We all want to achieve wellness, but how many of us have a clear understanding of what it is or how to measure it? Some believe it’s meeting a certain set of metrics around health. Others see it as becoming a more effective self-advocate when navigating our health challenges, or creating a balance in work, fitness, and family that promotes a sense of well-being. However we define wellness, we can all use advice from thoughtful people about how to find it for ourselves. That’s the mission of Slate’s new podcast ‘Well, Now.’ Each week, our expert hosts will tackle a new issue around wellness, from the latest exercise craze, to the controversy over BMI, to the best ways to promote sleep hygiene. Every episode aims to give listeners a new understanding of wellness, and how to reach it.

For many, the holiday season is both a joyful time with friends and family and a period of high stress with dangerous ways to cope.

More Than Hot Flashes: Breaking the Silence on Menopause

More than half the population will experience menopause if they’re fortunate enough to age. Yet so much of this full-body transformation remains a mystery. Journalist and filmmaker Tamsen Fadal [https://www.tamsenfadal.com/] is out to change that.  Her new documentary The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause [https://www.pbs.org/show/the-m-factor-shredding-the-silence-on-menopause/?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAgJa6BhCOARIsAMiL7V8ljA_-P1NHRWewszsWVc9RWobYctzqMwF8PsgWbjCAKWdORHPtFWIaAonoEALw_wcB] premiered on PBS earlier this year. In it, her team interviews patients and health experts worldwide about the lack of research into this important stage of life. On this week’s episode of Well, Now Kavita and Maya ask her what can be done to better care for the millions of women experiencing it now and in the future.
