support wise women
The louder we launch, the faster the world hears what it forgot: women’s wisdom leads the way.
Menopause made us the humans that we are. Post-menopausal females shaped our communities, our survival, and our ability to lead with care, vision, and long-range wisdom. We need to remember this, especially now—and reclaim the potential of women’s leadership.
That’s what Wise Women – Why Menopause Matters is here to do.
This feature documentary, narrated by Margaret Cho and produced by Oscar-winner Jonathan Sanger, uncovers new evolutionary science that turns everything we’ve been taught about menopause on its head and shows that women, especially mature women, should run the world.
The film reveals how post-reproductive women were so vital to evolution—they led it. They were the steady hands that sparked fire, organized care, and grew the brains that made us human.
Right now, the film is in its final stage of completion, with release set for September 2025. But launching a message this important—that older women were evolution’s original leaders—means we need to make noise.
We’re up against algorithms, outdated narratives, and the quiet resistance that usually greets change.
That’s why we’re asking for your support today:
