In this episode, Gina shares the challenges and opportunities that she faced in midlife. While going through her menopause transition, Gina was met with a cancer diagnosis, and a move across the country. Gina also goes into detail about working in a competitive environment, and how she navigated menopause symptoms and feeling “not cool” in her workplace amongst younger colleagues. She describes her new perspective on life: “And my husband and I adopted this ‘say yes’ attitude to things, we say yes to as many things as we possibly can. If we have the time, we'll find the money, if we have the money, we find the time.”
