Money Mindset and Personal Finance for First Gen Latinas: Ching@ Tu Money®
Let's Talk Menopause: Symptoms, Advocating For Yourself and Finding Community w/Kristy Ward of Menopause Mijas
Ep. 45
•
#45: When's the last time you thought about menopause? 💸
For me, it was 'I don't really think about it'. Until, I met the founder of a community organization called 'Menopause Mijas'.
- In this episode, founder Kristy Ward breaks down perimenopause, menopuase, and post menopause - including symptoms and emotional impact
- Then, we talk personal experience, advocating for yourself, community support y mas!
- Finally, we round out the episode by visiting one of my favorite websites: Reddit. In a forum with the question, 'I am terrified of perimenopause/ menopause. Can someone please convince me that life isn’t over?', Moonflower_77 explains to us why for her, 'menopause is a bridge to strength and wholeness'.
