Lifespan, Healthspan, and Peakspan: What You Do in Menopause Shapes the Next 40 Years - Zora Benhamou
About this episode
Have you ever thought about what your life will actually feel like at 80, not just how long you'll live, but how well? Or do you avoid thinking about aging altogether because honestly, it kind of terrifies you?
We cover:
-
The difference between lifespan, healthspan, and peakspan, and why most of us are spending decades in the gap between them
-
What a landmark paper says about when our bodies actually peak, and why that timing matters so much for women in midlife
-
Why menopause is not a decline but actually the most strategic window of your life
-
The real reason so many women dread aging, and a different way to think about it that changes everything
-
A simple, kind of surprising CTA that will help you actually meet your 80-year-old self
