I feel like women in perimenopause are constantly being told about all the things we should be doing.

Eat more protein.
Lift weights.
Walk more.
Sleep better.
Manage stress.
Take this supplement.
Try this workout.

Honestly… it can start to feel like a full-time job. 😅

So I’m starting something new called 5 Minute Wins.

Every week, I’m going to share one small thing you can do in five minutes or less to support yourself through perimenopause and midlife.

Nothing complicated. Nothing that requires buying something or completely changing your life.

Just small things that can actually fit into your day.

This week’s 5 Minute Win is simple:

Take a 5-minute walk after a meal.

It doesn’t have to be fast. It doesn’t have to count as your workout for the day. Just move your body for five minutes after breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

And while you’re out there, look around. Notice something. Take a breath.

Five minutes might not seem like much, but small things add up.

👇 Which one would be easiest for you: a walk after breakfast, lunch, or dinner?

I’d love to know.

Also, many of the things I’ll be sharing in these 5 Minute Wins are things we’ll explore more deeply in my upcoming Menopause Wellness Workshop Series.

We’re starting September 20 with Strong Bones, Strong Muscles, and I’m really excited about this one. We’ll be talking about how strength training, mobility, balance, and nutrition all work together to support us as we move through midlife.

If you’ve been looking for a space to learn, move, ask questions, and connect with other women who are going through this season too, I’d love to have you there.

Send me a message if you want the details!

Midlife isn’t the time to abandon your body because it doesn’t feel the way it used to.

It’s a time to learn what it needs now.

What if once a month, you had two hours to pause, learn, move, connect, and leave feeling a little more supported in your body?

I created this monthly Menopause Wellness Workshop Series for exactly that.

Each month we’ll explore a different piece of midlife wellness—with practical tools you can actually take home with you.

🍂SEPTEMBER 20 — Strong Bones, Strong Muscles
Strength training, mobility, balance + nutrition to support healthy muscles and bones.

🍁OCTOBER 18 — Find Your Calm
Understand how hormonal changes can influence your nervous system and learn simple practices to help you regulate stress and restore balance.

🦃NOVEMBER 15 — Rediscover Joy
Reconnect with movement, activities and experiences that make you feel energized and alive.

🌲DECEMBER 20 — Rest, Reflect & Restore
A chance to slow down, reflect and give yourself permission to rest as the year comes to a close.

✨ JANUARY 17 — Flourish in Midlife
Begin the new year with intention and create a personalized wellness plan for the season ahead.

Third Sundays | 12–2 PM

This series is for women in midlife wherever you are in your menopause journey—whether you’re noticing your first changes, deep in the transition, or simply wanting to feel stronger, calmer and more connected to yourself.

You don’t need to have everything figured out.

You might just need a community and a little support.

Join me at Jackie Dawson monthly through January, or pop in for one month that works for you.

Beautiful August Weekend!!

Hey. Are you guys mad at me? 🙃🙃🙃

Sadly, I can’t make it to this one, but maybe you can…..❤️

Ever wonder if you’re actually “doing the pose right”?

Or why a pose feels completely different in your body than it seems to for someone else?

This workshop Functional Alignment & Assists Workshop is about understanding your body, your movement, and what alignment can look like for YOU.

No perfect poses. No one-size-fits-all alignment.
Just more confidence, curiosity + connection to your own body. 🤍

You do NOT have to be a yoga teacher to come.

NEXT weekend!
