I think the most radical experiences for me have been forgiveness for myself, for not being perfect, forgiveness of others for not being perfect, and acceptance, just accepting the life I have and not the life I wish I'd had.
How do you cope when your body changes overnight? In this episode, Valeria Teles sits down with Anna Sullivan, a writer, speaker, and licensed mental health therapist, to talk about her unexpected journey through medically-induced menopause. Diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer at just 37, Anna's treatment led her into sudden menopause, bringing a wave of physical and emotional challenges she never anticipated.
Anna's story is not just about survival; it's about thriving and reclaiming every aspect of her life, from her sex life to her sense of self.

This episode sheds light on the complexities of menopausal experiences and emphasizes the importance of open dialogue and holistic healing.
Whether you're going through menopause or supporting someone who is, Anna's insights offer a compassionate and relatable perspective that can help navigate this challenging time.
