You’re Not Losing Your Mind: A Support Circle for Women
The Emotional & Cognitive Side of Perimenopause
Have you ever found yourself mid-sentence, reaching for a word you’ve used a thousand times — and it’s just... gone? Or felt a wave of anxiety so out of nowhere that you wondered if something was seriously wrong?
You’re not losing your mind. You may be in perimenopause.
It’s time to talk together about the emotional and cognitive changes of perimenopause. Not the hot flashes. The stuff that messes with your sense of self.
During this expert guided conversation, we’ll talk about:
Brain fog, anxiety, mood swings — and why they’re happening
The identity shift nobody prepares you for
The misconceptions that make this harder than it needs to be
How to stay grounded — and who you’re becoming
Share your own story
Make connections
Leave feeling seen and validated.
A recent testimonial:
“It is rare to find people who can offer you validation, solidarity and guidance, but Renée is one of those people. I find that being post menopausal at 44 means I am needing clarity and support in ways I couldn’t image before. Renée is kind, present and knowledgeable. Plus she knows how to tailor things to your specific life in ways that will feel fun and honoring. Highly recommend putting your trust, time and finances towards investing in yourself and her services.”

Coming in this Fall:
Seeing Her: a guided conversation event for adult women and their mothers
Seeing Her is a chance to sit down together and talk about the things everyday life rarely makes room for: menopause and the changes it brings, the paths your lives have taken, and the parts of each other you may have never fully asked about. Through a structured but unhurried set of questions, you'll move from light warm-up moments into deeper territory — joy, fear, regret, forgiveness, and legacy — always at your own pace, with no pressure to answer everything. Two shared activities anchor your time together: a Timeline Exchange, where mothers map the major moments of their lives and daughters ask questions as it unfolds, and a Hand Ritual, a quiet moment of touch and reflection between mother and daughter. The goal isn't a perfect conversation — it's the chance to see the woman in front of you, not just the role she's played in your life.
