Navigating Midlife with Ease: Women’s Health Day

Are you entering into midlife? a women over the age of 45? Are you facing changes in your career? Your body? Your mood? Your relationships? Your identity and interests? And/or day to day life?

As we age, we enter into a new phase or season of our life – the Autumn of Life, some call it. Many women indicate there is a lack of visibility, information or options for women as we become older. Our body, lives and focus may be changing. What does it mean physically? What is perimenopause? How do I want to work or live my life after children are out of the house, or after retirement?  How do we explore and integrate these many changes into our lives? We offer a space and time to explore these topics with different professionals. Come join us for exchange and support around these themes. Here are the workshop co-leaders.
