Before the Pause: A Perimenopause Experience & Community Conversation

An empowering event bringing women, and those who love them, together for education, expert insight, and meaningful connection.

6PM Pre-Conversation with Experts | 7PM Screening

Perimenopause is the transitional phase leading up to menopause, often beginning in a woman’s late 30s or 40s, where shifting hormones can bring unexpected changes—irregular cycles, mood swings, sleep disruption, anxiety, brain fog, and more. For many, it feels confusing, isolating, and dismissed. Before the Pause, inspired by the documentary The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause, is a powerful community experience designed to help you understand what’s happening in your body, feel seen in your experience, and gain the knowledge and support you need to navigate this phase with clarity and confidence.

This intimate gathering invites you into a much-needed conversation about what happens before menopause officially begins. Through shared stories, expert insight, and meaningful connection, we create space to explore the physical, emotional, and psychological shifts of perimenopause—without shame, confusion, or dismissal.

Because the truth is: what you're feeling is real. And you don’t have to navigate it alone.
