The M-word. The dreaded, dreaded M-word. Do we dare even go there? Okay, yes, fine, let's. Menopause. We said it. We have to start talking about it. Naomi Watts, one of our all-time favorite actresses, goes there with us. She, herself, experienced early symptoms (hello dryness) in her mid-to-late 30s and it’s time we all stop suffering in silence. She shares her story, how to prepare ourselves in advance, why opening up the conversation is half the battle, and knowing you’re not alone. Plus, she recently launched a fabulous line of products called Stripes that strives to find holistic solutions for women amidst this journey. If she’s the poster child for what this phase of life might look like, you can happily sign us up.    Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.
