  • Ms. Nancy Fisher & Ms. Tunisia Owens - Women's Health Discussion - S004 E011
    • "Myth-Busting Menopause." FREE EVENT
    • Thursday, November 14th from 4-5:30 pm PT
      Registration link is here: ⁠https://ivyleaguesisters.com/summit-2024-november/
      I share my discoveries in my Sub stack BLOG Zevah (⁠https://nantz14.substack.com/⁠). 
      In this enlightening conversation, Nancy Fisher and Tunisia Owens discuss the often-overlooked topic of menopause.

      They explore personal experiences with menopause symptoms, the historical context of women's health, and the significant trust gap in medical care for women.

      The discussion emphasizes the importance of community support, the complexities of hormone therapy, and the empowerment women can find during and after menopause.

      The conversation aims to educate and inspire women to take charge of their health and well-being during this critical phase of life.

      I'm a Dartmouth grad '01, yoga teacher, and mom of two who got side-swiped by a whole host of baffling symptoms beginning in my early forties. 

      I am passionate about science, fitness, nutrition, culture, and exposing the many gaps in women's health.

      I love reading, researching, and experimenting to find the intersection of these passions in supporting my midlife journey.

      I'm grateful for the privilege of spending my time constantly learning. In return and finally getting back to writing (my major),

      Raised by three parents and doctors, I grew up in the religion of science!  I love to get into the physiological and endocrinological weeds, and then translate the science into digestible information that women can use to empower themselves and build informed choice practices for better health and quality of

      life.

      Dr. Jackson discuses the power of friendship is the positive impact that friendships can have on our lives.

      The quality of a friendship is more important than the quantity. It's possible to have a few close friends and loved ones who you can count on, and still have all you need. It's also valuable to have friends who are different from you, as they can offer different perspectives and experiences
