Summary: Mel B, also known as Scary Spice, is sharing how her health habits have changed now that she is in her 50s.

Now, she focuses on washing her face, eating what her body needs, and lifting weights to keep her bones strong and stop muscle loss.

She is also dealing with menopause symptoms like night sweats, brain fog, and anxiety. Mel B says she felt alone at first, but then learned all the other Spice Girls are going through it too! Because of these changes, she says she has traded her famous "girl power" for "woman power."
