M Factor 2 - Before the Pause - Perimenopause - Screening

The M Factor 2: Before the Pause shines a light on perimenopause - the often-ignored decade before menopause that quietly upends women's health, careers, relationships, and sense of self. Through candid personal stories and conversations with leading experts, the film exposes why so many women are dismissed, misdiagnosed, or left without answers at a time when they need support most.

What the film covers:

• Symptoms that are real, not "just stress" and why women are so often told otherwise
• The workplace cost no one talks about, from classrooms to firehouses
• Physicians acknowledging the training gaps that leave patients without clear answers
• Why early education and awareness can change everything: your health, your career, your identity

This event is for you if…

• Something feels off in your late 30s–50s and no one has a real explanation
• You've been told your symptoms are anxiety, burnout, or depression
• You want to understand your hormones before you hit full menopause
• You're an HR professional, clinician, or wellness advocate who supports women

Meet the panel

The conversation doesn't stop when the film ends. Stay for a live Q&A with experts covering every dimension of the perimenopause experience.

OB/GYN - Clinical picture & hormone therapy What's actually happening in your body, how hormonal changes are diagnosed, and when hormone therapy makes sense - straight from a physician who takes this seriously.

Fitness & movement - Training your body through the transition Why the workouts that used to work no longer do, how to train for muscle preservation and bone density, and what midlife women actually need from movement.

Nutrition - Fueling your body when everything shifts The real story behind midlife weight changes, metabolic shifts, blood sugar regulation, and what to eat to support your hormones - without restriction or fad diets.

Mental & emotional health - Identity, mood, and the emotional landscape of midlife Anxiety that came out of nowhere, a shorter fuse, not recognizing yourself - this isn't a mental health crisis. It's a hormonal one. Learn to navigate it with clarity and self-compassion.

Sexual wellness - Desire, intimacy, and reclaiming your body Vaginal dryness, low libido, and changes in sexual response are common and rarely discussed honestly. This conversation removes the shame and offers real solutions.

Partner support - How partners can show up, and why it matters Perimenopause doesn't happen in isolation. Partners who understand what's happening can be a powerful source of support. This is the conversation that changes relationships.

Come with your questions - this panel is designed to go where the film leaves off.
