Wow, Charlie!?!? Are you kidding? That's awful... and some next-level hate. I have NEVER heard of a case of this type of cruelty beyond television (but unrelated to menopause). I truly believe in karma; and that "lady," the perpetrator, will receive hers and then some. She'll remember what she did and feel bad inside, emotionally and thermally.
]]>Today I heard a real-life account of the opposite kind of behavior, reminiscent of the cruellest school-yard trick but perpetrated by a grown woman against her menopausal colleague - she deliberately turned up the heating when her co-worker was around, and laughed at the resulting distress. On top of other bullying and harrassment, this eventually led the older woman to leave her job.
Never was an ally, male or female, more needed!
]]>Hi Sarah,
With so much going on, it's a challenge for me to remember to tune in to podcasts, also! Two things that help me include setting a reminder in my calendar app and adjusting my notifications in my podcast player app. I hope this will help you, too!
