Today on the podcast, we have one of our most loved returning guests; naturopathic doctor and best-selling author Lara Briden. In this beautiful conversation with Tahnee, Lara dispels menopausal fallacies replacing them with profound knowledge and biological facts about what this sacred transition within the female body/psyche represents.
