Advocacy and Menopause - Jennifer's Journey

In this episode of What the Pause?!, I sit down with Licensed Professional Counselor Jennifer Naspinski from Philadelphia, PA to talk about her personal menopause journey and why women MUST learn to advocate for themselves. Jennifer shares what it felt like to navigate symptoms while trying to continue showing up professionally, emotionally, and personally, all while realizing how little support many women receive during this transition. We talk about: ✨ The emotional side of menopause ✨ Anxiety, identity shifts, and overwhelm ✨ Why so many women feel ignored in healthcare ✨ The importance of asking questions and pushing for answers ✨ How self-advocacy can completely change your experience Whether you’re in perimenopause, postmenopause, or supporting someone who is, this episode is an important reminder that your symptoms are real, your voice matters, and you deserve care that listens.
