Menopause is HOT right now! Join Joy & Lorraine as they share their research and thoughts on why menopause is so prevalent in the news, on social media and at the doctor’s office!
Some of the key topics of the discussion include:
- More Open Conversations: Women are finally talking openly about menopause, which is breaking old taboos. For years, it was something people avoided discussing, but now, there’s more focus on supporting women through this stage of life.
- Aging Population: With more women hitting menopause and living longer afterward, there’s a growing need to address the specific health and lifestyle issues that come with it. So, naturally, it’s becoming more of a hot topic.
- Celebrity Spotlight: Well-known figures, like Michelle Obama and Naomi Watts, are sharing their personal experiences with menopause. This is huge because when celebrities talk about it, it helps normalize the conversation and encourages others to open up.
- Workplace Changes: More companies are starting to recognize the impact of menopause on women at work. Some are even introducing policies or wellness programs that support women going through this transition, which helps bring the issue into the spotlight.
- Booming Wellness Industry: There’s a growing market for menopause-related products—everything from hormone therapy to skincare. As companies focus more on this group, it’s naturally drawing more attention to the topic.
