Let’s Talk Menopause
October 16 @ 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM
FreeYou’re invited to a conversation about menopause with Dr. Carrie Leff. A subject that has long been clouded and dismissed will be directly addressed by Dr. Leff. We will explore the physical, emotional, and social changes during this stage of life, creating space to learn, connect and normalize the experience.
