Embark on a transformative journey through Your Wise Way, a ten week program designed specifically for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, and life beyond. A truly integrative approach combining ancient Āyurvedic medicine and modern perspectives. This program honors the sacred transition into the wisdom years, empowering you with the support and understanding you need to feel good now, not in some distant future.
The sacredness of menopause has been obscured in a culture that denies the cycles of life and gifts of aging. A culture which promotes over-stimulation, urgency, constant striving, and endless consumption. As a result, menopause is often steeped in fear and portrayed as something to loathe. Many find themselves traversing this transition feeling isolated, angry, shamed, or dismissed.
Menopause is an initiation that can carry you to a place of deeper sovereignty and meaning; embodying a sense of inner coherence and belonging. This program uncovers the spiritual truth of menopause while providing you the resources and remedies to embrace your evolution.

Together, we’ll discover what’s possible, both individually and collectively. Menopause and beyond mobilizes us into a new, more expanded consciousness—a spiritual upgrade that aligns us with our true selves.
