Lead, Don’t Follow: Zora Benhamou on Menopause; Healthy Ageing; Roots; and People Pleasing

Gerontologist, biohacker and advocate for women’s health during the menopausal journey, Zora Benhamou, is also a host of “Hack my Age” podcast. Zora’s motto is “Menopause is inevitable, but suffering is optional.” Zora lost her Ukrainian mom Anastasia to breast cancer at the tender age of 23. She shares her mother’s lessons on never forgetting where you come from; taking care of yourself by always looking your best, while also caring for your health; death being a solitary experience; and not caring what people think. Zora also talks about her work with menopause, about making healthy choices, about being a nomad and raising multi-cultural children, and wishing her mom taught her the importance of being financially independent.  You can learn more about Zora on her website here, and listen to her podcast here.  To subscribe to Ana's new "Mama Loves…” newsletter, please go here.  To learn more about "Thank You, mama" creative writing workshop, visit here.
