A Call to Arms

Menopause Mastery

Women have fought hard for the rights we have today, but right now, we’re facing serious threats that could roll back years of progress. From the days of our grandmothers to today’s battles, there’s a new wave of attempts to take away basic protections like no-fault divorce—which means some women could be trapped in abusive marriages with no way out. This episode digs into the dark undercurrents of cultural and political pressures that keep women fighting for autonomy and safety. And with Menopause Awareness Month here, the timing feels urgent to stand together and protect what matters for ourselves, our daughters, and our granddaughters.

This conversation will give you the inside scoop on what’s happening right now and how these issues affect all of us, no matter where we’re coming from. Together, we can form a united front, no matter our political beliefs, because protecting women’s rights is everyone’s business. It’s time to raise our voices and resist, for us and for future generations. Let’s get real about what it takes to ensure we’re not letting these rights slip away.

And for those of us dealing with perimenopause, there’s some good news on that front. My new Estro Balance Mastery is here to help you feel more like yourself again—two capsules a day to handle those hormone swings, night sweats, and the brain fog that creeps in.

Memorable Quotes:

"It took amendments, laws, decrees over the next 240 years to grant women begrudgingly, in many cases, rights, privileges, and equality to men deemed granted to them by God." — Betty Murray

"If every time a man had sex they risked death, physical disability, social shunning, and life-altering interruptions to their education and career and the sudden lifelong responsibility for another human being, I think they'd expect a choice in the matter." — Betty Murray
