Harness the power of your perimenopause transformation.
What if perimenopause isn’t a crisis to fix, but a powerful awakening to embrace?
We’ve been sold a story that says women should fight aging at every turn: erase the wrinkles, control the weight, manage the symptoms, stay youthful. And now, an entire industry is increasingly monetizing our fear of getting older.
Pause Power invites you to question that story and get curious about what’s actually happening inside your body.
Why does your sleep suddenly change? What’s happening to your brain when estrogen fluctuates? Why can your body composition shift even when your habits haven’t? And why can it feel like everything is changing at once?
Grounded in the science of hormones, brain health, and the biology of aging, and informed by a feminist perspective on bodies, beauty standards, and power, Pause Power brings science and social-emotional learning together to help you understand this transition from the inside out.
Konika Ray Wong, M.Ed co-created this workshop with Dr. Kim Garfinkel, MD, MPH, DABOM, MSCP, a board-certified OB/GYN and Menopause Society Certified Menopause provider who specializes in midlife medicine and is board certified in obesity medicine. The content was shaped by questions submitted by more than 200 mothers at a Bay Area high school when we first developed and presented this session together.
We’ll unpack the fascinating biology of perimenopause, separate fact from fear, and examine how culture and beauty standards shape the way we experience our changing bodies. You’ll leave with a deeper understanding of what’s happening, practical tools for navigating the transition, and the confidence to make informed choices about your health and wellbeing.
You’ll also create a customized herbal tea blend to take home and enjoy light snacks and hot tea as we pause, connect, and reflect together.
Question the story.
Understand the science.
Reclaim your power.
Investment: $85 (1.5 hours)
