Your New Jersey (Episode 415)

May 27, 2025

This week on Your New Jersey, we’re celebrating women across the Garden State with powerful stories, vital conversations, and community connection.

First, Host Lisa Marie Falbo heads to NJPAC in Newark for Let’s Talk Women’s Health & Wellness—an inspiring event focused on empowering women through expert-led discussions on medical care, self-care, and the power of community.

Then in Paramus, the Demystify Menopause event creates a safe space for women to break the silence around menopause, learn from experts, and connect with others. Hosted by T.H. Irwin of Women for Women, the event featured speakers like journalist Tamsen Fadal and Dr. Tracy Verrico, Board-Certified OBGYN at BonDoy Gyno.

Back in the studio, Lisa Marie sits down with Danielle Sherman-Lazar of Tenafly—mental health advocate, author of Mothers Are Made, and social media entrepreneur—to talk about the honest, often unspoken realities of motherhood and how embracing those challenges leads to stronger families.
