For Halle Berry, Embracing Menopause Changed Everything: ‘No More F*Cks To Give’

This past February, Berry’s company expanded to offer Respin Health, a subscription service that offers health plans, expert guidance, and community support for $100-$150 per month. The subscription includes group discussions led by a menopause coach, which Berry herself sometimes participates in. Some discussions are led by Berry’s own menopause coach, Maria Luque, PhD, who has a strong fitness background—Luque was the fitness program manager during her service in the U.S. Air Force, and focused her PhD research on the role of fitness in maintaining quality of life during menopause.
