WE ARE
Menopausitive!
At Launch Your Pause we believe menopause isn't a pause, it's a launch pad. We're rewriting the narrative by bringing women together to share, connect, and step into the power of this next chapter.
Our Mission
We create welcoming spaces where women gain knowledge, build community, and find the confidence to navigate menopause on their own terms.
Our Vision
We envision a future where menopause is celebrated as a powerful life transition and every woman is honored and supported at every stage.

Our Story
The First Launch
In 2017 we had both been wandering alone through the perimenopause wilderness for years. Kate made up a ritual to mark this passage with her close friends. They all said no thanks, except for Laura. She said let’s build this! Then a Great Horned Owl spoke to them.
