Local Author, Sally Bartlett, Turns Menopausal Turmoil into Humor with Nonfiction Journal to Offer Encouragement and Hope to Women
LAGUNA HILLS, Calif. - Californer -- Sally Bartlett, author of "Dammit ... It IS Menopause! Meditations for Women to Achieve Clarity and Confidence Beyond Their Wildest Dreams, Volume 1," ranked No. 1 New Release in American Diabetes Association Nutrition by Amazon. The book was released with volume two on Wednesday, Dec. 10, 2020.
"Dammit ... It IS Menopause!" is a collection of journal entries written over a 15-year period while Bartlett experienced menopause symptoms including hot flashes, memory problems, weight gain, depression, anxiety and insomnia. Bartlett describes her book as an intimate and candid look behind the scenes of what many women experience during this phase of their life. It's intended to offer hope and encouragement to women suffering with similar symptoms.
"What started as a way to survive my negative self-talk and the way I felt about my changing body became a collection of inspirational daily meditations. During perimenopause, I felt terribly alone and feared I was losing my mind. Through a number of self-loving practices — physical, intellectual, emotional and spiritual — I learned to embrace the transition and thrive. I overcame disordered and emotional eating, quit dieting and made peace with my weight and food. I share my poignant, yet humorous, writings with other women so they too can love their body and their life," said Bartlett.

Bartlett's fan base refers to her as the dean of varsity menopause, a title she gave herself after attending her son's college orientation. It was there that the dean of students explained that a dean's job was to provide support for a successful navigation during a season of life. This concept resonated with Bartlett as she offers guidance to women during perimenopause and beyond.
Bartlett further commented, "Why varsity? Varsity is a term coined by one of my close friends when I wanted her recognition for completing some small task like cleaning out the vegetable bin in my refrigerator. She played along and proclaimed, 'that's Varsity.' It just stuck. What a wonderful, universal way to celebrate each other!"
