The pink. The smiles. The steps we took together. 💗👟

Sixty seconds can only capture a little of what October 3 felt like—but this community made the Millions for Menopause 5K a day to remember.

To everyone who walked, ran, cheered, volunteered, spoke, donated, partnered, sponsored, or contributed in-kind: THANK YOU. You helped make menopause visible and made this gathering possible.

A special thank-you to our major sponsor, Pandia Health. 💕

Our “why” keeps us moving: women deserve answers, relief, and care that takes their experiences seriously.

We walked for more research, better care, and less stigma. For honest conversations and stronger support. For every woman who needs to hear, “You don’t have to navigate this alone.”

Today is World Menopause Day, and I want to say something plainly: menopause deserves far more attention than it gets.

Nearly every woman will go through it. It affects our sleep, our focus, our heart and bone health, and our careers, often for years. Yet women are still too often told to just push through, and research into menopause care remains badly underfunded. For women of color and underserved communities, the gaps are even wider.

That's why I founded MPowered Menopause. We're working to:
🔬 Fund research into menopause care, including hormone therapy
📚 Give women trusted, accessible information
🤝 Break the silence so menopause is discussed openly, at home, at work, and with our doctors

This month, our community walked together in Prospect Park for the Millions 4 Menopause Walk, part of our mission to raise $1 million for menopause research.

Here's my ask today: start a conversation. Check in on the women in your life. And if you're in a position to help, support the research that will make this stage of life healthier for the next generation.

Menopause isn't an ending. With the right care and knowledge, it can be a powerful new beginning.

TONIGHT = BIB & BUILD 💗👟

We’re getting race weekend started early.

📍 Someday Bar, Brooklyn
🕓 4–7 PM
364 Atlantic Ave

Come grab your bib + t-shirt, meet the people you’ll be walking beside Saturday, and help us build the energy before we hit the pavement.

This week we’ve been talking about 4 ways to contribute:

1️⃣ Sign up
2️⃣ SHOW UP
3️⃣ Spread the word
4️⃣ Support

Tonight is #2.

And as Menopause Awareness Month begins, that feels especially important.

Showing up says:

💗 This deserves attention.
💗 Women deserve better care and better answers.
💗 We are stronger when we do this together.

So come hang with us tonight.

Pick up your bib. Grab your t-shirt. Build some community. Then meet us at the starting line Saturday.

2 DAYS TO GO. 🔥

3 DAYS. 💗👟

Okay… now it’s starting to feel REAL.

We’re just a day away from Bib & Build, which means somewhere right now people are:

👟 deciding which sneakers to wear
👕 planning the race-day outfit
🎧 making the perfect playlist
💧 remembering they should probably start hydrating
📱 texting their walking buddies
🧦 hunting down their lucky socks
…and wondering what exactly you’re supposed to bring to a 5K anyway. 😂

Here’s the good news:

You don’t need to be a “runner” to do race day right.

A few of our favorite 5K traditions + tips:

✨ Lay everything out the night before
✨ Wear shoes and clothes you already know are comfortable
✨ Hydrate before Saturday — not just Saturday morning
✨ Eat the breakfast that works for you
✨ Charge your phone
✨ Check the weather + bring a layer if you need one
✨ Pick a meeting spot with your people
✨ Take the pre-race picture — you’ll want it later
✨ Make the playlist
✨ And take a second before you start to remember why you showed up

Run it.

Walk it.

Dance across the finish line if you feel like it.

Just bring yourself.

And whether we see you at Bib & Build or meet you at the starting line Saturday, we’ve got a little something waiting for you. 👀🎁

Our incredible donors have filled our bags with some self-care for the people bringing so much care to this cause.

THANK YOU 💗
