•OnlineRedefining Weight Management in Midlife
OnlineWeight management in midlife is not about willpower or restriction. During perimenopause and menopause, hormonal shifts, changes in body composition, sleep disruption, insulin resistance risk, and stress physiology can alter how the body regulates appetite, energy, and fat storage.
Many women find that their usual strategies don’t feel as effective anymore, simply because their physiology is shifting and their bodies need a more tailored approach in midlife.
This live webinar offers a fresh, integrative perspective on metabolic wellness for midlife women. Three trusted experts will share practical, compassionate strategies grounded in science, strength, and mind-body medicine. You’ll learn how to work with your body, not against it, while supporting muscle, mood, metabolic flexibility, and long-term health.
Each speaker will share evidence-informed tools and complimentary downloadable resources to help you apply what you learn right away.
You Will Discover
- How hormonal changes influence appetite, insulin sensitivity, and body composition
- The connection between muscle health, strength training, and metabolic flexibility
- How mindful movement and balanced nutrition support focus and well-being

•OnlineThe Emotional Edge of Perimenopause & Menopause
OnlineClick here to register: LINK
Perimenopause has a way of surfacing emotions women have carried quietly for years. Anxiety rises. Patience thins. Rage appears in moments that feel out of proportion. Many women wonder why they suddenly feel overwhelmed even as they continue to hold families, careers, and relationships together.
In this candid and grounded conversation, menopause nurse practitioner Nancy Roy and certified menopause specialist coach Micheline Nader come together to illuminate what is actually happening beneath the surface. They will explore how hormonal fluctuations intersect with the weight of midlife responsibilities, why anxiety is often acknowledged while rage remains unspoken, and how women can begin to recognize these emotional surges as signals rather than personal shortcomings.
This session is designed to blend scientific clarity with real-world wisdom. Nancy will explain the biological and hormonal patterns that shape emotional intensity during perimenopause. Micheline will speak to the psychological and identity-level shifts women encounter in midlife, offering simple grounding practices that help restore presence during moments of overwhelm. Together, they will create a space where women can understand their experiences without shame and begin to access steadier ground.
You Will Discover
- Why perimenopause amplifies anxiety and anger, and what your body may be communicating
- The interaction between hormones, stress load, and emotional reactivity in midlife
- How unacknowledged rage shows up in daily life, including for high-functioning women
- Grounding practices that help interrupt emotional spirals
- Approaches for supporting both physical and emotional well-being with your providers
- Ways to prepare for conversations with clinicians, partners, or loved ones
