When Chana and I spoke for this recording, it was right at the beginning of the current conflict in Israel and Chana lives right in the heart of Jerusalem. This speaks volumes for the kind of person she is – giving, calm, centred and willing to share her insights so that others may benefit.
In this episode we talk about her illustrious career in Hollywood, the extreme trauma and injury she experienced which left her in great physical pain, her 10 year Perimenopause which included horrendous brain fog, “like thinking through molasses”, and the difference between feeling depressed and suffering from depression, which many of us understand first hand.
Chana’s most recently published book, ‘Very Well’ is a novel about Menopause. And it makes for a fascinating read. She weaves the way she healed her debilitating pain into the stories of the characters so that the reader can understand how to move through life with less suffering and more joy. She has another book on the way – so get yourself on the list!
