Perimenopause is a Power Shift: Rewriting the Narrative on Women’s Health — Live with Dr Libby Weaver, Lara Briden & Ali Daddo | World Menopause Day 2025

50 minutes

There was something so powerful about being in a room full of women who were ready to change the story around menopause.

I sat down with three incredible women, Dr. Libby Weaver, Lara Briden and Ali Daddo, for a real and open conversation about perimenopause, menopause and everything that comes with it. We talked about why so many women feel caught off guard, how we’ve been taught to fear this time in our lives, and what it really means when our bodies start to shift.

This is not the end. It’s not something to be afraid of. It’s a power shift. We laughed, shared personal stories, and talked about how we can move through this season with strength, knowledge and support. This chat will leave you feeling more connected and a whole lot more hopeful.

Key Takeaways

Perimenopause Is a Power Shift – This is not a decline. It’s a powerful time of transition and growth.

Iron Deficiency Is Often Overlooked – Fatigue, brain fog and low mood are not always hormonal. They can often come back to low iron.

Menopause Is a Natural Part of Life – Women have always gone through it. We just haven’t been encouraged to talk about it.

Your Nervous System Matters Most – When stress runs high, symptoms hit harder. Calming your nervous system helps everything else work better.

Symptoms Are Temporary – Perimenopause can be intense but it doesn’t last forever. Things can improve and they do.

Every Woman’s Story Deserves Space – There isn’t one right way to experience this. We all move through it differently and that’s completely okay.
