Menopause

Deeply Human

Available for over a year

Why do both whales and women go through it? If you think you’re too young to learn about the menopause, you’re wrong. Prepare to be both surprised and entertained - and maybe even rendered a kinder son or daughter. Our understanding of menopause has changed dramatically, and it’s our kindly cousins, the whales that may help explain what it’s for. And Dessa has a heart-to-heart with her dad about her grandmother, exploring the parts of our lives we should share more - generation to generation.
