An excellent and timely book for me. I think the information is helpful for perimenopause as well. There was very helpful practical information, and it addresses the topics that we know about but don't openly talk about. It is a well-ordered listen and gives evidenced-based information as well as real-world anecdotal experiences. Great audiobook!

Finding a way through a new phase in my life has been difficult. My mom passed away over 20 years ago, so I have no one to ask and found this audiobook.
