She serves as a best friend, guiding women through midlife and beyond, acting as a one-stop resource for everything they need to live their best lives. With a passionate and loyal social media audience of over 3 million, Tamsen leverages her decades of journalism experience to provide actionable tools from dozens of world-renowned experts on topics ranging from wellness to fashion, sharing this content daily and centering the stories of women.
Her candor and relatability have established her as a leading voice in the menopause space, with a strong social media following and regular appearances in media outlets including Oprah Daily, “The Today Show,” The New York Times, and The Harvard Business Review.
My passion for supporting women in midlife and during menopause sparked from personal experience and the evident lack of comprehensive resources and open discussions about these phases. I am honored to use voice to illuminate these often-overlooked aspects of women’s lives, striving to bring them the attention and respect they deserve.
From "The M Factor, Shredding the Silence on Menopause," I've learned the incredible strength that comes from vulnerability. This documentary has allowed women to share their menopause experiences, shedding light on the commonalities we share. This project reaffirmed my belief in the power of storytelling to connect and heal, showing that when we talk openly, we can change the narrative around menopause.
Through my career pivoting from a news anchor of 30 years to a women’s health advocate and filmmaker, I’ve learned the importance of adaptability and staying true to one's core values. Embracing change rather than resisting it has allowed me to grow and find new ways to contribute meaningfully. Each pivot is an opportunity to learn and a reminder that our paths need not be linear to be fulfilling.
I think that consistency is key to feeling in balance. Whether it's in producing content, engaging with my audience, or advocating for women's health, showing up consistently and giving my best effort has been fundamental in building trust and achieving long-term goals.
I greatly admire Maya Angelou for her profound wisdom and the eloquent way she used her words to inspire courage and hope. Her life’s work, in advocating for equality and expressing the complexities of human emotion, and she continues to influence and empower generations.
I can't live without my morning routine! It sets the tone for my day, giving me a structured start while being able to have a little quiet time to reflect, plan, and give myself some self-care. This routine keeps me centered and ready to tackle whatever the day holds.
I am excited about the conversation around menopause in the workplace. I have been speaking to corporations and companies and look forward to continuing this conversation into 2025!
