Episode 34 - Menopause and new friendships

For so long, we’ve been told that menopause is the beginning of the end—but what if it’s actually a new beginning? In this episode of Menopause, Melanin, and Aging Like a Queen, I’m flipping the script on midlife and sharing why menopause is an opportunity to rediscover yourself, find new passions, and build the life you truly desire.

I’ll be diving into:
✨ Why so many of us lose ourselves in motherhood, marriage, and careers—and how menopause gives us the chance to reclaim our identity.
✨ The power of making new friendships in midlife and how to find your new sisterhood.
✨ How to bring joy back into your life by reconnecting with hobbies, adventure, and self-care.
✨ My personal transformation in Costa Rica—and why I’m hosting my first Flip Flops & Hot Flashes retreat to help other women experience their own rebirth.

Midlife is not a crisis—it’s a calling. A chance to say YES to yourself. Are you ready to embrace this new chapter? Tune in now and let’s start the journey together!
