Expanding access to heart-health care for women too often unseen.

Rooted in community, we reclaim heart health as a collective practice, centering the experiences of Black women in midlife.

THE REALITY

The ambitious woman arrives at midlife into a beautiful storm.

The menopause transition collides with the load of caregiving and leading, while research, medicine, and the workplace look away. Left unattended, it becomes chronic stress, anxiety, depression, and rising heart risk, even as heart disease remains the leading cause of death for women.

Black women carry some of the highest heart risk, yet remain largely absent from research. The chronic stress of racism and inequity wears on the body over time, what researchers call weathering, accelerating risk precisely where access to care is lowest.

our work

We work alongside her, and we go where she already is.

We meet women where they are, joining heart-health education with contemplative practice, upstream, before risk becomes disease.

• Community practice — Education, learning circles, and gatherings.

• Access for all — Supported spaces, so cost is not a barrier to care or prevention.

• Learning together — Honoring what women know about their own bodies
