The Wisewoman Way
Menopause as a Path to Power and Wisdom
 A Transformational 8-Month Journey for Menopausal Women Â
Starts Saturday 11th April 2026 at The Storey, Lancaster
Menopause is not the end.
It is the beginning of the most powerful chapter of our lives!
For too long we’ve been sold a story of decline: hot flushes, night sweats, mood swings, irrelevance and invisibility.
But beneath the symptoms lies a much deeper truth: menopause is an initiation.
A sacred threshold into our true sovereignty, freedom, and creative power.
If you’ve been struggling and are seeking guidance through this challenging transition, you are not alone.
The Wisewoman Way can help.
We’ve Been Sold a Lie!
Most of what we hear about menopause focuses on the surface level physical symptoms.
Given these are uncomfortable and painful, it's natural that our immediate questions focus on...
-How do I "get rid" of my symptoms?
-How do I “fix” what’s broken?
-How do I stop getting older and stay young?
But what if the symptoms were actually leading us to a whole new version of ourselves?
What if we trusted the brilliance of Nature's intentions and opened our minds to a deeper meaning? What questions might we then ask?...
-Who am I becoming?
-What burdens is it time to lay down?
-What is my purpose now and what opportunities are being opened up to me?
-What meaning can I find in and beyond my menopause transition?Â
The truth is that Menopause is an initiation!
-It is a portal into our true power and creative potential.
-It's the passage into our freedom and wisdom years.
-It can be the best chapter of our lives yet if we choose to embrace it...
Imagine a Different Story…
What if we embraced menopause not as an ending, but as a rite of passage?
As the portal into a kind of power we have only been able to dream of up till now?
How might life be if we were to fully...
-Shed the old roles and expectations that hold us back?
-Reclaim and express our voices, our freedom, our creativity in meaningful ways?
-Live with our inner Wisewoman in the driving seat — the Elder, Seer, Healer, and Wisdom-keeper?
-Emerge clear, confident and ready to live the second half of our life with true spiritual purpose?
This is what The Wisewoman Way makes possible.
Introducing...
The Wisewoman Way
Menopause as a Path to Power and Wisdom
Â
An 8-month programme designed to help you reclaim menopause as a sacred initiation and support you through the emotional and spiritual highs and lows so that you can step into your menopausal chapter with confidence and clarity.
Â
The programme weaves together:
-Archetypal wisdom and rites of passage work.
-Healing practices for body, mind, and spirit.
-A supportive circle of 12 women walking the same path.
 This isn’t about symptom management.
It’s about transformation.
The Wisewoman Way is a unique 8-month journey designed to help you navigate the powerful yet turbulent time of peri-menopause or menopause and to set yourself up for a positive and powerful menopause chapter.Â
Stepping through this portal of power requires significant and often uncomfortable change on every level - mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually. Having support along the way is vital.
To become our most intuitive, creative and wise Selves, we are called to face unresolved shadows; to let go of old roles and identities, to grieve what’s been lost or never lived, to face our own mortality, and to break-free of the youth-centric conditioning that has up till now directed our lives.
Menopause is an important step on our "journey of becoming" and The Wisewoman Way will support you in shedding the old skins so that you can create a new and exciting future for yourself for years to come.
Over the course of the 8-month journey, you'll receive a unique map, toolkit, and support for navigating your menopause transition...

The Journey Roadmap....
The menopause transition is most definitely a journey, one of twists and turns as we spiral in and out and up and down! It's a journey that can take time and for some women might last up to 10 years. It requires us to slow down and begin to walk through our lives differently as we navigate the profound transformation it calls for.
Whilst it's easy for us to focus on the physical symptoms, we are missing the point if we don't also address the mental, emotional and spiritual changes that are a fundamental, but are less well understood in our modern world. But it's here that we find the most profound opportunities for a magical menopause chapter.
And it's messy! So The Wisewoman Way is laid out as a map. Not for a linear journey from A-B, but of a landscape with places to visit that will support our inner transition. Some places we may only need visit once, but others we may be called to return to. Some places we may not need to stay in for long, others may require us to visit for longer. There is no right or wrong and you get to decide your own route.Â
Whilst each of us will experience it differently, any journey into the unknown requires important preparations, some deep breaths and a brave heart! We'll begin by understanding menopause as the powerful rite of passage it is, rather than the ending our culture would have us believe. We'll learn about the opportunities it offers and bust the cultural myths designed to hold us back and disconnect us from the important contributions we are here to make.
Then we'll spend a month visiting one of six global Wisewomen archetypes and spend time exploring the questions and invitations they offers us. There will be things we need to let go of, to grieve and to shed. There will be times we need to sit in the liminal space of not-knowing. We'll be called to get serious about our spiritual beliefs and to trust our own knowing and intuition. We be required to reclaim our essence and to remember our gifts. At times we'll need to dig deep.Â
The way out is through as the saying goes, and through this journey the Wisewomen will show you how to transform the mayhem and madness of peri-menopause into a truly magical and meaningful menopausal life. And whilst you'll have your own personal experience, you won't feel alone. Support is available and you'll be walking the path with other women going through the same transition.

It's Great to Meet You...
I'm Cali White
I am a psychotherapist, ancestral healing practitioner, group facilitator, and perpetual student!
My peri-menopause came in 2016 when I was 44. I wasn't expecting it so soon! It crept up on me and then took me out - big time! With no husband, kids or job I had the luxury to be able to really embrace and navigate it consciously. For 15 months I rode the rollercoaster through the madness and mayhem...my body crashed, so many emotions came up, the ancestors came flooding in, my spiritual intuition came online...and then I reached the magic!
To mark and begin my menopausal chapter with strong intentions, I travelled the UK/Ireland in my campervan on a 13 moon pilgrimage. A life-changing experience which gave me my true purpose. So far, this menopause chapter is proving to be the best chapter of my life and I'd love for it to be the best chapter for every woman! We've been lied to so deeply about it and for good reason. It really is a powerful time. I want to share what I learned and help other women navigate menopause as the sacred change that it is.
The Wisewoman Way is a weaving of what I learned on my own journey combined with my psychotherapeutic and healing arts training. Drawing from the Wisewoman archetype in a unique and creative way, it is designed to support you through the emotional highs and lows, and provide the tools and understanding that will set you up for a magical menopause chapter.Â
I hope you're called! I'd be honoured to guide you on your sacred journey.
Testimonials from women who have taken the journey before...
STF
"No matter where you are in your menopausal journey, there will be something valuable in this course for you. Cali weaves the most incredible, empowering and magical journey through the various Wisewomen archetypes, using powerful journeying, soul-searching journal prompts and wonderful ritual suggestions. I felt safe and held throughout, as I delved into some truly dark and traumatic places, but some truly enlightening and life-affirming ones too. This really is a course where you get out as much as you're willing to put in, but every month was an absolute joy and I feel like I shared in something incredibly special."

The experience of this journey has been a lasting gift which will continue to ripple out through my life. This journey has not only changed how I see myself, its changed how others see and treat me and how I show up in the world. With more love and power than I ever thought possible.”
