Today on Feminine Roadmap guests Taylor Sittler and Valerie Williamson share how to experience vitality and hope in your menopause journey. Taylor is a physician entrepreneur who developed a telemedicine platform for women in perimenopause and menopause. He wants women to know that just because the transition to menopause is “natural” doesn’t mean you have to grin and bear it. Drawing from his mother’s menopause journey and his medical background, Taylor recognized a gap in the medical field when it came to providing comprehensive care for women experiencing perimenopause and menopause. The result of this is thecusp.com, a unique and innovative telemedicine platform that is comprised of the best board certified medical practitioners who are menopause experts. The beauty of this platform is that it empowers you to take control of your menopause journey and have access to a board of experts who work together to provide a personalized protocol for you. The Cusp also provides materials to help you better understand what you’re going through enabling you to overcome any stigma, fear, or confusion. Joining the conversation is Valerie Williamson, a member of the Cusp management team as well as a client. Valerie shares how the Cusp has been a pivotal part of her menopause journey, giving her back her vitality. If you or a friend are in need of a one stop menopause platform where an expert will listen to your needs, see you as an individual and provide solutions that will work for you- look no further. Grab a cuppa something wonderful, your best friend and learn all about how the Cusp can change the way you live your second half! http://www.feminineroadmap.com/episode188/
