being the worst.
Sarah is still not in menopause and is 56! She is fully ready to be DONE with her period.
We have moved into a new phase - we are working on what’s next in our lives.
Season 3 plans - what comes next? Now what do we in our lives now at this new place.
Now with #MeToo - so many changes in our place in the world. And we have to go for it.
Hot Flashes?
Julia’s had warm moments. Suddenly very warm moments. Her new accessory is a hand fan that she keeps in her purse in case of sudden warmth.
Sarah has had none - but sugar or wine after noon will give her hot flashes in teh middle of the night. So she’s changed her habits that way. Also noticed that not getting enough sleep makes her feel hungover.
Do you need more sleep in menopause? We wonder.
Talking about books keeping us awake these days. We wax nostalgic about Sue Grafton and her mystery stories. And the “Keep on Truckin’!” images from the 70’s.
