I found out I was in perimenopause at 54 - abruptly, with no warning from my doctors. I was not prepared and did not know where to turn for support. I was one of the millions of women who spent 4-5 years of their lives being misdiagnosed, or not diagnosed at all. As a result, I’ve been driven towards what I now believe is the biggest respin of all - to break the stigma around menopause, sharing my journey and a newfound sense of empowerment. Menopause impacts over half the world’s population, and my goal is to inspire women to embrace this natural transition with the support they deserve - years before your first hot flash.

We're now building what I wish I’d had access to—a resource for women in the midst of menopause, on the cusp of it in perimenopause, or preparing for it. We are focused on making this experience better for women, and that starts with being rooted in community, backed by science, and leveraging technology to scale. We’re redefining what it means to live a healthy life during your second act.
