What if menopause wasn’t something to endure—but a story to embrace, reclaim, and even celebrate?

In this powerful and deeply human conversation, storyteller, performer, and cultural icon Satori Shakoor shares her journey from the funk-filled stages of Parliament Funkadelic to the deeply personal, laugh-out-loud honesty of her one-woman film Confessions of a Menopausal Femme Fatale. With warmth, humor, and fearless truth, Satori invites women to step out of silence and into self-expression during midlife.

Through stories of music, identity, aging, and resilience, this episode dismantles shame, challenges outdated narratives about menopause, and replaces them with curiosity, compassion, and courage. If you’ve ever felt confused, exhausted, unseen, or disconnected from your body during this season, this conversation will help you reconnect with your power, your voice, and your story.
