Emmy winning journalist Tamsen Fadal is with me talking her new book "How to Menopause," and how to navigate unexpected life shifts. Tamsen Fadal is an Emmy Award-winning journalist, author, documentary filmmaker, and social media’s “midlife mentor.” After more than three decades as a news anchor, Tamsen made the bold decision to pivot her career toward women’s advocacy. From the bedroom to the boardroom, she serves as a best friend, guide, and one-stop resource for everything women need to thrive during midlife and beyond. With a passionate and loyal social media audience of more than 4 million and over 50 million monthly views, Tamsen leverages decades of journalism experience to provide actionable tools from dozens of world- renowned experts on topics ranging from wellness to fashion. Tamsen is the creator and executive producer of the groundbreaking documentary, The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause (PBS), which has galvanized a global movement. It has been viewed by over 1 million women in 350+ cities, 42 countries, and led to thousands of screenings around the world. Her latest book, How To Menopause: Take Charge of Your Health, Reclaim Your Life, and Feel Even Better than Before (Hachette), will be available in March of 2025. How To Menopause is the “talk” most women never had, which answers the questions they’ve been too nervous to ask. It is the expert-driven, girlfriend- approved menopause manual that cuts through the chaos so women in midlife can take back control of their bodies, their confidence, and their lives. Tamsen’s candor and relatability have taken her from the boardroom to the stage at SXSW to Capital Hill, where she advocates for policies that eliminate the stigma of menopause and foster an environment where women feel empowered to embrace their midlife transition, finding joy, confidence, and fulfillment through every life stage. She also regularly appears in the media, including Oprah Daily, The Today Show, The New York Times, and The Harvard Business Review. Tamsen holds a certificate in holistic health coaching from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, serves on the national board of Let’s Talk Menopause, and is a strong voice in the fight against breast cancer, having lost her mother to the disease in 1990. Tamsen currently lives in New York City and Santa Monica with her husband Ira Bernstein.
