Ready to dive deep into your menopause journey?
The Alchemy of Menopause
a live-online hybrid course into the hidden gifts of menopause
with April Coburn and Cathy Skipper


I've been working with perimenopausal women in my practice for some time now. It is amazing to see the relief of symptoms that are achievable with simple diet and lifestyle changes, along with herbal allies to help. However, I always felt something was missing from this work. Many women experience deeply stressful times as they move into perimenopause. Anxiety may increase, and they can even be surprised be unexpected anger and rage.

Historically, women have either not been believed, or put on psych meds for these symptoms. In my practice, we can often lessen uncomfortable emotional symptoms with herbal formulas and deep nourishment. Yet, I felt I was missing something... that these emotions were somehow important and it may be a mistake to just try to silence them.

When I discovered Cathy Skipper's work, bringing in depth psychology to create a unique framework for processing the mental and emotional symptoms that arise during menopause, I knew this was the answer. Cathy's work is the other half of the story, and when we combine both of our work, we get a complete, holistic blueprint for navigating the perimenopause and menopause experience in an empowered way.

The Alchemy of Menopause is a 9-module self-paced course that brings together my teaching on how to care for your changing body during the menopause transition using diet, lifestyle, herbs, and other supports, with Cathy's alchemical stages framework for working with mental and emotional symptoms. Together, this course offers you an empowering toolbox for navigating your way through your unique menopausal journey. 

Plus,  Cathy and I host live Q&A sessions while you work through the material.

"I found the Alchemy of Menopause hybrid journey to be profoundly rewarding, far exceeding my expectations. Among its most valuable elements to me were: 1) the integration of both physical and psychological perspectives, offering a holistic view of self; 2) the alchemical framework that grounds this life transition in practical ways; 3) the expert guidance of Cathy and April, who created a safe space for authentic conversations; and 4) the depth of the material and timely feedback throughout the journey. I emerged with a new vocabulary and set of tools to navigate the menopausal landscape—and beyond—with greater empowerment. I loved it so much that I now feel inspired to delve deeper into this journey through the Mentorship Program. If you’re considering it, trust your instincts; that may just be your Divine Feminine speaking!"
