I’ll never stop reminding you this is a normal transition, that shame and stigma have no place here, and that not only is this going somewhere good – we are actually entering the most powerful time of our lives.⁠

That is why I founded Hotflash inc, a community of savvy, smart, hopeful, curious, creative and contemplative people, to provide balanced, unbiased coverage of all the latest news, research, public policy, tech, economics, business, podcasts, products, experts and more.⁠

At Hotflash inc our expert panel is a collective of curious, open-minded, and forward-thinking leaders who balance confidence with humility.⁠

They stay sharp by diving deep into research, listening to their patients and clients, and keeping a pulse on the evolving landscape.⁠

They’re not afraid to challenge their own perspectives — or change their approach when the evidence calls for it.⁠

No single expert has all the answers to a woman’s peri/menopause journey. That’s why we bring so many voices to the table.⁠

🎙️I talk to Paula in episode 92 of The Hotflash inc podcast and why she wants you to go low and slow on HRT.⁠
