Perimenopause is a transformative time, yet it’s often misunderstood and under-discussed. The rapid physical and emotional changes can feel overwhelming, and many women lack the guidance they need to navigate this phase with confidence.
As a Naturopathic Doctor, I’ve seen how this period is often over-medicalized, leaving women with more questions than answers. I have teamed up with Jessie Maher, the owner of Mama Jessie’s Play School & Parenting Support, to collaborate on a workshop that offers a balanced, holistic approach to perimenopause.
We understand that embarking on a journey with a Naturopathic Doctor can feel intimidating—whether due to misconceptions about strict dietary rules, the pressure of supplement regimens, or concerns about costs in an uncertain financial climate.
Our goal is to create a safe space for those who may not have access to Naturopathic care, or who are hesitant about traditional approaches. Together, we aim to make this essential conversation accessible, supportive, and empowering for everyone.

Session 1: Understanding Perimenopause
In the first session, we’ll dive deep into perimenopause: what it is, the hormones involved, and how it affects the body. We’ll explore common symptoms and the physiological changes that come with this phase, providing a solid understanding of what’s happening in the body during this transition.
Session 2: Taking Action with Nutrition and Lifestyle
In the second session, we’ll focus on practical strategies for navigating perimenopause with confidence. We’ll cover evidence-based nutritional and lifestyle approaches that are shown to support individuals through this transition, helping to manage symptoms and promote overall well-being.
All participants will be given quite a beautiful handout package that is going to support them in making meaningful changes as they move forward with this transition in their lives :)
