  • Episode #74: You deserve to feel amazing into menopause and beyond with Shirley Weir
    Mar 25 2024

    Today, Rhonda welcomes the incredible Shirley Weir to talk all about the phases of our sexual health lives, and how to ensure a healthy, powerful lifestyle while feeling AMAZING through them all!

    Shirley Weir introduces herself as a Menopause Chick. Her perimenopause journey began in her 40s with sleep deprivation, brain fog, anxiety & depression which led Shirley to her doctor’s office, the book store and “Dr. Google,” but she was left feeling confused, overwhelmed and alone.

    From sleep to stress to vulva, vaginal & sexual health, Shirley's research shows that 77% of women have questions, and she has made it her personal mission to ensure 100% of women have access to quality answers.

    Shirley never imagined she’d become a “vagina health evangelist” but back in 2016, she surveyed her online community about what information and education they were craving—and the responses were, overwhelmingly: MORE options for treating vaginal dryness!

    Why? Because vulva and vaginal health are important pillars of overall health—and because over 80% of women experience vaginal dryness in postmenopause—yet less than 4% currently have a viable solution.

    This glaring gap in women’s health is not ok so Shirley has made it her personal mission to bring this statistic DOWN…through quality information, education and thoroughly-researched products...because we all deserve to FEEL AMAZING!
