Welcome! I’m Jessika Fruchter, LMFT — a therapist specializing in supporting women navigating perimenopause and all things midlife with heart, wisdom, and care.
We Were Made For This is a space for honest conversation, healing, and empowerment. This newsletter is designed to guide you through the often confusing and overlooked transitions of perimenopause and midlife — mind, body, and spirit.
What you’ll find here:
The Perimenopause Transition
Deep dives into the physical, emotional, and mental shifts of perimenopause. You’ll find clear explanations, myth-busting, and reframing this natural phase as a powerful rite of passage.
All Things Midlife
Explorations of the bigger midlife experience — identity, relationships, career, and the cultural stories we tell ourselves. It’s about embracing rebirth, resilience, and redefining what midlife means to you.
Mind-Body-Spirit Practices
Tools and practices to nurture your whole self. From rituals and journaling prompts to somatic healing and spiritual insights, this section supports your journey toward balance and vitality.
Why this matters
Perimenopause and midlife are often misunderstood or dismissed. Many women feel isolated, confused, or overwhelmed. Here, you’re seen, heard, and supported.
Together, we reclaim these transitions as essential, transformative parts of our lives — ones that call us to fierceness, self-compassion, and community.
