Getting older is mind-fuck after mind-fuck, but as we approach perimenopause and menopause, we’re sick of being told that everything has to suck from now on. We don’t accept the idea that all of a sudden we can never build muscle or that our hormones will prevent us from enjoying our lives, and luckily for us, people like Dr. Stephanie Estima exist. Today Jill and Dr. Stephanie are chatting everything to do with perimenopause, women’s bodies as we age, the importance of stress reduction, and valuing ourselves as much as we value the people in our lives. We all deserve to feel happy, healthy, and sexy as we age—Dr. Stephanie is on a mission to lead us there.
