"There is strength here, even if you don't feel strong today."

Meet Genessa Zickefoose, one of our incredible Vetted Konenki Providers and one of our speakers on Bone Health in Midlife: What's Actually Happening and What You Can Do.

Genessa is a clinical herbalist, holistic wellness coach, and the founder of The Mother Hive in Connecticut, where she has helped midlife women find balance since 2012. After her own unexpected transition into premature menopause in her mid-thirties, she works from both lived experience and herbal-rooted expertise, helping women understand that their bones are constantly rebuilding and adapting, not simply wearing down.

I was a featured speaker on Konenki Menopause's Bone Health in Midlife panel, alongside the other Vetted Konenki Providers.

I shared the wise woman approach to bone health, my four favorite mineral-rich herbs, and a guided meditation to help you feel the quiet strength in your own skeleton.

If you have been carrying a fear of getting older or of your body feeling more fragile, there is a gentler, nourishing way to tend to it.

Most women don't think much about their bones until a scan result, a diagnosis, or a conversation with a doctor suddenly makes it feel urgent.

What many women aren't told is that bone loss often begins years before menopause is official. It happens quietly, and the opportunity to support bone health starts earlier than most people realize.

If you've wondered what you should be tracking, whether strength training really matters, or what role nutrition and hormones play, this conversation is for you.

We're bringing together three specialists, each holding a different piece of the picture.

Join us for:
Bone Health in Midlife: What’s Actually Happening and What You Can Do

July 7 | 6:30 PM ET

Featuring:
• Adam Gray, Gray Method Online Health and Fitness
• Sarah Weaver, NP, Entourage Health
• Genessa Zickefoose, The Mother Hive

Together, they'll explore the biology of bone remodeling, the clinical markers and risk factors worth understanding, and the nourishing practices that can support bone health alongside clinical care.

Because understanding what's happening is the first step toward protecting your health for the years ahead.

Join us on July 7 at 6:30 PM ET to learn why bone density declines over time, why strength training is the fountain of youth, and practical strategies you can start using right away to feel more informed, empowered, and confident about your bone health moving forward.
