About the event
Get Your Groove Back: Mental Health Panel Discussion
This event is open to the public. The registration fee is $10 at the door or in advance.
We are meeting at Flying Pig Improv at 3203 E. Douglas Ave. from 6 to 8 PM.
Feeling physically and mentally rundown takes the pep from our step, leaving us with a sense of loss and wondering who we are. Rather than stay caught in that rut, we can act to recapture the magical wonder of being alive. Join us to discuss how we can reignite our passion and creativity, add a little oomph to overlooked parts of our lives, and find our new groove.

Lil is now on a mission to transform beliefs, experiences, and options around menopause and help women connect with and fulfill our deepest needs, dreams, and destinies during our midlife and beyond AND experience that zest Ms. Mead was talking about!
