On this episode of Info On The Go, we explore menopause not as a single event, but as a powerful journey through three interconnected stages: perimenopause, menopause, and post menopause. We break down the biology, bust myths, and bring clarity to a transition that affects half the world’s population—but is still too often misunderstood or stigmatized.

We’ll explain what’s happening inside the body during each phase, from the first hormone shifts of perimenopause to the long-term health considerations of post menopause. You’ll learn about early and induced menopause, how symptoms vary across individuals, and why support—both medical and emotional—is so crucial.

But this episode goes beyond biology. We take a global look at how menopause is perceived around the world—from Japan’s graceful acceptance to Sweden’s progressive workplace policies. Plus, we dig into the evolutionary science behind menopause and the compelling “grandmother hypothesis,” which suggests that this life stage may have helped shape humanity itself.

Whether you're approaching menopause, in the thick of it, supporting someone who is, or just curious—this episode empowers you with knowledge, empathy, and even a little inspiration. Because menopause isn’t the end. It’s a powerful new beginning.

Thank You for listening and Stay curious,
Kat & William
