About the Event
Pause Please is not your typical women’s health event.
It’s a curated, elevated wellness experience designed for women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s who are navigating changes in their bodies — and want real answers, real support, and a community that gets it.
This one-day conference brings together leading medical experts, wellness professionals, and powerful voices in midlife advocacy to educate, affirm, and empower women through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.
We’re creating the room we wish we had when our hormones, cycles, and confidence started to shift — with no fluff, no shame, and no being dismissed by outdated conversations.

Meet Your Speaker, Jess Buchan
Jess Buchan - Body Bliss By Jess
Functional Nutrition & Empowerment Specialist
Meet Jess, a Holistic Health Coach certified by the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.

With flexibility and ease, she lost 45 pounds and has helped hundreds of women do the same.
Jess blends functional nutrition, mindset mastery, and practical habit-building to create personalized plans that honor each woman’s unique body cycles.
She teaches real self-care rituals (beyond mimosas and bubble baths), guides clients through discomfort to unlock lasting change, and replaces scarcity thinking with an abundant mindset.
Passionate about empowering women to feel confident in their own skin, reduce overwhelm, and live aligned with their bodies, Jess delivers transformative coaching that bridges health and mindset. At Pause Please, she’s here to help you embrace your power—because when you change how you think, you change how you live.
