People keep sending me these photos and I love them all so much! 🥹🧡

A Pulitzer & a Peabody!! What an unbelievable 2 days! This feels like undeniable proof that Indigenous stories matter & that we should support Indigenous people to tell them. We are so grateful to survivors who shared with us & hope this means more people will hear their voices.

@Oprah @DrewBarrymore @mariashriver @smalonemd @heatherhirschMD @AnneFulenwider @alloywomen What is “normal” when it comes to menopause? Hint: Nothing Here, @Osunsweetnsour and @jweisswolf explain why trying to define what’s normal for all women will likely leave Black women behind.

I have been doing Menopause Workplace Educational Talks for the past 2 years now, and they are always well received. Employers understand the value of supporting this elite workforce.

Thanks to the Toronto Star for including myself & other experts in this article today.

[Amanda Thebe @amandathebex]

We live on average 33.3 years after menopause.
A real opportunity for women for women to charge of their health - and it doesn't need to be complicated.

We can live to 81 years average - 1/3 of our life!

Let's do this resiliently!

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

In the United States of America, we respect the rights and dignity of all families. Jill and I stand with the incredibly brave transgender children, their parents, and families around the country, and we will continue to fight for a future where all children can thrive.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

The Department of Health and Human Services has announced several actions to keep transgender children in Texas and their families safe — putting the state of Texas on notice that their discriminatory actions put children’s lives at risk.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

In recent days, elected leaders in Texas have launched a cynical and dangerous campaign targeting transgender children and their parents. These actions are terrifying many families in Texas and beyond. And they must stop.

In 1995, Dudley George was killed by a police sniper after three days of occupying land near his traditional territory that had been taken by the federal government. I have been thinking about him a lot these days—especially when I see photos of protesters in hot tubs.
