Now 20 years Post Menopause she is able to share with us why Menopause is so much more than the end of bleeding. From suicidal ideation through divorce to dancing on stage and celebrating herself, Freddy now shares her knowledge and experience with others and the glory of being Post Menopause. “It’s a really interesting thing, that morning when you wake up and think, I don’t give a damn anymore.” In this episode, we discuss her life, her strategies, the impact of declining estrogen on people’s lives, “Menopause is never a solitary experience” and what symptoms she believes you should look out for.
