In honor of Women’s Health Month, IAW San Diego invites you to an eye-opening conversation exploring the science and lived experience behind women’s health and wellbeing.

Many professional women focus on careers, families, and responsibilities while quietly navigating changes in energy, mood, metabolism, and overall health. Yet many of the factors influencing how women feel in their bodies are rarely discussed openly.

This panel brings together medical expertise and mind–body insight to help women better understand the physiological and emotional influences shaping their wellbeing.

Through science, experience, and conversation, this event creates space for women to gain clarity, ask questions, and walk away with knowledge they can use to support their health.
