About us
Welcome to the Konenki Menopause Support Group!
In Japanese culture, "Konenki" signifies "renewal years" and "energy," reflecting a positive and empowering perspective on menopause as a time of personal growth and transformation.
Our group is dedicated to embracing this philosophy by providing a supportive community for women navigating the peri-menopausal and menopausal journey. We offer both online and in-person events, ensuring accessibility and convenience for all members. All events are free or low-cost, with any fees solely covering food or facility expenses.
We are proud to collaborate with the region's most highly-vetted menopause providers, who will share their expertise and offer educational sessions at our events.
Join us to connect with like-minded women, gain valuable insights, and celebrate this transformative phase of life together.
We look forward to welcoming you to our community!

More Than Hormones: Understanding Mood, Food & Energy in Midlife
·OnlineOnlineAfter RSVP, PLEASE COMPLETE THIS FORM --> LINK HERE!
Midlife health is rarely one thing. Most of the time, it is several things at once, and they make far more sense together than apart.
- One conversation looks at mood and mental health in midlife, and how everyday support and medication can work together rather than competing.
- Another looks at food and nourishment, and how simple cooking can quietly steady your energy and your hormones.
- A third looks at the nervous system and your sense of self, including a live EFT tapping practice you can keep using at home.
About the Speakers
- Erin Tanner, FNP-C, PMHNP-BC, PMH-C, founder of Achieve Mental Health and Wellness, on mood, mental health, and where medication fits alongside everything else.
- Debbie Brosnan of The Effortless Kitchen, an Amazon bestselling cookbook author, on how simple, nourishing cooking supports your energy and hormones.
- Carrie Neveldine of Vibrant Over 50, a Health and Wellness Coach and EFT practitioner, on the nervous system, identity, and a live tapping practice you can take home.
A moderated panel with an opening breathwork moment, live questions, and a closing tapping session.
