Surviving to Thriving | Cynthia Thurlow | TEDxTrinityBellwoodsWomen

I found this video accidentally and have watched it several times in addition to another Ted talk you did. I also subscribed to your you tube channel. I am 54 and post menopause. I have struggled with so many issues since about age 50. If only I had this information a few years ago! Thank you!

Thanks for this! Finally, and desperately I found a functional medicine clinic December 2021. At 61, I’ve been post menopausal for 12 years, and no Dr ever discussed hormonal supplement with me. Along with many other health aspects, we are addressing my hormonal balance and it is life changing! In only 3 months of eating different, supplements and embracing my health as my priority, I have hope and I feel like my future is bright! I’ve lost 26 pounds so far, and another 80 to go, and I will get there!

Amen! Most people charge to help others with information like this.

I just stumbled upon this video. I just turned 60 this week. I am vegan. I struggle with depression, anxiety, insomnia, crying everyday and alcohol. I'm going to watch all of your videos on your channel after this...hoping this ends.

Such an important message for women of all ages.

You are an awesome, beautiful, intelligent woman. Thank you so much for the valuable information. Please continue to do more TED Talks ! We need more women like you !

Thanks for speaking on this very important issue. As you point out, women live to 84 now, and we need to understand how to navigate these peri menopausal years more effectively with current and accurate information. For me the anxiety is more of an issue than the other more classic symptoms. I am 48 and feel like I hit menopause over night without a lot of preparation from the women in my family who are older or from society in general. Typically "middle aged women" are not seen as vibrant, valuable, or integral in the North American culture unfortunately. I appreciate your generosity in posting this. Please keep this conversation going with these intelligent examples of professionally trained women.

Love her. She knows what is saying. Best Doctor

As my hormones are out of control. Im glad to have found this video.

This school year in England, after a huge campaign, Menopause is is being taught as part of the National Curriculum, how I wish that had happened in my day, and more companies are investing in staff training to understand how this can effect women. I’m still finding out information for myself and struggling. Hopefully young women will be prepared for this time in their lives.

Wow! I am in peri-menopause. I was wondering why I had suddenly started eating like a mad woman. Thank you for this Ted X talk. It is an answer to prayer.

Yes yes yes! OMAD changed my life! 47 year old right here! 👋

OMG, thank you so much.

Thank you for your message and sharing all the ways we can heal our bodies naturally!

Great info. I am definitely passing it on. Wish I had this 15 years ago.

Such an important message! Let's spread the word about healthy hormones and aging! Thank you Cynthia!
