Lighten Up! Starting with Gentle Purpose

Workshop Description

January tells you to do more. More goals. More discipline. More fixing. But if you’re honest… Your body already feels tight. Your energy already feels thin. And part of you is thinking, “I can’t do another year like last year.” This isn’t a failure of motivation. It’s a nervous system that’s been carrying too much for too long ~ the invisible load of to-dos and family care that most women carry. Plus for many midlife women, there’s another layer no one warned us about: perimenopause. Shifting hormones can lower stress tolerance, disrupt sleep, amplify overwhelm, and make pushing through feel impossible. The same load you used to manage now feels heavier — not because you’re weak, but because your body is changing. What This Workshop Is Lighten Up is a 90-minute live, interactive workshop designed to help you start the year with clarity instead of self-criticism. This isn’t about fixing your hormones or reinventing yourself. It’s about learning how to work with your body and energy in this season of life. You’ll learn how to: • Notice the invisible load you’re carrying into the New Year. • Stop pushing against your body and variable energy. • Understand why overwhelm and perimenopause hits harder in current midlifers than previous generations. • Create a clear, grounded focus to start the year. No overwhelm. No guilt. • Move forward in a way that actually feels sustainable. No hustle. No performative resolutions. No “new you” nonsense. What We’ll Do Together ✔ Name the invisible load (mental, emotional, physical) ✔ Separate what truly matters from what can be released ✔ Reframe “resolution” into direction + purpose ✔ Use Human Design to understand how you’re built to use your energy ✔ Choose one aligned focus to start the year ✔ Identify small, realistic actions you can take this week ✔ Spacious time for Q&A Why This Is Different Most New Year planning ignores two things that matter most in midlife: • Your nervous system • How your energy actually works — especially during perimenopause Catie brings a science-backed, holistic nursing lens rooted in nervous-system regulation, midlife women's health, and healthspan (how long you live functionally!). Nani brings Human Design insight into how different bodies engage with purpose, action, and obligation. Together, we help you stop forcing… and start aligning — with your body, your energy, and this phase of life. 💖 Where: Live on Zoom When: Thur Jan 22, 10am - 11:30am pacific Investment: $22
