FREE "MIDLIFE RELATIONSHIPS” WEBINAR
THURS 26th SEPTEMBER, 8pm AEST
This webinar is designed for couples, to stimulate frank discussions about midlife relationship and intimacy issues.
Meet "Mr and Mrs Meno,” a couple who are navigating life and their relationship through the peri/menopausal transition.
Who are they? What challenges does Midlife throw at them? How do they manage these challenges day to day whilst still remaining connected as a couple and honouring their individual needs and growth? What if they can’t???
Clinical psychologist and podcaster Todd Zemek teams up with WellFemme menopause expert Dr. Rosie Ross to explore the pitfalls and opportunities that midlife presents in relationships. WellFemme Founder Dr Kelly Teagle will facilitate as they discuss:
- The gendered perspective of our partners, relationship and menopausal symptoms (from both sides),
- Tips on nurturing a supportive relationship at this time,
- How partners can support their loved one through the menopausal transition, and
- How women can communicate their needs effectively
NOTE: We will present a cis/hetero couple as the example, but the experiences and advice are mostly translatable to other non-intimate and non-hetero relationships as well.
Registrants are welcome to pre-submit questions to [email protected] ahead of the webinar or via the Q&A function during the live event.
