The Balance Point: Inclusive Wellness

04/15/2026

Something I’m really excited about is coming up on May 31st. 🌸
Partners Detroit is hosting Across the Generations — a morning of real conversation about women’s health, designed for mothers, daughters, and sisters to attend together. We’re talking menopause, sexual health, pelvic floor health, and what Jewish values have to say about all of it.
I’ll be speaking alongside a sexual health therapist, a pelvic floor PT, and a Masters candidate in Medical Bioethics and Halacha. It’s a panel I’m genuinely proud to be part of.
Bring your mom. Bring your daughter. Bring your sister. These are the conversations that change things.
🗓 May 31 | 10am–12pm
📍 Platform 18, Royal Oak
🥂 Brunch included
🎟 Early bird $36 through May 1

Meet Dr. Amy Brode, DO — Urologist & Holistic Concierge Menopause Specialist
I’ll be honest with you — I went through perimenopause myself while building this specialty. Joint pain, sleep changes, mood shifts I didn’t connect to hormones at all. That personal experience, combined with my background as a urologist, is why I care so much about this work. I’ll be talking about what’s actually happening hormonally and what your real options are. No fear, no fluff.
