Sip & Share: a friday night hang for midlife women

Hormones change—and sometimes it feels like everything else changes with them.

Your skin feels different. Your clothes fit differently. And the person looking back at you in the mirror may not feel quite as familiar.

If you've ever thought, "What is happening — and how do I feel like myself again?" — you're not alone.

Join us for a warm, honest conversation about navigating skincare, personal style and confidence through perimenopause and beyond. You’ll learn practical ways to care for your changing skin and body, feel more comfortable in what you wear and reconnect with yourself in this new season.

This isn’t about looking younger or changing your body. It’s about understanding what’s happening—and finding new ways to feel good, confident and at home in the body you have today.

Think less workshop, lecture or group therapy—and more relaxed Friday night with wine, cheese and a room full of women navigating midlife alongside you.

Share if you’d like. Listen if you prefer. Come exactly as you are.
