KITCHEN TABLE TALKS: MIDLIFE
✺ LIVE VIRTUAL MEETINGS ✺
Because menopause is hot flashes, hormones, and so much more, this place is for you.

Through live sessions, casual drop-ins, coaching, and on-demand learning, you’ll get trusted information on perimenopause, menopause, symptom relief, and lifestyle strategies. Like the kitchen table where life’s stories are told, you’ll find reflection, connection, and practical tools to help you live your best health in midlife and beyond. You’ll walk away confidently with meaningful goals for the new year.
