What a week...


It’s been a hectic week… so not a typical blog this week. But I thought I’d tell you what I’m up to. Not only have I been preparing for my first Zoom online book reading and interview, to be held live on Saturday morning, but we also sold a property this week – the condo in Florida we bought 10 years ago. Lots of wonderful memories there, and I will miss it. So, it’s been a week of emotions and nerves…

But let me tell you about our exciting event. My pharmacist colleague and blogger, Karen McCurdy-Thompson, will interview me live on Zoom about my book, Can I Speak to the Hormone Lady? Managing Menopause and Hormone Imbalances. The event is sponsored and organized by the Bookmark bookstores in Charlottetown and Halifax, and they also sell my book. A recording of the event will be available afterward.

The interview, menopause discussion, and reading of short excerpts of the book will begin at 11am on Saturday, November 7th, 2020. If you haven’t attended a Zoom event before, it’s simple to join in. Just email Charlottetown@bookmarkreads.ca and ask for a link then, just before 11 on Saturday, tomorrow, click the link they sent you on any computer, tablet or smart phone. If you're interested in learning about menopause and hormones that are out of control, join us…

Note that, if you aren’t able to attend on Saturday morning, a recording of the event will be available afterward. I will be emailing the link to the recording out to my readers but you can also contact the store email above or email me at Jeannie.beaudin@gmail.com to get the replay link. This is very exciting, and new for all of us... always a learning experience. I guess everyone is trying out new things that will help keep people safe during the pandemic.

Here is the press release for the event:

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Relief from hormone symptoms for women of all ages: Discussion of book by NB pharmacist and author

November 7, 2020; Cap-Pele, NB, Canada—New Brunswick author, Jeannie Collins Beaudin, will be discussing her book: Can I Speak to the Hormone Lady? Managing Menopause and Hormone Imbalances with pharmacist, Karen McCurdy-Thompson, live by Zoom at 11am, November 7, 2020. The event is sponsored by the Bookmark stores, located in Charlottetown and Halifax.

Can I Speak to the Hormone Lady? is an easy read that gives women of all ages the knowledge they need to understand and take control of hormone-related symptoms. It is based on scientific studies, the author’s 40 years of experience as a pharmacist, and her 10 years as a specialty hormone consultant.

Although the book is primarily aimed at women in their 40s to mid-50s, hormone imbalances that can occur throughout a woman’s life are discussed. Readers will learn what their hormone-related symptoms tell them and how they can control these symptoms using lifestyle and diet changes, herbal medicines, low-dose hormones, and standard hormone therapies. These symptoms, treatments to rebalance hormones, and the system the author used to conduct hormone assessments for over 10 years are explained in clear, easy-to-understand language.

The book also describes what information women should share with their doctor and how to best communicate what they need. Jeannie will be reading short excerpts from her book and answering questions posed by Karen and listeners during the live Zoom event.

To join the Zoom call, contact the Bookmark Charlottetown store by email: charlottetown@bookmarkreads.ca or call 902-566-4888 for a link to the call. At 11am, listeners simply need to click the link on their computer, tablet or smart phone to watch, listen and ask questions. Note that a recording will be available afterward, if you are unable to attend the live event.

About the Author—Jeannie Collins Beaudin is a retired, award-winning pharmacist and former owner of a compounding specialty pharmacy. Her pharmacy practice included hormone consultations by appointment and was featured multiple times in Canadian pharmacy journals. She has studied natural medicines as well as standard and bioidentical (natural) hormones.
