What really happens during menopause and why does no one talk about it honestly?

In this Women’s Day special episode of Project Life, journalist Ann Marie McQueen shares her deeply personal journey through menopause, midlife, and finding herself again. With over 30 years in journalism, Ann opens up about women’s health, the emotional and physical changes of perimenopause, and why society misunderstands this important stage of life.

We discuss the real truth about menopause, from brain fog and anxiety to identity, relationships, and the pressure women face in their 40s and 50s.

This conversation also explores how journalism has changed, how misinformation spreads in the digital age, and why women must learn to listen to their own bodies and needs.

One powerful message from this episode: “Figure out what you really want, not what the world tells you to want.”
