I watched this video and felt sadness at first. In the video, the woman tells a story about her partner (a man) not wanting to go out with her because she was “too old, I don’t want to be seen with you in public.” She is honest about aging and how she feels about it. It inspires me to be honest and share that aging has been challenging for me. The beauty of it is I have had to turn to others to ask for help. I did get support from friends and strangers.
I would like to continue the chain of support by creating a support group that you are invited to attend. We will talk about menopause, what it means, how it impacts your life and what you can do to manage it. Every woman I speak to has so much to offer, I would like to honor that.
The video is 9 minutes and 44 seconds long. Close to 10 minutes. If you don’t have time, look at yourself and say one positive statement. You are beautiful and you should be celebrated. We all should be models.
