We Need to Talk About Menopause by Anne Bowker
We Need to Talk about Menopause uses engaging storytelling and sharp analysis to explore the lived experiences of women going through menopause, breaking the silence around a topic that is often considered taboo. Written by a team of psychologists and anthropologists, it aims to provide support, understanding, and visibility for women navigating this major life transition and to reframe menopause as a time of transformation rather than deficiency.
Through the stories of 60 different women, this book explores the physical and emotional toll of menopause, the impacts it can have on work and personal lives, and how these women navigated relationships, aging, and body image in a world that often stigmatizes this transition. This book shares personal stories about intrusive symptoms, feelings of isolation, and the struggle to talk openly about menopause. It encourages women and their families to start honest conversations, learn from each other, and recognize menopause as a unique and transformative experience
It is valuable reading for those going through the menopause transition, their partners, and families, as well as for medical professionals, to hear the stories that don’t often make it to their consultations. Amplifying these voices fosters a collective understanding of menopause as a natural, multifaceted experience.
The authors have created a dedicated website to complement this book, offering a wealth of resources and support for women navigating menopause. Visit https://carleton.ca/conversations-about-menopause/ to explore additional insights, tools, and guidance.

"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
