A Story of Resilience and Determination!

It all started in 2013 when, out of her own need, Gwen Harris formed the Menopause Support Group on Facebook.  The group organically grew to 11,000 members by 2018. Intending to be trendsetters in starting the conversation about menopause, Good Morning America featured the group on their show.  As a wellness coach for women in transition, Tina McDermott reached out to join Gwen on her mission. 

The Menopause Support Group now spans the globe to well over 120,000 members in 120 countries. Based on our research and recognizing the critical needs that women face during this transition, Menowave was born. 

Menowave is an online integrated care model for women in menopause. Our care providers offer coaching and support to women all around the world facing mental, physical, and emotional symptoms of menopause. We listen closely to your story knowing every woman is unique. Our FREE Menopause Assessment allows our care providers to map out a personalized care model specific to your individual needs. 

We know that women in menopause overwhelmingly want to be more active during this life stage. We provide an important opportunity for a reset and to reframe what you feel you’ve lost while emerging renewed to enjoy essential good health and well-being. Yesterday was heavy, so put it down.

Questions we asked Gwen:

Please share the pain points of your story—what made this situation or season as challenging as it was for you?
Keeping my eye on the vision despite the heavy obstacles I needed to overcome. 

What led up to the pivotal moment of change or breakthrough? 
Witnessing the life-changing impact my work was having on women around the world. 

What were the lessons you learned, the hope gained or the theme attained?
I learned to see the real value in my work and reframe how I perceived things. 

What would you say is different about you today in the way you perceive or process that situation, or yourself?
Without a shadow of a doubt, this has been a divinely inspired journey for me. It’s not about me at all. It’s been about my willingness to be the vehicle in carrying forth the vision.
