Be Your Own Advocate with Tamsen Fadal's How To Menopause Mar 26, 2025

Show notes

When it comes to the topic of menopause, we have had physicians and experts share invaluable information, expertise and research with our listeners. This week we are sharing a more personal experience.

Emmy award winning journalist Tamsen Fadal started her menopause journey with a hot flash while anchoring a live newscast. Fast forward several years later, Tamsen is no longer a news anchor but her journalistic nature has led her to co-producing THE M FACTOR documentary and writing her new book: HOW TO MENOPAUSE: Take Charge of Your Health, Reclaim Your Life, and Feel Even Better than Before.

How to Menopause answers all the questions you didn't know to ask, and brings you into a conversation with millions of other women.

Gloria Reuben Talks Career, Midlife and Hot Flashes Mar 05, 2025

Show notes

We love Gloria Reuben! She is an incredible actress, author and singer and now she is joining forces with Astellas to share how Veozah has improved her health.

Many will remember Gloria Reuben for her iconic portrayal of Jeanie Boolet on ER. In the 1990's, she was one of the first actors on a top rated show to portray someone living with HIV. She has continued to portray characters of with strong and determined voices and can now be seen in Elsbeth and The Better Sister.

We talk about how she feels joining the 60+ club and how she is enjoying this time of life. One thing she definitely did not enjoy, however, was hot flashes. She has joined forces with Astellas Pharmaceuticals to talk about her personal experiences and how Veozah (the first FDA non-hormonal approved medication for moderate to severe hot flashes) has improved her quality of life.
