I view the change of menopause as an alchemical process, a soul transformation, a gateway of initiation into the deepest realms of feminine […]
The most terrible and beautiful and interesting things happen in a life. For some of you, those things have already happened. Whatever happens to you belongs to you. Make it yours.

For your cozy weekend, which hopefully includes lots of space for tea and blankets, perhaps a conversation with someone who helps you remember your value, maybe a leisurely dinner or brunch, we’ve collected some images of beauty and rest on this specially curated Pinterest board.

The Vivid Menopause Online Journey called me from the moment I first saw the website, and it did not disappoint. This was a program that I felt I was destined to take. Bronwyn gently and courageously guided me and the other participants into connecting with our past and our new sacred journey as Wise Women. Through this course I met other beautiful soul sisters from all over the world, who all offered wonderful support and encouragement. I also elected to complete the Leadership Course and am honoured to now offer Bronwyn’s and Annagrace’s Vivid Menopause work in Australia. This is the New Menopause – an empowering and sacred journey and I would strongly encourage you to journey with us.
