'The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause' Film Screening and Discussion

In partnership with women’s wellness advocate Karen Fechter, the Westport Weston Family YMCA, and Alloy Women's Health, The Westport Library presented a special screening of 'The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause,' a groundbreaking documentary film that explores the hidden impact of menopause on women's lives. Menopause has ramifications beyond just an individual woman’s well-being. The far-ranging results of women enduring untreated menopause include billions of dollars in lost wages, upended careers, family disruptions, and emotional chaos. With evidence-based information, this film empowers women to make informed health decisions, aiming to remove the stigma surrounding menopause and aging. This panel included Rachel Hughes, Community Manager at Alloy Health; Barbie Boules, RDN, Founder of Brain Space; Michele Canon, Midlife trainer, nutrition coach, and Founder of the Thrive Transformation Program; Dr. Jaquel Patterson, ND, World Renowned Naturopathic Physician and Founder of Fairfield Family Health; and Dr. Karli Provost Goldstein, Board certified Minimally Invasive GYN Surgeon and Founder of ESSE Care and Wellness. *** Recorded February 26, 2025, published March 3, 2025, via Verso Studios at The Westport Library.    Your support helps us continue creating online content for our community.
