Dialing In: Tuning Out The Noise and Tuning Into Yourself

Welcome to Season 2 of This Is Menopause! In this powerful opening episode, Dr. Christy Guepet and Dr. Angela McCool-Pearson return to the mic with big new energy—and an even bigger mission.

They kick things off by exposing why the standard medical approach to menopause so often fails women—and what needs to change. From the long shadow of the WHI trial to the rushed, checklist-driven doctor visits many women experience today, they break down why hormonal care has been misunderstood, mishandled, and undervalued for decades.

Dr. G and Dr. P share their own professional and personal journeys—how they found each other, how they chose to go beyond the “standard of care,” and what they’ve learned from treating thousands of women and going through menopause themselves.

They introduce the ”dial” metaphor—a powerful visual tool to help women understand how to tune their unique menopause experience across domains like sleep, nutrition, hormones, stress, and connection.
