⚡️This week Alicia gets down to biz with Canadian board certified menopause specialist Amanda Otterman, RN! We dig into busting through all the dangerous misinformation in the online “menoverse”, how we are forced to fight medical misogyny with self advocacy, why the midlife care desert created by the WHI misinformation is GLOBAL, how GLP-1s can work with/against HRT, how confronting medical racism SUCKS, why calling out weight bias in hormonal treatment is essential and how we must start a massive hormonal revolution to SECURE our reproductive rights in this twisted political landscape!

It was an absolute blast talking to Amanda - she's 100% delightful and wildly hilarious. Thank you for sharing your brilliance with us!! And thanks to YOU for listening and supporting the movement! ⚡️
