An Online Event to Help You Feel Like Yourself Again Only Better
Step into a new season where every symptom becomes a signal and every decision moves you closer to feeling like yourself again. This is your time to take charge of your health, your body, and your future with confidence, clarity, and community.
At this summit, you’ll hear from a range of practitioners with varying approaches to treatment, one of the world’s leading gut health researchers, fascia and fitness experts who advise Halle Berry’s Respin platform (including one with a PhD in menopause). We learn about root causes and why perimenopause and menopause must be treated as separate stages.
You’ll get straight talk on hormone therapy 101 and alternate approaches to the “hormone therapy will fix it” narrative. We'll even cover the powerful role grief, movement, trauma, and emotional expression play in this stage of life.
Learn about plant-based remedies like microdosing, the latest supplement strategies, hear wisdom from a sleep expert who isn’t on social media, and much more.
This Isn’t Their First Hot Flash
(But it might be your first time feeling this understood)
Meet Your Host:
Ann Marie McQueen
Ann Marie McQueen is the founder of Hotflash inc, a global digital media platform devoted to the perimenopause, menopause, and midlife transition. Through a research-backed newsletter, podcast, and social media, she delivers evidence, expert insights, and lived experience to more than 50,000 people navigating this pivotal life phase.
A long-time health and wellness journalist, Ann Marie coalesces data, context, and nuance to help women make informed decisions for their whole selves—body, mind, soul, and community. She takes no sides, always looking for the true truth across polarizing spaces. Prior to founding Hotflash Inc, she was the founding editor of the UAE’s health platform Livehealthy, features editor at The National, and a national columnist for Sun Media in Canada. She has won awards for excellence in health reporting from the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario and the the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada.
Ann Marie has been covering health and wellness for nearly 30 years, driven by a deeper motivation she only came to understand later in life: the early loss of her mother, Christine, to pancreatic cancer at age 53. A nurse who suffered from migraines, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and surgical menopause without hormone therapy, Christine’s experience ignited Ann Marie’s lifelong search for answers—and better prevention tools—for herself and for others.
It’s Not Just You. And You’re Not Losing It.
Throughout the summit, you’ll hear from trusted experts who speak your language and help you decode what’s really happening in your body. From hormones and brain fog to sleep, energy, and self-image, these sessions straight talk, and zero judgment.
