Oprah never shies away from being open and honest - and her recent discussion about menopause is no different. Drawing inspiration from Dr. Christiane Northrup's book, “The Wisdom of Menopause”, she became one of the first public figures to talk about the topic with honesty and positivity. And, with her "The Life You Want" class, she has provided people with the necessary tools to navigate perimenopause and menopause fearlessly.
Oprah is no stranger to menopause-related symptoms. In 2019, she wrote an essay detailing her experience with restlessness, heart palpitations and difficulty concentrating. Her aim is to help women, and especially Black women, who research indicates go through menopause 8.5 times earlier than others, to be better prepared and know what to look for as indicators.
Thanks to Oprah, more open conversations about menopause are happening and suffering in silence can be avoided. Let's give her a round of applause for being a menopause advocate and helping to make this previously uncomfortable topic more accessible!
