A sensory‑aligned workshop for neurodivergent women navigating perimenopause with support and community.
About this Event

Perimenopause is a major transition — and for neurodivergent women, it often comes with sensory changes, emotional shifts, executive functioning challenges, and communication mismatches that aren’t talked about in traditional health spaces.

This workshop is a safe space for ND women to:

  • share experiences
  • learn about neurodivergent physiology in perimenopause
  • understand why executive function and masking go out the window
  • understand sensory and hormonal interactions via peer-reviewed research
  • explore communication strategies for clinical appointments
  • connect with others navigating similar changes

This is a community-centered, non-clinical workshop designed to support vulnerability, belonging, and shared understanding. You’re welcome exactly as you are — masked, unmasked, quiet, talkative, curious, overwhelmed, or unsure.

This workshop is for:

  • Autistic women
  • ADHD women
  • AuDHD women
  • Highly sensitive women
  • Women with sensory processing differences
  • Women who suspect they may be neurodivergent

This workshop is not:

  • A medical appointment
  • A diagnostic space
  • A clinical seminar (that comes later!)

It’s a place to be human together.
Each participant will take home a curated mini-comfort sensory kit to reflect on their perimenopause journey.
