Description

Dr. Mindy Pelz, noted women's health advocate and the bestselling author of Fast Like a Girl and Eat Like a Girl, redefines menopause as a powerful biological upgrade--offering science-backed strategies to help women thrive, reclaim their health, and step into their most vibrant, authentic selves.

What if menopause isn't something to fear--but a biological and spiritual turning point that sets you up for your most vibrant, empowered years?

In Age Like a Girl, bestselling author and women's health expert Dr. Mindy Pelz reclaims the menopause conversation. With insight from neuroscience, evolutionary biology, and decades of clinical experience, she reframes menopause as a natural brain remodel--a purposeful, biological transformation that frees women from people-pleasing and performance, and reconnects them to their true voice.

Through a mix of science, storytelling, and practical lifestyle tools, Dr. Pelz shows women how to work with their changing neurochemistry to regain clarity, calm, confidence, and purpose. This is not a book about shrinking symptoms or silencing discomfort. It's about understanding what's really happening in your body--and stepping into the next phase of life with power and pride.

You'll learn:

The brain science behind menopause and why so many women experience mood shifts, brain fog, and emotional turbulence
How to interpret the neurochemical shifts as a call to realignment--not as dysfunction
What anthropology reveals about post-menopausal women as leaders, wisdom holders, and central figures in thriving communities
Tools to support your changing body, including fasting, movement, sleep, and nutrition strategies

Whether you're pre-, peri-, or post-menopausal, Age Like a Girl offers a deeply validating, actionable, and hopeful message: this is not the beginning of the end. This is your chance to rise.
