This week on For Mannerless Women, Adelle sits down with Veronica, founder of The Ova Circle and a certified menopause workplace coach, to unpack what it really means to thrive through menopause. Veronica opens up about her personal journey, from confusing symptoms and dismissive doctors to discovering perimenopause, finding her voice, and building a thriving community for women going through the same. She breaks down the gaps in healthcare, the power of holistic approaches, and why it’s time for workplaces to become menopause-friendly. Together, Adelle and Veronica explore:
The difference between menopause and perimenopause.How shame and silence isolate women in this phase.Building a toolkit that actually supports you, from lifestyle changes to medical options.Why African women’s menopause stories must be centered in our data and media.Refusing to disappear, aging loudly, proudly, and mannerlessly.If you’ve ever felt unseen or unprepared for this phase of womanhood, this episode will leave you informed, validated, and inspired.
