Beyond Motherhood Summit Speaker Highlight - Dr. Susan Mitchell
About this episode
In this episode of The Mostly Under Control Podcast, host Melanie O'Reilly-Rogers welcomes Dr. Susan Mitchell, a board-certified gynecologist from Maya Women's Health in Downers Grove. As a speaker at the upcoming Beyond Motherhood Summit, Dr. Mitchell previews her session on perimenopause, diving into myths, truths, and actionable advice for navigating this life phase.
Join Melanie and Dr. Mitchell as they discuss self-care, the importance of living your best and fullest life, and the transformative power of discovering passions outside of motherhood. With humor, honesty, and personal stories, this episode is a reminder that normal doesn’t mean untreatable and that taking care of yourself is essential—not selfish.
Dr. Mitchell’s session, "Living Your Best Life Through Perimenopause," will be on Sunday, January 19th, at 3:15 PM, closing out the summit. Tickets for the Beyond Motherhood Summit are still available—check the podcast description for the link.
