Welcome to my Events & Appearances page—your go-to spot to see where The Menopause OT is showing up to educate, empower, and support women through the menopause transition.
Here, you'll find upcoming wellness fairs, community events, menopause workshops, and recent podcast interviews or media features. I love connecting with women in real life and virtually to share evidence-based information, break down stigma, and offer real tools for thriving in midlife and beyond.
I'm passionate about creating spaces where women feel informed, validated, and heard—whether it's a small group workshop, a community wellness event, or a keynote presentation.
Interested in collaborating? I never shut up about menopause!
I’m available for educational events, workplace wellness presentations, custom menopause workshops, and speaking engagements. Let’s work together to bring impactful, empowering menopause education to your group or organization.
