Cyndi and Carren have begun to experience the symptoms of menopause, neither of them are prepared to put up with the discomforts and talk about what they are doing. HRT and drugs are not an option. Listen in as they tell their stories and what they are doing about becoming an even better version of health than they already are. Kim smirks throughout the whole hour. If you could only see her face. But she does come up with one good quote after the hour. “Investigate and Educate don’t complain and complicate”.
