Episode 229 - I Asked. You Answered. The Next Chapter Begins

After four years of hosting this podcast, I kept thinking about the show's future. I wondered if I should make changes to the format, the episodes, my guests, and I worried if the podcast was still what you guys needed and wanted.

Initially, I did a lot of overthinking - but then I knew I just needed to ask YOU.

So over the past few weeks, I invited you to share your thoughts about the podcast: what you love, what you'd like more of, and whether you thought anything should change.

Your responses made me laugh, made me cry, and reminded me why I pressed record on that very first episode four years ago.

In this special solo episode, I'm sharing what you told me, the feedback that surprised me the most, and why your words have shaped the next chapter of this podcast.

This isn't about reinventing something that isn't broken. It's about listening, reflecting, and making sure the next person navigating menopause after cancer can find the support they need.

In this episode, we talk about:

Why I decided to ask for your honest feedback after four years.The survey responses that genuinely surprised me.The conversations you want us to have more of.Why expert interviews and survivor stories aren't going anywhere.The importance of asking the questions that others often avoid.What your feedback taught me about this community.A hint about an exciting announcement coming next week…
