  • Up to Speed with Christine Yu

    Up to Speed with Christine Yu
    2023/08/03
    Over the last 50 years, women have made extraordinary advances in athletics, accomplishing incredible feats and smashing long-held beliefs about the limits of their physical capabilities. And yet, the institutions of sport and science have largely ignored the needs of this growing population.     In UP TO SPEED: The Groundbreaking Science of Women Athletes, sports and health journalist Christine Yu disentangles myth and gender bias from real science, making the case for new approaches that can help women athletes excel at every stage of life, from adolescence to adulthood, through pregnancy, menopause, and beyond. She explains the latest research and celebrates the researchers, athletes, and advocates pushing back against the status quo and proposing better solutions to improve the active and athletic lives of women and girls.    Talking about humans and their bodies within the context of sports and science is a tricky endeavor. Both disciplines rely heavily on binary categories that often conflate sex and gender and don’t accurately describe the larger spectrum of sex or gender. Ultimately, the systemic injustices and assumptions embedded in sports and science don’t just affect women and girls. They affect all people. By examining how women and girls are marginalized and excluded, we can start to uncover ways to make these systems more equitable for everyone.     ___________________________________________________________   Do you want all your menopause resources in one place?

Over the course of 16 years she pitched the idea to anyone who would listen , listen they did but no one was interested in a German language film about World War 1 , without a famous actor being involved.    She used all he savings and remortgaged her house to keep her dream alive , but the dream was about to become a nightmare when she was told raise $10,000 or lose the rights to the film.

  • Women Living Better with Nina Coslov

    Women Living Better with Nina Coslov
    2023/06/13
    By age 40 we should know about the menopause transition — when it starts and what happens in our bodies. Women Living Better empowers those on the path to menopause through knowledge and collective experience. But most women don’t and Nina Coslov decided to do something about that.    What started as a “what the heck is going on in my body”, to providing women with clear information about menopause, soon turned into research, as Nina knew there were woeful gaps. In 2020 Nina, Dr. Woods and Dr. Richardson conducted the WLB Survey focusing on better characterizing the experience of the path to menopause, beginning while periods are still coming monthly. As a team, this energetic trio has published six papers in peer-reviewed journals and is working on more.    Nina was honored with the North American Menopause Society’s Media Award in 2021.    Nina truly believes (as do I) that by our late thirties, we will receive anticipatory guidance about what to expect on the path to menopause.   Head over to the Women Living Better for more information and to take their polls!    https://womenlivingbetter.org/  ___________________________________________________________   Do you want all your menopause resources in one place?
