MENOPAUSE IS STILL SOMETHING THAT ISN’T OPENLY DISCUSSED AND, APART FROM THE UK (GO THE BRITS!), ISN’T SOMETHING THAT’S EVEN HINTED AT IN BIOLOGY OR SEX EDUCATION. SO LINDA CONDRILLO DECIDED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT.
Eleven years is a loooong time in anyone’s books.
It’s how long Linda spent dealing with most of her peri- & post menopause symptoms.
It’s also – purely by coincidence, of course – the same length of time that it took her to research and write her book about menopause: Period. The End.
A journalist by profession, Linda puts a lot of thought and effort into her work, hoping to share knowledge and experiences to help other women – and their families – through this time of life that every woman goes through yet we know so little, and talk even less, about.
Listen to this fascinating conversation with a woman who’s thoroughly lived her life.
Today's Guest: Linda Condrillo
Author of Period. The End.
Personal stories from peri to post menopausal women are shared in the book, as well as sage advice from experts in gynecology, sex therapy, osteoporosis, aromatherapy, professional organizing, nutrition, and more.
Linda has recently relocated to “Lower Slower Delaware” with her retired husband. She is a former Realtor who enjoys travel, photography, aromatherapy, swimming, volunteering, and finding the funny in any given situation.
In addition, Linda shares money saving tips on her Facebook page Frugalinda, where she shares “Everything you always wanted to know about frugality, but were afraid of sounding too cheap to ask.” Her penny-pinching tips have appeared in Woman’s Day Magazine, First for Women, CNN Money.com, SpareFoot.com, Wisebread.com, The Street.com, and GoBanking Rates.com.
She is the proud parent of two adult children and is also the Grandmother of two (best gig ever).
