This week, JVN is joined by Emmy-winning journalist, author, menopause advocate, and host of The Tamsen Show: Tamsen Fadal! Tamsen shares her personal menopause journey, how it changed her relationship with her body, and why she’s made it her mission to bring more awareness, research, and real talk to the table. Together, they explore how to better support people going through menopause, why age should be celebrated—not stigmatized—and how our hair care routines can evolve with our hormones.
