(Isstories Editorial):- Atlanta, Georgia Oct 14, 2025 (Issuewire.com) – Hot flashes, brain fog, mood swings–oh my! Just in time for World Menopause Day, Jesari Beale Publishing is thrilled to announce the release of Kitty Mae Reed’s highly anticipated new book, The Pause: An Honest (and Hilarious) Guide to Menopause, Madness & Midlife Mayhem.
Set for release on Saturday, October 18, 2025, The Pause cuts through the confusion and silence surrounding the menopausal transition with a fresh, laugh-out-loud perspective. Author Kitty Mae Reed uses her personal experiences and extensive research to offer a candid, comforting, and incredibly funny look at a life stage that millions of women experience–but few talk about with such raw honesty.
“Menopause is a natural transition, but sometimes it feels like a cosmic joke,” says Reed. “I wrote The Pause because I needed the truth, not the hushed whispers. My goal is to make women feel less alone, more informed, and certainly more able to laugh their way through the hot flashes and hormonal chaos. If you’ve ever wondered what the heck is happening to your body and mind, this book is for you.”
