Master Class Description

Pause To Action with Dr Gigi Kroll - A Master Class -

Join us for an empowering, information-rich master class designed to support women through midlife, perimenopause, and menopause. This transformative event brings together five leading experts in women’s health—each offering evidence-based insight into the most meaningful changes occurring during this stage of life.

Together, we’ll explore hormonal shifts, common symptoms, metabolic and weight changes, musculoskeletal impacts, neurocognitive and cardiovascular health, and the ways declining hormones affect skin and hair. We’ll also dive into lifestyle strategies, hormone therapy options, and evidence-supported interventions that help women feel stronger, clearer, and more in control.

Each expert will present in a lecture-style format, followed by an open Q&A designed to give you direct access to the answers you’ve been searching for. Our goal is for you to leave not only informed, but seen, supported, and empowered to confidently advocate for your health.

Attendees will enjoy light snacks and refreshments, genuine connection with other women, and access to guidance that’s rarely available all in one room.

This is your moment to pause, learn, and take action—with trusted experts leading the way.
