Tamsen leverages her decades of journalism experience to provide actionable tools from dozens of world-renowned experts on topics ranging from wellness to fashion. She is the creator and executive producer of the groundbreaking PBS documentary, The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause, which has galvanized a global movement. It has been viewed by over 1 million women in 350+ cities and 42 countries, and led to thousands of screenings around the world. Her latest book, How to Menopause: Take Charge of Your Health, Reclaim Your Life, and Feel Even Better than Before (Hachette), will be available in March of 2025. How To Menopause answers all the questions you’ve been too nervous to ask. With this book, Tamsen has created a safe place to ask questions, gain support, and defeat the shame and stigma around menopause and midlife.

Tamsen’s candor and relatability have taken her from the boardroom to the stage at SXSW to Capital Hill, where she advocates for policies that eliminate the stigma of menopause and foster an environment where women feel empowered to embrace their midlife transition, finding joy, confidence, and fulfillment through every life stage. She also regularly appears in the media, including Oprah Daily, The Today Show, The New York Times, and The Harvard Business Review.  

Tamsen holds a certificate in holistic health coaching from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, serves on the national boards of Let’s Talk Menopause and Best Buddies International, and is a strong voice in the fight against breast cancer, having lost her mother to the disease in 1990.  

Tamsen currently lives in New York City and Santa Monica with her husband Ira Bernstein.
