The Heart of Why This
Event Exists

Thrive Through Change is a transformative community event created to empower women as they navigate the profound transition from perimenopause to menopause and beyond.

This is an event to honour the immense contribution women make to their families, their workplaces, and our community.

This event goes beyond education.
It is a movement. A tribute. A giving-back.

For decades, women give their bodies, their minds, their hearts and their energy to raising children, supporting partners, building community and contributing professionally.

This event is here to change that.

In the spirit of uplifting women in every stage, 100% of proceeds are donated to The Tarrant Foundation, supporting women and children in hardship.

This Event is Designed
to Help You...

  • Understand the physical, emotional and psychological changes of midlife hormones
  • Feel validated, supported and less alone
  • Learn practical tools from trusted experts
  • Reconnect with your confidence, vitality and identity
  • Support women and children in crisis through charitable giving
  • Strengthen families, workplaces and our entire community

Did You Know?

  • The average woman now spends one-third to nearly half of her life in post-menopause
  • Up to 80% of women experience symptoms that impact sleep, mood, skin, energy and relationships
  • Many women are misdiagnosed or dismissed before receiving the right support
  • Hormonal transition can begin as early as the late 30s or early 40s
  • Education and lifestyle support can dramatically improve quality of life

Why This Matters

These experiences are an extension of the event’s purpose:

  • Supporting women and children in hardship
  • Showcasing local women-led businesses
  • Encouraging community generosity
  • Creating excitement throughout the day

Why This Panel Matters

No single specialist can cover menopause alone.

This life stage impacts hormones, emotions, identity, skin, sleep, relationships, metabolism and confidence — which is why this event is intentionally multidisciplinary.

By integrating medical expertise, emotional support, lifestyle strategy and external wellbeing, you receive a complete picture rather than fragmented advice.

You will leave with:

  • Clear medical understanding
  • Emotional reassurance and validation
  • Practical lifestyle and nutrition strategies
  • Movement and strength guidance
  • Skin and self-care insights
  • Tools to support sleep and stress regulation
  • A renewed sense of confidence and community

The goal is not to overwhelm you with information

it is to empower you with clarity, compassion and real-world support from every angle of wellbeing.
