Menopause Reimagined with Andrea Donsky

Welcome to the Menopause Reimagined podcast. I'm your host, Andrea Donsky. I'm a Nutritionist (18 years) and I'm IN menopause. I'm a Menopause Educator and Menopause Researcher.
I have some exciting news to share! Our podcast we recently named one of the Top 10 most popular menopause podcasts globally by Feedspot! We are honored and appreciate all of your support.
Today I'm speaking with Jancee Dunn. She's a New York Times bestselling author of nine books, including a memoir and a biography of Cindy Lauper. Her last book, How Not To Hate Your Husband After Kids was published in 12 languages. She's a frequent contributor to the New York Times, Vogue, and Health.
She was a columnist at GQ and at O, the Oprah magazine. She lives in New Jersey with her husband, the author Tim Vanderbilt and their daughter, and now she's the author of Hot and Bothered, What No One Tells You About Menopause, and How to Feel Like Yourself Again.
