Send Lauri a message

It’s 2026 — and somehow, we’re still not talking enough about menopause.

In this unfiltered minisode, Lauri and her friend and fellow coach Kelly Myerson swap real stories about navigating hormonal shifts, medical gaslighting, and the mystery symptoms so many women are told to “just live with.”

From sleepless nights to sudden clarity, they shed light (and laughter) on what really happens when your hormones start changing — and why breaking the silence might be one of the most powerful things you can do.

If you’ve ever thought, “Is it just me?” — this one’s for you.

TAKEAWAYS

1. You’re not crazy — it’s chemistry. Midlife challenges are hormonal, not personal failings.
2. You’re not too young. Hormonal changes can start in your 30s or early 40s, and early diagnosis matters, and your body deserves care, not confusion.
3. Self-advocacy is essential. Don’t let “You’re fine” be the final word. Keep asking, researching, and trusting your body.
4. Talking about it helps everyone. Speaking openly about menopause breaks stigma and builds community.
5. There’s hope (and help). From holistic care to hormone therapy, relief and renewal are possible.
