Thank you so much Chandan for sharing your story on the podcast with us today. I really enjoyed our chat, and here are some of my top takeaways:

1. No two women experience the same perimenopausal or menopausal journey. What works for your sister or your friend may not necessarily work for you. It’s important to listen, to read and to talk and share.
2. Friends, we need to see our doctors during this time of our lives. Hopefully you will have a doctor that will understand the very real changes and challenges you may be dealing with.
3. For Chandan, discovering aromatherapy was a game changer. She felt crushed, and through self-care and aromatherapy, she found herself again.
4. One thing that really stuck with me during the chat was when Chandan said that she knew what was going on, but she was not ready to accept it.
5. Although there are many cultural differences when it comes to the menopausal journey throughout the world, I think it is fair to say that until very, very recently menopause the world over was a taboo topic.
6. We need to come forward and have these kinds of conversations. Women need to know what to do when it happens. Girls and boys need to be educated about the menopausal journey.
7. Chandan’s Siya Wellness is a commitment to helping others as they navigate the mayhem of middle age.

Many thanks Chandan for coming onto the podcast and really talking with us.
