Join us at the shop for The (M) Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause explores the hidden impact of menopause on women's lives.
About this Event

Menopause has ramifications beyond just an individual woman’s well-being. The far-ranging results of women enduring untreated menopause include billions of dollars in lost wages, upended careers, family disruptions, and emotional chaos.


With evidence-based information, the film empowers women to make informed health decisions and aims to remove the stigma surrounding menopause and aging - which makes it the perfect movie night for Galentine's Day at Ms. Moxie's Moon Shop.


Ticket includes screening of the film, snacks and beverages (boozy and non-boozy) plus a discussion following the film with our Moxie Community and practitioners and VIP discounts and raffles.


So grab your peri-galentines and join us for this important screening and discussion!

More About the Film:

This feature-length documentary film, centers on the lived experiences of women across the U.S. Cameras follow women into their doctors’ offices, at work, and in their homes to expose the challenges they face—including racial biases, gender-ignorant care, inequitable structures and systems, and barriers due to the lack of basic midlife healthcare research. The women featured here open up about their experiences and share their stories of enduring debilitating symptoms while being ignored, ridiculed and/or shamed—and left untreated.


Now there’s a movement to fix the broken system, change the culture and transform our future. “The (M) Factor” turns the spotlight on the progress being made. With input from emboldened physicians, healthcare advocates and leaders in the menopause movement, the film focuses on what is being done to address this public health crisis and offers solutions that can be replicated in medical communities and workplaces across the country.
