THE WOMAN BETWEEN WORLDS

THE EARLY SIGNAL

A sunset gathering for women in the threshold years

Melbourne · Limited to 11 women

Something is changing.

Your cycle shifts.

Your sleep changes.

Your energy isn’t what it once was.

Your emotions may feel unfamiliar.

Your body starts asking for something you can’t quite name.

And perhaps you’ve wondered:

What the hell is happening to me?

Maybe nothing is wrong with you.

Maybe your body has simply started speaking a language you were never taught to hear.


The Early Signal is the first gathering in The Woman Between Worlds + a monthly body-led gathering for women navigating perimenopause, menopause and the years of transition beyond.

And we begin at sunset.

Why sunset?

Because sunset is a threshold too.

The light hasn’t disappeared, but the day is no longer what it was.

There is a moment of between-ness + neither day nor night.

A pause.

A crossing.

A reminder that transition doesn’t always need to be rushed through.

We can witness it.

So as the sun begins to lower, we’ll gather together and explore what it means to be a woman whose body, identity and inner landscape are changing.

This isn’t a menopause lecture.

It isn’t another “reset”.

And you don’t need to arrive with answers.

Come as you are.

We’ll gather around the campfire + metaphorically and, where possible, literally + through:

🌿 Body-led movement + gentle, intuitive and grounding

🥁 Drumming & rhythm + reconnecting with collective rhythm and aliveness

🎶 Humming & sound + feeling vibration within the body

🌑 Guided archetypal meditation + meeting The Early Signal within yourself

🔥 Story & conversation + sharing without fixing, advising or comparing

Reflection & ritual + creating space to hear what your body may already know

🤍 Women witnessing women + because some thresholds are easier to cross together

There will be space to move.

Space to be still.

Space to speak.

Space to simply listen.

Your body gets the vote.

You don’t have to participate in everything.

You don’t have to explain yourself.

You don’t have to perform your healing.

You simply come and listen.

Because perhaps the first step isn’t changing your body.

Perhaps it’s meeting her where she is.


🌕 THE FIRST DOORWAY

Each month, The Woman Between Worlds will explore a different archetypal doorway into the changing female experience.

We begin with:

THE EARLY SIGNAL

What is my body trying to tell me?

You don’t need to follow a sequence.

You don’t need to attend every month.

Come to the doorway that calls you.

THIS IS FOR YOU IF…

You’re entering perimenopause.

You’re moving through menopause.

You’re post-menopause and wondering what comes next.

Or you’re simply feeling that you’re standing at the edge of an identity you can no longer quite inhabit.

You may have children.

You may not.

Motherhood is not the qualification for this threshold.

This gathering is about the woman, not her reproductive history.


ELEVEN WOMEN. ONE CIRCLE. ONE SUNSET.

This first Melbourne gathering is intentionally limited to 11 women.

Small enough to feel intimate.

Large enough to create the magic of women witnessing women.

Come exactly as you are.

No experience required.

No expectation to share, dance, move or participate in anything your body says no to.

You are not broken.

You are between worlds.

Come sit with us. 🌅🔥


The Woman Between Worlds began with a photograph.

Taken in 2020, I was 41 + barefoot, standing at Wategos Beach, Byron Bsy. At the time, I didn’t know I was standing at the edge of a threshold.

Looking back now, at 47, I can see it differently.

It was an entry point.

A crossing into a season of life where old identities, expectations and ways of being would begin to fall away + and something deeper would ask to emerge.

The Woman Between Worlds is born from that threshold.

It is a monthly gathering for women navigating the years between who they have been and who they are becoming.

A place to pause. To listen to the body. To gather around the fire. To speak what is rarely spoken. To remember that transition doesn’t mean something has gone wrong.

You are not broken. You are between worlds.
