Memorable Quotes:
"And I just want to tell everybody, it's not all in your mind. I mean, it is in your mind, but there's other things that are like playing a factor that we can look at and help. Because your hormones are what control and balance everything. It tells everything else to work good. So why ignore it?" – Shelly Moyers
"Moving into that next part of life, 53 and feeling fine. And that allows me the space to talk about it more comfortably with other women. And you know, when I see them when they're discouraged, I'm like, girl, there is help. Like, let me hug you through this. You got this. And there is a solution. So just don't." – Shelly Moyers
