Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology and functional medicine.  She is speaking to the topics of women's health around perimenopause and menopause.  

When Susie Stonefield emailed us and said "I make people cry with art supplies" we knew we had to follow up and ask questions!  Susie is a Creativity and Grief Coach, and teaches us how to art journal; using art supplies to help us express the feelings we cannot necessarily put words to.  Something she calls "the wordless heart".  Susie gives us permission to kindness, to compassion and to treat ourselves gently.  

Grief is an obstruction, Susie teaches us.  And it prevents us from finding balance, and experiencing the lovely parts of life often.  We shared our own experiences in this conversation - grief, midlife, holding on tight to keep the wheels on the bus, like so many of you.  I know you will find yourself and sweet relief in this beautiful conversation, just like I did.  

Susie created a gorgeous workbook for us, I loved playing with the exercises within.  🩷 You can download that workbook right here.
