About this listen

Menopause and perimenopause are no laughing matter - but that doesn't stop Amanda Thebe from approaching them with a sense of humor. In this hilarious and personal account, the fitness trainer shares how she lost weight, dealt with her depression, improved her sleep, and overhauled her diet to survive - and thrive - during menopause. Now, you can, too!

Includes a training guide with strength workouts for women over 40.

At a time when menopause has become an urgent, necessary topic of public discussion, with the likes of Michelle Obama revealing their struggles for the first time on the internet, personal trainer Amanda Thebe shares the road map she uses to thrive during perimenopause and menopause in Menopocalypse.

With funny, bold, and bighearted writing that will be familiar to fans of Glennon Doyle, Amanda Thebe shares her menopause journey and what she learned along the way. Listeners will come away from the audiobook with:

  • A better understanding of your own hormones and how they factor in menopause and your overall health;
  • Confidence to speak your truth about your menopause symptoms to your doctor, other health professionals, your family, and friends;
  • Advice for achieving optimal health during perimenopause and menopause by changing your diet, fitness routine, and more lifestyle factors.

Amanda Thebe was working as a personal trainer and fitness coach when, at age 43, she began to experience debilitating exhaustion, dizziness, and depression. At the time, Thebe didn’t know it was all related to her hormones. The busy mother of two, who was used to climbing mountains and traveling the world, only knew she struggled to get out of bed.

After several failed doctor’s appointments, Thebe saw her gynecologist, who finally named the source of her struggles: perimenopause, the period of five to 10 years before menopause, when a woman’s fluctuating estrogen levels put her at risk of depression, anxiety, headaches, and more ailments related to female hormone health.

Empowered by information, Thebe began her journey back to her former self, overhauling her approach to diet and exercise. In Menopocalypse, she explains how to deal with migraines, hot flashes, weight gain, exhaustion, poor sleep, vaginal dryness, and mood swings - offering tips that have worked for her and others.

She shares information about hormone therapy. She even shares her own strength-training routine, complete with a suggested workout schedule, easy-to-follow instructions, and pictures of herself doing the exercises, so you can feel empowered, fit, and ready to tackle the day.

Menopause isn’t fun, sexy, or cool, and a woman might spend one-third of her life in it - but that doesn’t mean women should suffer in silence without support. Let the outspoken and honest Amanda Thebe be your guide to surviving - and thriving - during menopocalypse.

Critic reviews

“Amanda Thebe does a marvelous job of evidence-based storytelling and self-help counseling, in words and pictures, with humor and confidence. I am so excited that women of all ages will now have Menopocalypse to guide them through their lifetime journeys within their bodies!” (Susan M. Kleiner, PhD, RD, author of The New Power Eating)

“Amanda Thebe is the guide every woman deserves to have at her side as she moves into the mysterious post-reproductive years. Menopocalypse equips us with the strategies our doctors and friends might not share - important pieces of information that reassure us we can survive, we will survive, and we might even find our post-menopocalyptic selves stronger and more capable than ever before.” (Georgie Fear, RD, CSSD, author of Give Yourself MORE)

“A must-have for any woman over 40. Amanda Thebe breaks down menopause in an easy-to-understand way, and delivers science-based diet and lifestyle recommendations with levity and clarity. I’m buying a copy for all of my friends.” (Abby Langer, RD, author of Good Food, Bad Diet)

Informative & Simple to understand

Loved this book as I am in perimenopause and a long time fit professional myself. I thought it was easy to comprehend, not too sciency but enough science to understand what a woman in menopause needs to know. It was all very relatable.

I didnt love the computer generated voice over. But was able to get through it nonetheless.
