What we’re about
Welcome to my female friends who want to meet other women in midlife & beyond, enjoy a positive environment that fosters whole-life wellness, and focus on feeling good (whatever that looks like for you!).
Respectfully, this is a group designed for women in midlife and beyond - including cisgender women, trans women, and nonbinary individuals - who are navigating life transitions such as aging, perimenopause, menopause, hormonal changes, and empty nesting.
I started this group to provide opportunities to meet in person each month to chat about life, spark friendships, support one another, and have some fun, dammit! Two years in, I'm adding online events to create space for women outside of PHX to experience the magic of this group.
GenX Connects and other select events include guided discussions around a topic related to midlife & beyond (you know...sleep, empty-nesting, prioritizing our needs, peri/menopause, financial wellness, & more based on your feedback).
Other events support women-owned businesses and/or provide opportunities to create whole-life wellness (the Eight Dimensions of Wellness are: Social, Intellectual, Spiritual, Physical, Emotional, Environmental, Occupational, and Financial).
And some events are strictly to have fun while enjoying one another's company!
This group honors introverts and extroverts alike. Please join and be active in the discussions, attend events, connect, share, support, and learn. Let's have fun and celebrate where we are in life!
Check out the discussion tab for weekly quotes by inspiring women (usually on Fridays) and to engage with other members. I ask for feedback from the group in the discussions as well. Hope to see you there!
I send out emails on Wednesdays and every other Sunday. If you'd like to be on my email list, YOU CAN JOIN HERE.

Women Wandering Together
Papago Park, 625 N Gavin Pkwy, Phoenix , AZ, USWomen Wandering Together – Join me outside and let’s wander!
Welcome! If you’re looking for a women’s only hiking group, you’ve come to the right place.My intention is to create:
- A safe group for women to explore a variety of trails in the Greater Phoenix/Scottsdale area.
- A creative and healing outlet for women who are also interested in photography.
- A community where women can share their local trails or interesting sights for photos.
It’s scientifically proven that being out in nature provides a healthy boost to our physical, emotional, and spiritual wellness. Women Wandering Together will help boost your social wellness, too!
We’ll meet on Saturday or Sunday mornings at different trails around the Greater Phoenix/Scottsdale area. The trails will be easy to moderate and take about 1.5 to 2.5 hours. Please arrive on time!
Our First Hike: Let’s meet at Papago Buttes in Central Phoenix. This is an easy hike with gorgeous red rock views. Situated near the Desert Botanical Garden and Phoenix Zoo.
RSVP Policy: If you RSVP but are unable to attend a hike, you must change your RSVP to “Not Going.” Safety is our top priority, and we do not want any women going to a trail and ending up alone due to “no shows.”
Hike Day Communication: Communication will include group text chats in case of any unforeseen circumstances or emergencies on hike days.
What to Bring:
- The trails are rocky and can be slippery so it’s easy to twist an ankle if you aren’t paying attention. I HIGHLY recommend shoes designed for hiking with good tread on them.
- You MUST bring at least 1L (32 oz) of water with you. You may want a headlamp for early morning starts when we do sunrise/golden hour photography hikes. Sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat are always smart.

**ELEVATE members: use your code to save $5 on this event.
Want to meet other women in midlife & beyond, enjoy a positive environment that fosters whole-life wellness, and feel REALLY good after two hours?
GenX Connects offers a chance to talk about topics relevant to midlife and beyond, listen and share compassionately, and have fun! It's two hours to boost your well-being and learn from other women.
Gather around my patio table to socialize over non-alcoholic morning beverages and spend about an hour in a guided discussion around a specific topic.
The topic this month is abundance!
Let’s talk about the gifts in your life. How do you express gratitude for them? How do you attract more of them?
Our conversation will help you open your mind and heart to the abundance that surrounds you. Leave with expansive feelings that remind you abundance isn’t about more, more, more. It’s about noticing, appreciating, and inviting in all that supports and nourishes you in midlife and beyond.
I created GenX Connects for women in midlife and beyond who are navigating life transitions such as aging, perimenopause, menopause, hormonal changes, and empty nesting. Respectfully, I do my best to provide a safe and welcoming environment where sensitive issues related to the transformative season of midlife and beyond can be discussed.
