Lynette Sheppard is such an important voice in the menopause space because she has such depth of experience and context for this conversation. The former nurse/manager, artist, speaker, advocate and more has, for 17 years now, been the author of The Menopause Goddess Blog. She started it, and gathered a group of 15 women around her, when "the change" started and "really whooped her upside the head".

Lynette beautifully straddles the space between allopathic and naturopathic worlds, and so she's right there in the moderate middle and has some really great insight about how to pull from both of them in these overloaded, binary times we live in. She's also on the other side of this transition and has some really key words for those of us wondering if we will ever make it and if we do, whether it will be better than this.

Highlights:

• Why you should feel good about taking HRT
• The difference in approaches between allopathic and naturopathic medicine
• Why the medical establishment is so stubborn
• Why perimenopause is no time to make any sudden moves
• What happens when you get past the horror of the symptoms
• Why you need your own a group of goddessess
• How men seem to change as they get older (menopause)
• Why she thinks lifestyle changes might matter most
• Some really useful relationship and sex life advice
• Why you need to be kinder and gentler to yourself, now more than ever
• Why you need your own Menopause Goddess circle
