SUMMARY:Not Just Hot Flashes: What to Know about Menopause and Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:Date: Session 1 June 3\, 2026\, from Noon -1:30 p.m. \nSix consecutive weekly follow up sessions (Noon – 1 p.m. each session): \nSession 1: June 10\, 2026 \nSession 2: June 17\, 2026 \nSession 3: June 24\, 2026 \nSession 4: July 1\, 2026 \nSession 5: July 8\, 2026 \nSession 6: July 15\, 2026  \nLocation: Online via Zoom. \nEligible for 7.5 virtual Continuing Education credits. \nPlease note: Full CE credit requires attendance at all seven sessions.  \nOnce a taboo subject\, the public conversation about menopause has opened up in recent years—but the mental health aspects remain undiscussed. This presentation is designed for peer workers\, community health workers\, recovery coaches\, or anyone who provides support to women and people ages 35 – 55. We will learn about the vital importance of person-centered\, gender-inclusive menopause support tailored to the unique needs of this critical phase of life.

After experiencing an extremely difficult onset of menopause in her early forties\, and enormous challenges accessing appropriate care\, Leah became committed to sharing with the community what she has learned on the intersection between menopause and mental health. Leah is also a certified Menopause Educator with the Menopause Experts’ Group (MEG). She has presented on menopause and psychosis at the World Hearing Voices Congress and ISPS-US and has been a guest on the Depth Work Podcast.

SUMMARY:The Being\, Leading Workshop Series with Dr. Jonathan P. Edwards
DESCRIPTION:A Four-Part Framework for Transforming Lived Experience into Leadership Capital \nThis four-part virtual series will walk learners through career path planning trajectory from line-level functions to utilizing a leadership lens. Because it may be difficult for everyone to attend all four sessions\, each workshop is designed to stand on its own and offer practical\, actionable takeaways. To support continuity\, every session will begin with a brief review of key concepts and definitions from earlier sessions. \nWorkshop Dates (Noon – 1:30 p.m. each session): \nSession 1: June 2nd \nSession 2: June 9th \nSession 3: June 16\, 2026 \nSession 4: June 30\, 2026 \n  \nParticipants are eligible for 6 virtual Continuing Education (CE) credits. \nPlease note: Full CE credit requires attendance at all four sessions.  \nIntroduction: The Alchemy of Peer Leadership \nIn the world of geology\, a gemstone is not created in a vacuum; it is the result of extreme pressure\, heat\, and time. Similarly\, the wisdom held by peer specialists is forged in the pressures of lived experience with mental health and substance use challenges. Historically\, these experiences were viewed by systems as flaws or liabilities. The Being\, Leading Workshop Series operates on a different premise: that these experiences are\, in fact\, the raw gems of a unique and powerful leadership capacity. \nThe Case for Peer Leadership \nPeer and Leader have been viewed as disparately separate identities; peers seeking career advancement and professional development were told they could be one or the other. However\, the most effective leaders in history-from grassroots activists to modern CEOs-succeed because they possess similar qualities that experienced peer supporters have already cultivated: resilience\, empathy\, and the determination to find solutions when possibilities seem narrow. Being\, Leading provides an empowering framework within which peer specialists recognize inherent value in the gem of lived experience- the highest form of leadership material. When peers align their values and experiences with leadership theories\, they aren’t just joining the table; they are redesigning it. \n  \nSession 1: Finding the Gem \nFocus: Asset Mapping & Radical Self-Awareness \nKey Message: Before leading others\, you must identify the raw material of your own resilience. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nIdentify three personal assets derived directly from recovery.\n\n\nReframe a perceived liability as a unique leadership strength.\n\n\nDevelop an empowerment statement that bridges self-awareness to purposeful action.\n\nKey Lesson: Your history isn’t a hurdle; it’s the resource. The gem is the wisdom you gained while navigating the dark. \nSession 2: Defining the Gem \nFocus: Developing Leadership Identity & Values \nKey Message: This session moves from the idea of what you’ve been through to who you are as a leader. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nIdentify core values of leadership that are important to you.\n\n\nCreate a personal leadership mission statement.\n\n\nDistinguish between the role of peer support to the influence of peer leadership.\n\nKey Lesson: Leadership is an identity\, not a job title. Defining your core values ensures your gem doesn’t change shape based on whose company you’re in. \nSession 3: Cultivating the Gem \nFocus: Boundary Setting\, Sustainability\, and Emotional Intelligence \nKey Message: A gem must be protected to maintain its value. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDemonstrate power-with vs. power-over leadership styles.\n\n\nIdentify personal energy leaks that lead to burnout.\n\n\nDescribe one actionable self-care strategy to counter burnout.\n\nKey Lesson: You cannot lead from an empty vessel. Cultivation is the practice of self-care as a professional responsibility\, not a luxury. \nSession 4: Polishing the Gem \nFocus: Strategic Communication & Systems Advocacy \nKey Message: This is where the internal work meets the external world. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nTranslate lived experience into professional language.\n\n\nDevelop an itemized leadership vision statement.\n\n\nCreate a strategy quadrant that diagrams your personal four-step process.\n\nKey Lesson: Polishing is the process of reducing excess layers so the light can shine through. It’s about illuminating your passion and leading authentically. \nContent: \nAgenda\, slides\, PDF worksheets will be available in the virtual gallery to registered participants. \n  \nTrainer: \nDr. Jonathan P. Edwards is a social scientist\, public health professional\, Licensed Clinical Social Worker\, Certified Peer Specialist\, Certified Personal Medicine Coach\, and serves on the faculty of Columbia University School of Social Work and as a clinical instructor at Yale School of Medicine Program for Recovery and Community Health (PRCH). He led the largest peer support workforce within the New York City Hospital system and significantly contributed to the development of the peer support workforce. Dr. Edwards has published research on job satisfaction and supervision practices; contributed to the development of National Practice Guidelines for Peer Support Specialists and Supervisors; presented research and practice nationally and internationally; served on a technical expert panel to develop National Model Standards for Peer Support Certification\, as well as a national recovery research agenda. He has received several awards and has co-authored numerous peer-reviewed articles\, book chapters\, and co-edited the recently published “What It Takes: Wisdom from Peer Support Specialists and Supervisors.”   \n  \nRegistration: Please register below (on this site) using a credit or debit card\, which is the quickest way to confirm your attendance. \nONLY if you need to pay by check\, please complete this form (click here) and email it to: registration@mipeers.org.
