An in-person integrative panel designed to bring clarity to one of women’s most confusing and misunderstood health topics, weight management.
Join us for an evening that finally brings real understanding to women’s weight and metabolism — without the oversimplified advice or one-size-fits-all messages so many women have received over the years.
Purely Present Health is pleased to present this event as part of the Integrative Health Speaker Series, a community-centered gathering designed to make thoughtful integrative and functional health education accessible.
This conversation takes a clear, root-cause look at the physiology behind women’s weight: hormones, appetite signals, sleep, chronic stress, muscle mass, and the daily patterns that shape metabolic health over time.
You’ll hear from four integrative experts who will break down complex science into meaningful insights you can apply in daily life.
We’ll explore topics like:
• How hormones, appetite signals, and stress physiology shape women’s weight and metabolic patterns
• Why muscle is a key metabolic organ and how strength training supports healthy weight over time
• The ways sleep, daily rhythms, and nervous system cues influence cravings, blood sugar, and metabolism
• Practical strategies that help women work with their physiology rather than against it
Whether you are seeking insight into your weight and metabolism, looking to connect the dots between your habits and physiology, or wanting guidance that makes sense for real life, this evening will help you understand your body in a more meaningful way.
Doors open at 6:00 pm! Shop our local vendors before the event.
