210 - Selene Yeager Lifts Heavy Sh*t & Other Badassery

Selene Yeager is the host of the Hit Play Not Pause podcast which in my opinion, qualifies her for this title: Menopause Expert. Selene is also the content manager for Feisty Menopause, and a top-selling professional health and fitness writer who lives what she writes as an NASM certified personal trainer, USA Cycling licensed coach, Pn1 certified nutrition coach, pro licensed off road racer, and former All-American Ironman triathlete. Most recently she is the co-author of ROAR and Next Level with Dr. Stacy Sims. 

All that aside, I've known Selene for almost 20 years back in the days when she was the voice for all things women at Bicycling Magazine. When I launched Skirt Sports in 2005, she immediately "got it," requested one of our cycling skirts and proudly rocked it (and reviewed it) as a way for women to carry their femininity on and off the trails.

I love that she's never stopped pushing for women to own their health & fitness journeys in whatever ways they need - at every stage of life. Today we talk all things menopause. I'm so grateful that Selene is an open book as she shares many nuggets of wisdom and advice in her own journey and through her conversations with other meno experts.
