Speaker Series: Celebrating Womanhood — Navigating Menopause with Confidence [March 7, 2027]

An International Women's Day Conversation with the Menopause Care Collective

Sunday, March 7, 2027 | 3:00–4:30 PM
Churchill's Fine Teas – Madisonville | $5 per person

Every stage of womanhood deserves understanding, care, and celebration.

In honor of International Women's Day, Churchill's Fine Teas welcomes the Menopause Care Collective (MCC) for a special afternoon of tea, education, and meaningful conversation about women's health and well-being.

Menopause is a natural transition in a woman's life, yet it is often surrounded by unanswered questions, misconceptions, and conversations that don't happen often enough. How can we better understand the changes happening in our bodies? What roles do nutrition, emotional wellness, relationships, and medical care play in navigating this transition? And how can we support ourselves and one another with greater knowledge and confidence?

Join three healthcare and wellness professionals for an approachable, evidence-informed discussion of perimenopause, menopause, and life beyond. Enjoy thoughtfully selected teas from Churchill's as we explore women's well-being, share perspectives, and create space for questions that deserve thoughtful answers.

Understanding Menopause: Knowledge, Care & Confidence

Menopause affects far more than menstrual cycles. Changes in hormones can influence sleep, temperature regulation, mood, energy, sexual well-being, and everyday quality of life. Each woman's experience is unique, and understanding the available resources and care options can make a meaningful difference.

Our expert panel will explore menopause from three complementary perspectives:

• Physical Health & Menopause Care: Understand common changes during perimenopause and menopause, recognize symptoms worth discussing with a healthcare professional, and learn about evidence-based care options.
• Nutrition & Everyday Well-Being: Explore how nutrition and lifestyle habits can support health during midlife, including bone health, heart health, and overall wellness.
• Emotional Health, Intimacy & Relationships: Discover how menopause can influence emotional well-being, intimacy, and relationships, and learn ways to encourage open communication and connection.

Following the presentation, we'll open the floor for an interactive Q&A, allowing guests to ask questions and gain practical insights from the panel. Whether you're currently navigating menopause, preparing for the years ahead, supporting someone you love, or simply interested in learning more, you're warmly welcome.

Meet the Menopause Care Collective

The Menopause Care Collective (MCC) is a volunteer-led group of healthcare and wellness professionals dedicated to educating, empowering, and supporting women through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond. Through free and accessible community events, MCC members generously volunteer their time and expertise to share evidence-based information, encourage meaningful conversations, and help women feel informed and supported.

We're delighted to welcome three members of the Collective:

• Ronda Lehn — Nurse Practitioner. Bringing a clinical perspective to menopause, Ronda will help guests better understand the physical changes associated with this transition and the importance of informed, individualized healthcare.
• Lisa Andrews — Registered Dietitian. Lisa will explore the role of nutrition in supporting women's health during midlife, offering practical perspectives on nourishment and everyday well-being.
• Julie Labanz — Sex & Relationship Therapist. Julie will address the emotional and relational dimensions of menopause, including intimacy, communication, and maintaining meaningful connections through life's changes.

Together, these three perspectives offer a more complete understanding of menopause—not simply as a physical transition, but as an important chapter of life deserving thoughtful care and support.

Tea, Well-Being & the Power of Connection

At Churchill's Fine Teas, we believe tea offers more than a delicious beverage. It creates opportunities to slow down, connect with others, and make space for meaningful conversations. Throughout the afternoon, we'll serve a selection of teas and briefly explore how tea can fit into everyday self-care and well-being. From the comfort of a warm cup to the calming ritual of preparing tea, these simple moments can encourage relaxation and intentional living.  Tea is not a treatment for menopause, but it can be a comforting part of a broader approach to well-being.

As a woman-owned business, Churchill's is especially honored to celebrate International Women's Day by bringing women together to learn, share, and encourage one another. Celebrating womanhood means supporting women at every stage of life.
