I have a terrificaly exciting announcement to share with you...
We've Started A Book Club!
Education and empowerment are core values for the heydrheidi community. How better to work towards these goals with you than to lead a monthly bookclub featuring one of my favorite (or next on my own nightstand) health books.
My favorite part of the work I do for Tabu, as one of their medical advisors, is leading Office Hours. If you have joined me there, you have inspired me endlessly. This book club format will feel very familiar to Office Hours alumni. If you have no idea what I am talking about, here's the skinny:
📚Bookclub meetings will be held virtually via zoom once a month.
📚To get into the zoom group you will need to respond to the invitation prior to the event to get a meeting ID and code.
📚All zoom attendees will be anonymous. You will be able to ask questions prior to the meeting about the month's book and you will be able to submit questions during the event via chat. I will moderate the chat and the questions.
📚 I will take featured book suggestions in coming months. If there is a related book you would like to see on the list, drop your "wish list" in the blog comments below.
📚 While there will always be a virtual component to these events so all have the opportunity to join in, please message me if you would like to host a book club event in person. I envision these occurring with in-person participation as our community grows!
📚 All book clubs will be recorded and posted on our YouTube channel for anyone who cannot join during the month's meetup.
Our First Bookclub Read:
The New Menopause written by Dr. Mary Claire Haver.
Why you will want to read this book:
📌 It is a practical and highly digestible guide for entering into and managing the perimenopause and menopausal transition.
📌 Covers research-based hormonal and non-hormonal treatments.
📌 Provides a "toolkit" of management strategies for many common complaints including stress management, mature skin care and acne, body odor and many more.
📌 And one of my favorite sections: How to prepare for an appointment with your medical provider - a great guide to self advocacy.
Put in on your calendar!
Please take note: due to the Palisade Fire in Los Angeles, our 1st bookclub date has changed!
This book club is (re)scheduled for Monday February 24th, 2025 at 5pm (PST).
