About this Event
Join us for a thoughtful evening exploring women’s health and the transitions of perimenopause and menopause, paired with Seahorse Chocolate, wine, or a nonalcoholic tea offering from Metolius Tea.
The evening will include a guided conversation with wellness practitioners Laura Cooper (Physical Therapist & Life Coach) and Jenessa Thomas (Health Coach & Functional Nutritionist), who will share insights on supporting your body through hormonal shifts with knowledge, nourishment, and practical tools.
You’ll also enjoy a Seahorse Chocolate tasting, featuring Bend’s local bean-to-bar chocolate. Seahorse crafts small-batch, ethically sourced chocolate from cacao beans, highlighting the unique flavors of each origin while honoring the people and the planet.
