Summary

Join the Uplift Community App TODAY! If you are in your 40s or 50s and notice your body changing faster than you expected, you are not imagining it. Most women never receive the information they need until something feels off. That is why I wanted this conversation so much. Zora Benhamou is a gerontologist with a master’s degree from USC who studies aging from every angle.
