Events & Community Gatherings

We’re elevating the conversation around midlife, creating authentic community, and connecting women with meaningful resources.

My events bring women together to learn about menopause and women’s health, creating an energizing space for authentic conversation, meaningful connection, and support from trusted experts and brands committed to their well-being.

A Vital Retreat

Midlife Elevated is an intimate luxury retreat for the woman who is ready to reconnect with herself in midlife — physically, emotionally, and deeply.

For the woman who wants real conversations about hormones, health, relationships, identity, and what it means to thrive in this next chapter… while also craving rest, laughter, beautiful meals, movement, connection, and space to breathe.

Hosted in a private Colorado mountain home, this intentionally small-group experience blends luxury retreat energy with meaningful menopause education and facilitated conversations led by Stephanie Traver, WHNP, MSCP — a menopause specialist and founder of Vital Menopause.

This is not a large conference or wellness event. It’s a thoughtfully curated space to feel supported, informed, connected, and cared for alongside other incredible women walking through this season too.

Space will be very limited to keep the experience intimate. Join the priority waitlist for first access to retreat details and early booking.

What Sets Our Retreats Apart

01 / Premium Lodging

Our events prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process.

02 / Expert Facilitation

Led by experienced guides who know how to hold space, encourage participation, and keep things moving with purpose.

03 / Collaborative Energy

Connection is a core part of the process. You’ll learn just as much from the group as from the content itself.

A Look Back at Thrive Summit Colorado 2025

Thrive Summit is an immersive half-day event in Denver, CO, created to elevate, educate, and empower midlife women with real solutions, expert insights, and meaningful community.

Thrive Summit 2025 brought together incredible women for a transformational afternoon focused on perimenopause, menopause, and the vibrant years beyond. Attendees experienced world-class speakers, silent disco workshops, an exclusive screening of The [M] Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause, expert panel discussions, a curated vendor marketplace, immersive wellness experiences, and so much more.

Whether you were seeking clarity about your hormones, support for your symptoms, or simply a space to feel seen, celebrated, and connected, Thrive Summit 2025 delivered an unforgettable experience.

We can’t wait to do it again! Join us for Thrive Summit Colorado 2026 for another afternoon of education, connection, and empowerment designed for women navigating this transformative stage of life.
