Rooted & Rising

A woodland retreat co-facilitated by Emily Edwards (withINsight Coaching) and Caroline Milne (Unmenopaused) where grounding meets growth and where will leave restored and ready to rise into your own power.


Overview

A retreat for Autistic and/or ADHD folks who menstruate that are preparing for, or in their menopausal years. You do not need a diagnosis to attend; if you suspect you are neurodivergent or self-identify we welcome you to join us.

Together we’ll explore the unique challenges of being neurodivergent during hormonal changes, while building clarity, understanding, and connection. This is a space for you to gather, ground, grow and strengthen your skills for self-advocacy.

Through gentle facilitated group coaching, nature connection, and restorative practices, Rooted & Rising invites you to step away from the noise of daily life and return to yourself: seen, supported, and stronger.


What to Expect

  • Woodland setting; nature connection to support your nervous system
  • Space to pause, reflect, and share experiences with others who get it
  • Facilitated activities and group coaching for clarity, self-understanding and empowerment
  • Time outdoors, grounding practices and restorative breaks
  • Practical tools to help you advocate for yourself in everyday life


Who It’s For

Autistic and/or ADHD women who are:

  • Pre-menopausal — wanting information and empowerment for what to expect
  • In perimenopause — seeking support to navigate changing symptoms and experiences
  • Post-menopause — still experiencing symptoms, or wishing to share knowledge and wisdom with others


Also for:

  • Anyone wanting to better understand the intersection of hormones and neurodivergence
  • Those looking for knowledge, community, and restorative activities in a woodland setting


What You’ll Take Away

  • Clarity about your own experience
  • Connection with others who share similar challenges
  • Tools for self-advocacy and everyday wellbeing
  • A sense of grounding and renewed energy
