Episode Details

Menopause is not just a women’s health issue — it’s a life issue. In this episode of Transforming 45, Lisa is joined by Mr. Menopause, Tafiq Akhir, to explore why men belong in menopause conversations and how education, empathy, and communication can transform the menopause experience.

Together, they discuss the realities of perimenopause and menopause, the impact of misinformation, the role men can play as supportive allies, and why women deserve evidence-based care and real support during this transition.

A must-listen for women navigating menopause, partners who want to show up better, and leaders building menopause-aware workplaces.
