S27E13: Why Black Women Need to Talk about Perimenopause with Dr. Janet Williams
Episode 13
Friday, 26 September, 2025
Hey lady! The weather’s cooling down but for some of us that doesn’t necessarily mean that your body is lowering the temperature. Why? Because perimenopause is a thing and it’s time we talk about it and why it’s impacting Black women more and earlier than other women.Friend of the podcast and all-around boss babe, Dr. Janet Williams, a Los Angeles-based OB/GYN and author of Why Don’t I Like Sex Anymore? The Grown Woman’s Guide to Getting Your Groove Back and Claiming Your Truth joins Dr. Dom and Terri to get real about a natural station in life for every cis-gendered woman. You may remember the many jewels she dropped in season 25, episode 5 urging women to take more ownership in their intimate pleasure. She’s now back to arm Black women with the information they need during one of the most significant changes in life. Once considered the marker of old age it is now a signifier of the strength and beauty that exists in aging. But, before you rise in your feminine power there are some things to know to make the journey smoother…and less sweaty.Dr. Janet not only provides a clear definition of what menopause, perimenopause and post-menopause are but also break down what is happening in the body and provide specific markers you can use as a guide to help you inform yourself about where you are on the journey. Dr. Janet uses her expertise to offer guidance on treatments like hormone replacement therapy, demystifies the sometimes-inexplicable changes happening in the body, and clears up myths and confusion around proper supplementation to ease some of the uncomfortable symptoms that occur during each phase.Lady, you already know where to go to get your level-up journal (Patreon), but there’s more on Patreon as well.
