About the Author makingsenseofmenopause.com Susan Willson, CNM is a Yale-educated Certified Nurse Midwife. She has always seen the body as intelligent and capable, and has spent her career helping to support and empower women to trust their bodies and work with its natural intelligence. Her original degrees were in Psychology and English, from Emory University. Once she understood how much of our life trajectory is influenced in the womb and at birth, she began her study of midwifery and returned to Emory for a nursing degree, followed by a master's degree at Yale University. From the beginning, Susan has been interested in other cultures and what their birth traditions tell us about how they view being human. She has lived and worked among the Navajo, in Africa, and with Alaska natives, Mexican and Pacific Rim cultures. She is always looking across a broad spectrum for what connects us as human beings, as well as the differences in each culture that add spice to the basic recipe. Her last two decades have been spent working with women in the menopausal transition. Working deeply with women during this time of life, strongly reinforced her view that menopause is both positive and purposeful, and is forcefully shaped by our early experiences, histories and how we experience our female identity. She lives in New York's Hudson Valley.
