Navigating Menopause: Health, Intimacy, and Self-Care

In this episode of The goop Podcast, Gwyneth sits down with Dr. Mary Claire Haver—board-certified OB-GYN, certified menopause practitioner, and author of The New Menopause—to reshape the conversation around menopause. 

For too long, menopause has been misunderstood, leaving many women feeling unprepared and unheard. Dr. Haver is working to change that. She breaks down what we should have been taught about menopause, the real story on hormone therapy, and why this phase of life is still so overlooked in medical education. She also shares practical ways to support our bodies—through nutrition, sleep, and muscle health—so we can feel our best.

She also opens up about her own experience: why she left traditional OB-GYN to focus solely on menopause, the six key shifts that have made the biggest difference for her patients, and how prioritizing herself has changed everything—her confidence, her relationships, and even her sex life.

Menopause isn’t something we just have to get through—it’s a transition worth understanding and an opportunity to take ownership of our health in a whole new way.
