227. Self-Compassion and Menopause with Jessica Flanigan Brown

Perimenopause and menopause are natural transitions the female body experiences; they're endocrine transitions (hormone transitions, like getting your period or experiencing pregnancy). When clinical nutritionist Jessica Flanigan Brown began to experience signs of menopause, she became appalled at the lack of compassionate emotional and physical support for women and people experiencing this transition from the medical community and culture at large. Join Lucia today for her conversation with Jessica on how to cultivate self-compassion and why this emotional skill is crucial for the increasing numbers of people who are, and will continue, to live longer and experience more years during this time of life than any previous generation.
