Description

The decline of estrogen during menopause can feel like your body has lost its armor, says Wanjira Njenga, a certified health, wellness and menopause coach. In this episode, Wanjira and Surabhi explore what really happens when estrogen declines during menopause and how to fill that gap—not with fear or fads, but with strength, science, and sustainable support.

Wanjira breaks down why menopause feels like puberty all over again, and how to work with your body, not against it. From understanding your hormones to building a lifestyle that supports your body, sleep, and sanity, we’re throwing out outdated advice and giving you tools rooted in real science and lived experience. From muscle-building, weight gain, hot flashes and heart health to busting extreme diet myths and managing stress, this episode unpacks the real tools people need to navigate menopause with confidence. It’s time to stop powering through and start powering up!
