To go through that.

Sometimes that could be finding an 83-year-old therapist.

Yeah.

Sometimes that can be following a book or methodology or being part of a, since we're talking about women, being part of a circle, a women's circle that gets together.

Yeah, and prioritizing that.

Anything you want to say for the partners, husbands who also might be listening in that are watching the women that they love, maybe it's their wife, maybe it's their sisters, maybe it's their mom, and they're seeing them go through this period of time, this transition, and they want to best support them and be an ally on their journey.

What would be the things you'd want to tell them?

I actually don't know what that is.

Yeah, and I'm sure with your husband, not biologically having gone through the same changes that are there, but life changes that are there too, which you opening up and sharing what you need, anytime you do that with anybody, your kids or anything else like that, where there's that true, beautiful communication, you're now creating a table where that other person also gets to open up as well.

That's right.

And you create this level of communication that is so easily lost.

In every single system, you have to fight for that level of communication to come back, even in a business partnership, even, you know, your relationship with your siblings, but most importantly, of course, your relationship with your partner, your relationship with your kids.

I can't help but to think about, you know, these metaphors that are all kind of coming together, you know.

A very tragic, actual, real-life fire

upended your life.

And here we are talking about this major life transformation that women will go through, perimenopause into menopause, and that feels like an upending.

It feels like an emotional fire.

It feels like your entire world is going upside down.

And yet your message that I'm hearing for you today as we wind down is that just like in an actual fire where you have this, nature always comes back.

Obviously, in the situation of LA and the fires here, there's so many politics and other things.
