I Got Men on Pause
Yes, I got Men on Pause—and menopause. But life? Life is on play.
So here’s the deal. I got a story to tell… actually, a LOT of stories. Some true. Some not so true. But all made for you.
Why? Because the M word is real. How real it is for you depends on your pausality—your personal menopause reality.
But let’s face it—it’s taboo AF. And unless you’re actively out here looking for clarity, you probably don’t even realize it’s already relevant to you.
Meet Corrine Ellis.
I created her because my corporate job won’t let me say all the things I need to say—at least not the way I want to say them. So Corrine is my mouthpiece. Saucy, sexy, and just now discovering her pausality. This blog is her journey—and mine.

All that to say… this ain’t your mama’s menopause blog (no shade, Mom). It’s the place where silence ends.

What is IGMOP?
It’s part blog, part storytelling hub, part wellness and education, this is where grown women come to feel seen, laugh hard, learn something, and finally unlearn the shame around aging, and desire.
Read This One First!
This is how it all started—before the sweat, the exes, and the estrogen crimes. If you’re new here, start with this one. Trust me. Context is sexy.

The Pausality Podcast
(coming soon)
Menopause. Reality. Unfiltered.

Hosted by Corrine Ellis, Pausality (our Menopause Reality) blends raw stories, hot flashes, and hilarious truth bombs from the front lines of perimenopause, career chaos, aging relationships, and unexpected sensuality.
It’s part confession booth, part group chat, and fully committed to keeping it real—because sometimes the only way to survive the pause is to play it out loud.
