This fall, I will be launching the Demystifying Menopause program. Too many women are overwhelmed, frustrated and confused about perimenopause. Women deserve the information and tools to thrive through this transition. This 4 week program will equip women to advocate for themselves and get the care they deserve. Men also need support at this time. I have a heart to help men understand the women in their lives going through this change.
