Laura Posada has reached a point in life where she is more interested in talking about what women actually experience than pretending certain subjects don’t exist. Menopause, muscle loss, intimacy, nutrition and the changes that arrive in midlife are all part of the conversation. And at 54, she is also putting much of that advice into practice herself, lifting weights three times a week and making strength a priority.
It is a very different chapter for the San Juan-born attorney, author, coach and entrepreneur, but the instinct behind it is familiar. Throughout her career, Posada has often taken something deeply personal and found a way to make it useful to someone else.
Her focus on menopause began with her own experience. Posada started noticing changes at 46 and has spoken openly about how little she understood about what was happening. What followed was an education of her own and, eventually, a new professional direction. In 2025, she became certified as a menopause coaching specialist through Girls Gone Strong, adding specialized training to years of work as a coach.
By then, she was already an entrepreneur in the space. She founded Laura Posada Supplements in 2022, with Knockout Menopause, an AM-and-PM line made without synthetic hormones, at the center of the business. The company has since grown into a broader collection of wellness products, while Posada's digital community has reached nearly 1.3 million followers across Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. As ¡HOLA! reported in 2025, she describes perimenopause and menopause not as an ending, but as un renacer.
That conversation expanded in 2025 when she took the stage at Days to Shine in Santo Domingo alongside sexuality educator Josie Edmée. Their session, “Menopause and sex: your period stops, but not the pleasure,” tackled another part of midlife that is often discussed quietly, if at all: intimacy. For Posada, it was a natural extension of a platform increasingly centered on giving women practical information about a stage of life many enter feeling surprisingly unprepared for.
Her desire to help others, however, began long before menopause became her focus. After her son Jorge Luis was born with craniosynostosis in 1999 and underwent eight surgeries, Laura and her husband, former New York Yankees catcher Jorge Posada, created the Jorge Posada Foundation to support families facing the same diagnosis. Years later, after Hurricane María devastated Puerto Rico, they again mobilized to help the island that has remained central to their family’s identity.
Today, Posada’s work brings those different parts of her life together: the attorney who learned to advocate, the mother who turned a frightening experience into philanthropy, and the entrepreneur who saw how many women had questions about midlife and decided to build something around the answers.
For Posada, getting older has not meant becoming quieter. If anything, she has found more to say, and more women ready to listen.
