Rachel Moorewww.podopshost.com
UnpauseIt is now MENOPAUSEIT, a podcast about menopausal women doing the nerd's work.  MenopauseIt highlights menopausal women (at any stage of menopause, be it pre-, post-, or actual) working in the gaming and/or science fiction entertainment industries. Whether in front of or behind the camera, these women make nerdy things we all love, and all while navigating what can accurately be described as a seismic shift in their biology.  If you're a menopausal woman, a gaming fan, a sci-fan fan, or just a general nerd, this podcast is for you.
