Naomi Watts announces new book about menopause, Dare I Say It, as she declares 'women have suffered in silence for too long'

As an ardent admirer of Naomi Watts, the news of her new book, Dare I Say It: Everything I Wish I’d Known About Menopause, has filled me with immense excitement and gratitude! Her courage to address such a critical yet often overlooked topic is truly commendable.

On Tuesday, Naomi Watts shared news on social platforms regarding her upcoming book, entitled “Dare I Say It: Everything I Wished I’d Known About Menopause.” This publication will focus on the menopausal experience.

As a lifestyle enthusiast myself, I recently found myself among the esteemed crowd at the Sag Harbor Benefit Auction. In the spirit of sharing knowledge and inspiration, I took to my Instagram platform, where I have almost two million fellow book lovers, to unveil an intriguing cover that has captured my attention.

As reported by People, this literary work is expected to feature the celebrity’s own experiences, as well as discussions with friends and specialists.

The experienced actress shared her thoughts with the media, saying, “For far too long, women have endured silence and embarrassment regarding the physical transformations of menopause. They’ve faced limited resources for guidance, assistance, and even meaningful dialogue.”

As a lifestyle expert, I express my sincere hope that this book serves as a companion to women, fostering a sense of camaraderie during their journey, providing reassurance, emotional support, and even sparking a touch of anticipation about the natural transitions life presents.

“Today, I’m overjoyed to reveal what I’ve been diligently crafting for the past 14 months on Instagram!”

‘DARE I SAY IT will be out in January 2025. You can preorder a copy at the link in my bio.’

As a devoted admirer, I’d put it this way: “Ever since I was 36 and learned I was on the brink of menopause, my life has been flipped upside down – and here’s the story!” This revelation, shared with me by the mother of two amazing teens, Sasha, 17, and Kai, 15, who I once shared a life with Liev Schreiber, sets the stage for an unforgettable journey.”

At the point when I was all set to embark on creating a family, it felt like the end of the world. Without a doubt, both my fertility and career prospects seemed to be in jeopardy.

In the vulnerable message to her fans, she went on to share that she lacked helpful resources.

“Throughout my battle with feelings of embarrassment and concealment, I yearned for a candid discussion. Something like a guidebook I could discreetly leaf through. Unfortunately, there were no such resources readily available. Not even knowledgeable medical professionals,” she shared.

Relaying her experience to her audience, she added, ‘I stayed quiet for as long as I could. 

Given that about half the population experiences menopause and both my grandmothers are thriving, I felt compelled to delve deeper into enhancing my health and providing support for other women. We should not have to face this journey alone; we deserve better!

In summary, she hoped that sharing her experiences with medical professionals and experts, as well as her conversations with friends, would provide you with a sense of empowerment and help you feel less isolated, since you’ll have the opportunity to learn from her story.

‘I can’t wait to share this with you all.’

In reference to her brand, Stripes, which promotes aging gracefully, she concluded: ‘Let’s carry ourselves with pride.’

‘We are older, we are wiser, and we are NOT DONE!! We’ve earned our STRIPES.’

In her press release for her upcoming book, Naomi expressed that she aims for the reading experience to feel as if you’re sharing a casual, heart-to-heart conversation over coffee with a close friend.

I’m confident that it will prove useful for those navigating this stage of life, transforming it into a period of freedom instead of just enduring hardships.

She affirmed, ‘Menopause is a part of a woman’s midlife, but midlife is about far more than menopause.

I’m really looking forward to sharing with you all the ups and downs, as well as everything in between, related to this particular life phase. I hope it will provide you with valuable, hands-on advice and reassurance for facing these changes confidently.
