We don’t want to say you NEED this, but we’re also not not saying it...

If you’re a woman in perimenopause, your estrogen levels (and other hormones) are all over the place.

This can create drops in muscle mass, strength, recovery, mental clarity and the most common complaint - energy!

Getting a daily dose of creatine has been shown to support:

💪🏽 muscle strength and lean muscle mass
⚡️ energy production during and post exercise
🦴 bone health when combined with resistance training
🧠 brain energy and cognitive function

It’s no longer the “gym-bro” supplement it once was and it may be something that can improve how you’re feeling during this season of your life!

And if you’ d like to learn more about perimenopause and the impacts on your brain and body, be sure to grab your ticket to our live screening event:

If you’ve been seeing our event posts and are still wondering if its for you...swipe to find out

Perimenopause and menopause affect half the population, yet so many women are left wondering whether what they’re experiencing is “normal.”

Let’s change that.

Join The Village Apothecary (Millbrook’s health food store) for a special screening of The M Factor 2, followed by a live panel discussion with healthcare professionals who work with women every day.

You’ll have the opportunity to ask your own questions, hear practical advice, and leave with a better understanding of what this stage of life really looks like and what can be done to help.

While many women will come with their girlfriends, we believe that every man should understand what the woman in his life is going through, and encourage you to bring your partner and make it a date.

As the owner of the Apothecary, I (Brenda Leonard), am also bringing my husband, and honorary handyman to The Apothecary.

This event is for both men and women. The more we understand menopause together, the better we can support one another.

Your ticket includes:
✨ Screening of The M Factor 2
✨ Live expert panel discussion
✨ Audience Q&A with the panel
✨ An afternoon of education, conversation, and community

Whether you’re in your 30s, 40s, 50s, beyond, or simply want to better understand and support someone you love, we’d love to see you there.

Our next panelist thrives in helping find yourself when you’re at the crossroads of identity exploration, transitioning through the various phases of life, or pursuing a deeper sense of belonging.

Without further ado, we wanted to introduce you to Sheena Howard, a Nurse Psychotherapist and the owner and founder of Acceptance Nurse Psychotherapy.

With over two decades of enriching, joyful, and oftentimes unbelievably funny experiences, Sheena’s journey has been marked by an unwavering passion for supporting individuals, couples, and families as they navigate the path toward well-being and connection.

Why are we so excited to have her join our panel?

Perimenopause is not just a time of physical changes. Many women experience a shift in identity during this stage of life.

This can include questioning long-held beliefs and challenging of expectations placed on them by others (including societal expectations).

Menopause also tends to coincide with other life transitions including caring for aging parents, children leaving the home, and even navigating new phases of a career. All of this experienced alongside hormonal changes and physical symptoms can have a profound impact on women.

Sheena is a wealth of knowledge in this area. We cannot wait for you to learn from her.

As the owner of The Village Apothecary, and a woman experiencing perimenopause symptoms, I will be bringing my husband to this event.

Why?

Because everything that impacts me also impacts him. And when he understands what I am experiencing, he is better equipped to support me through this phase of life.

The more people who know what perimenopause is means that women everywhere feel seen and understood, and the old mentality of “just deal with it” continues to fade away.

From spouses to friends, family members and everyone in between, we invite you to bring anyone who plays a supportive role in your life.

It’s a great way to shake up your dates too. Come play a round of golf, grab some lunch and learn together.

We’d like to introduce you to Dr. Nicole Edgar, who is joining our already stacked group of incredible panelists for the M Factor 2 event!

As a naturopathic doctor with hormone prescribing rights and a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, Dr. Edgar’s practice is entrenched in all things menopause and women’s hormonal health.

She also recently completed a year-long menopause fellowship, further solidifying her knowledge in supporting women through this phase of life.

Dr. Edgar is passionate about helping women go from feeling burnt out and unheard to energized and educated. She enjoys teaching women about their bodies so that they feel empowered to take control of their health.

We have a feeling you’re going to learn a lot from her, and can’t wait for you to be able to pick her brain!

Beet root powder is rich in naturally occurring polyphenols and dietary nitrate.

In the body, nitrate is converted into nitric oxide, which is an important molecule involved in endothelial (cells that line you vessels & heart) and vascular function, circulation as well as blood flow regulation.

Because of this, it can also help with increasing exercise-related performance as it helps to improve circulation which aids in delivering more oxygen to your muscles.

It can also be supportive of blood pressure regulation and may aid in lowering blood pressure levels.

Some studies suggest that bioactive compounds found in beets may improve gastrointestinal health.

The Organic Traditions Beet Root Powder is:
😍Gluten-free
😍Free of added sugars
😍Organic and non-GMO
😍Pesticide-free
😍Third-party tested

It’s also made in Canada by a family owned brand.

Add to smoothies, juices, and water, or mix into your favorite raw recipe. The benefits and ways to use it are endless.

did you catch that statistic??? Only 15% 🤯

THIS is why documentaries like M Factor 2 are so important for women’s health and the care they receive.

EVERY woman should understand the mirage of changes their bodies and brains go through in the perimenopause transition…

AND be able to get the support they need.

Grab your girl friends and the men in your life and come to our screening of M Factor 2 on September 20.
