Menopause is seen as a time to dread, filled with uncomfortable sensations and loss…and yet this can be the most empowered time of a woman’s life.
Do you feel like your body is changing?
Your skin, your libido, your weight, are changing in ways you just don’t like?
Do you feel cranky at times for no reason?
You might be feeling like your body, your mind and even your life are falling apart.
It can feel disorienting and scary. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
It is true, a lot about you is changing. The change is normal, the suffering isn’t.
Just like when a young woman moves into puberty, it can be uncomfortable and disorienting. But with the proper support the imbalances can be corrected.
You, too are going through a powerful transition that has been lost in our culture.
No one is talking about this, so you are left to suffer, despair and search for answers on your own. But there are options!
Menopause is not just the cessation of your childbearing years, it is the beginning of a whole new role. It is the beginning of your role as a Wise Woman!
The changes in your hormones are actually designed to support this amazing new phase of life…if you know how to navigate this new territory.
You can emerge from this transition clearer, more powerful and more on purpose than ever before.
Take the first step to claim your Wise Woman.

My Story
I was unceremoniously thrown into perimenopausal syndrome at 47 when I followed the advice of one of my healthcare providers to do a drastic detox.
I was shocked at the delta between what I had learned in medical school and what I was experiencing. I went on a quest to learn more about what was happening in my body, only to discover the vacuum of understanding in medicine and in our culture about this phase of life.
When I heard a respected medical doctor espouse how–from a biological perspective–women are “done” post childbearing years, I knew something had to change…because nothing can be further from the truth.
Post menopause can be the best years of a woman’s life. You don’t have to suffer, you can do it differently. You can emerge from this transition clearer, more powerful and more on purpose than ever before. You can do this…we can do this better together.
