Ep 8 - Perimenopause & Power: Aging Well as Black Women

In this empowering episode of the Black Girls Can Talk Podcast, host Dr. DaJaneil McCree sits down with health advocate and community leader Mable Taplin to dive deep into a topic rarely discussed but deeply needed—perimenopause and aging in Black women. From hormonal shifts to reproductive health, this conversation unpacks how to navigate perimenopause with power, purpose, and grace.

Whether you’re a Black woman approaching perimenopause, currently experiencing symptoms, or simply want to prepare for this phase of life, this episode provides insight, support, and encouragement. We talk about faith, wellness, mental health, and self-care—all through the lens of Black women’s empowerment. This conversation is especially for Black women in healthcare, Black women in business, Black women in church leadership, and Black women facing disadvantages in the healthcare system.

Learn how to embrace aging, advocate for your reproductive health, and maintain your voice and identity during life transitions. This is a must-listen for every Black female professional, grad student, entrepreneur, and faith-driven woman who wants to age well and live fully.
