We’re joined by Kelley DeFilippis from Pittsburgh’s own Menopause Wellness Center for our first deep dive into the medical side of perimenopause, menopause, hormones, and what the hell is happening to women starting as early as our mid-30s. Because let’s be honest…how many of us have looked at our bodies and thought: “Is this normal?” “Why is my body suddenly doing THAT?” “Am I losing my mind?” “Why didn’t anyone tell me this was coming?!” Kelley gets into the NITTY GRITTY. We’re talking hormones, symptoms, treatment options, hormone replacement therapy, the studies that shaped women’s healthcare, the myths that have stuck around, and why so many women have spent years being dismissed, minimized, or told to simply “deal with it.” And we’re not just talking about what’s happening—we’re talking about what women can actually DO. This is a BIG conversation about being informed, advocating for ourselves, supporting each other, and changing the way we talk about women’s health. It’s spicy. It’s honest. It’s occasionally hilarious. And yes…there are definitely moments where we’re all looking at each other like ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! 😂 If you’ve ever wondered what is actually happening to your body during perimenopause, press play. And then send this episode to the woman who needs to hear it. 💜 ✨ Welcome to the iceberg that is menopause. We’re going under the surface.
