The Peri Portal: Why What's Working Isn't Working Anymore

​"What's wrong with me?"
"Why can't I do things the way I used to?"
"Why don't I feel like myself anymore?"

​If you've asked yourself any version of these questions lately, this evening is for you.

​Perimenopause can begin earlier than most of us were told. You could be in it for years before you notice physical symptoms — so you may already be living this without knowing it. And it's more than a hormonal shift. For many women, it's the moment when the ways we've learned to push through, hold it together, and keep going stop working the way they used to.

​Instead of seeing this as something wrong — what if it's something ready to change?

​Join us at Gladys Books and Wine for an evening centering Black women and femmes of color — whether you have a diagnosis or just recognize yourself in these questions. Expect storytelling from women living this, honest conversation, and somatic exploration.

​The only thing you need to bring is curiosity about what this season may be asking of you.

​Hosted by Blessing Uchendu, LCSW, Somatic Coach & Facilitator
