139. TikTok and Beyond: Empowering Women Through Menopause with Dr. Dawn Mandeville

This week, Abbe is joined by Dr. Dawn Mandeville, an OB-GYN in Atlanta who grew up inside her father's own OB-GYN practice in New York City, for a conversation about her path to medicine, motherhood, and advocacy. Dr. Mandeville opens up about her own fertility journey, including IUI for her first child, what it's meant to navigate "the Black tax" in medicine, and why hospital bureaucracy and Georgia law can make patient care so much harder than it should be. She also shares how she became an accidental TikTok educator on perimenopause and menopause to empower women to walk into appointments ready to advocate for themselves.
