Tamsen Fadal is an Emmy award-winning journalist, documentary filmmaker, and menopause advocate. Tamsen is the creator, producer and executive producer of the PBS documentary The M Factor, Shredding the Silence on Menopause which is the first documentary of its kind confronting the neglected menopause crisis, challenging societal and medical shortcomings, and advocating for a revolutionary approach to women’s health. From the boardroom to the stage at SXSW to Capitol Hill, she advocates for policies that eliminate the stigma of menopause and foster a work environment where women feel comfortable discussing and managing their midlife health journey.

After more than three decades as a television news anchor, Tamsen made the bold decision to pivot her career towards women’s health advocacy. She’s the best friend helping guide women through midlife and beyond, acting as a one-stop resource for everything they need to know to live their best lives. Equally passionate about health, Tamsen holds a certificate in holistic health coaching from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN), serves on the national board of Let’s Talk Menopause and is a strong voice in the fight against breast cancer after losing her mother to the disease in 1990.

Her regular appearances in media outlets include Oprah Daily, The Today Show, The New York Times, and The Harvard Business Review.
Tamsen lives in New York City and Santa Monica with her husband, Ira Bernstein.
