What a powerful perspective shift offered from Clarissa Kristjansson on the way we view our bodies as we age. In this powerful conversation we talked about:

  • The cultural norms that have made us afraid of menopause
  • The way big pharma has used shame and fear as a means of selling agelessness and a “menopause cure” or treatment
  • The idea of health and fitness as a spectrum
  • The role of social media as a tool of shame reinforcement
  • Shame-driven living versus values-driven living
  • The power of a menopause plan
  • The need to see life as an iterative process 
  • The next step in preparing yourself for menopause
  • How to be a “rest rebel”


Clarissa is passionate about empowering women to manage their menopause mind, body and soul. She is the host of the incredibly powerful podcast, Thriving Thru Menopause and in her business, is focused on empowering women, raising awareness and cultivating sae spaces for important conversations.
