Women's Circle:
Menopause & MidlifeWe are in an epidemic of loneliness.
So many of us are yearning for deep communion. For safe spaces where we can be our glorious and messy selves.
Where we can lovingly explore our complexities, hear the stories of others
going through similar experiences, and realize that we are not alone.
Menopause & Midlife
Thursdays 9:15-10:30am PT | Virtual Group Coaching
New Members Welcome – Open Enrollment
Menopause / Perimenopause is a significant transformation of body and identity that doesn’t get talked about enough. This virtual women’s circle is not about treatments or physical support but about the emotional, psychological, and spiritual transitions that accompany midlife: loss of identity, loss of fertility, mood swings, and leaning into what’s next.
Join Dr. Deborah Zucker, as she facilitates group coaching sessions for women going through midlife and all that comes with this transformative time.
Dr. Deborah creates welcoming spaces to explore
intense challenges and disorienting transitions.
She does this while holding the possibility of profound personal transformation, resilient well-being, and embodied compassion, allowing clients to discover an authentic path to greater alignment.
Groups are places for us to come alive.
They are a place for us to connect, to see and be seen, and to hold each other during these difficult phases of life.
We are relational creatures. We need community.
Women’s Circles offer the deep intimacy of a community.
They are a safe space to explore, heal, and discover what’s next in your life.
How it Works
- Be guided in a centering meditation upon arrival, supporting you in connecting with a grounded, open presence.
- Engage in inquiry processes, practices and reflections.
- Share and hear stories, challenges, celebrations, and insights with the other women in your circle.
- Receive direct coaching, support, & reflection from Dr. Deborah.
Know that you can accomplish radically positive shifts with fewer tears and less effort than you think.
If you’re curious about how group coaching can support you,
schedule your free, 20-minute discovery consultation.
We’ll explore what’s present in your life and which group could be the best fit for you.

Hello and Welcome!
Gathering and facilitating groups of women going through transitional times in their lives is the center of my passion and essence. I’m here to cultivate a community for women to explore what is present in their lives, who they are, what they need, what brings them more vitality, and how they want to invest their life energy so they get the greatest returns.
When we come together, healing happens exponentially. As members of the group bring forward their challenges and share their stories, communal learning takes place allowing us to explore and discover the next steps. We witness each other, yet somehow see ourselves with more clarity, knowing our challenges aren’t as isolating as we thought and that we are in fact, deeply supported.
I’ve experienced deep and transformative healing by being a part of groups. I’ve been seen and held, let down my guard, and showed my messy, wounded, and complex self. Being a part of healing groups was a pivotal part of my life, and I’m now dedicated to creating these healing spaces for others.
When women are shifting from one stage to another, they often bump up against deep identity issues and existentialism.
I help women move from who they have been to who they are becoming. Group coaching can be a vital part of that healing journey.
I love helping women step into everything they are and live with more wonder, energy, and ease. It’s my greatest passion to share this journey towards profound well-being with you.
