245: Puberty + Menopause: How Are We Supposed to Cope?!?

When your hormones are downshifting and your teen’s hormones are surging, it can feel like an emotional collision course. If you’ve ever wondered why your tween or teen seems moody, distant, or irritated (and you’re also running out of patience and estrogen), this episode is for you. Psychologist Dr. Lisa Damour and journalist Reena Ninan unpack the double whammy of puberty and menopause under one roof: Why it feels so intense, what’s actually happening biologically, and how families can navigate it with more empathy and less guilt. Lisa also opens up about her personal experience with menopause and how finally seeking treatment changed everything. 💡 YOU’LL LEARN: - Why menopause symptoms are real medical symptoms, and what kinds of treatment and support to ask for - What’s normal about your teen’s mood swings and distance - How to connect with your teen, even if they don’t want to talk - How understanding the hormonal and developmental changes in both generations can ease the tension at home This episode helps parents understand what’s normal for their teens (and what’s happening within themselves) so they can respond with more calm, connection, and compassion.
