Laurie and Dodie didn’t set out to start a movement. They were just two friends in the middle of perimenopause, crying on a porch, confused by their symptoms, and tired of being dismissed. But that one conversation turned into a mission—and Get Shebang was born.
In this heartwarming, hilarious, and deeply honest session, you’ll hear how their personal struggles turned into a thriving community and a subscription box designed to support women through the wild ride of midlife. We talk about real symptoms (like arthritis-like joint pain and emotional rollercoasters), the lack of education around hormones, the power of peer support, and why no one should have to go through this alone.
Whether you’re already in perimenopause or just starting to wonder if something is shifting, this session will make you feel seen, supported, and a little more hopeful.

“When Life Gives You Hormones, Make a Community (and a Subscription Box)”
When Laurie and Dodie met, they clicked instantly. Their real connection formed on Laurie’s porch in 2023 when Dodie unexpectedly broke down crying. In that vulnerable moment, Laurie shared her perimenopause struggles and how bio-identical HRT transformed her life. Following Laurie’s advice, Dodie found relief too.
By 2024, Dodie approached Laurie with a vision—not just a design business website, but an online community supporting women through hormone changes and perimenopause, born from their shared experiences and the glaring lack of resources.
Their vulnerable conversation blossomed into a thriving community with a monthly subscription box delivering carefully selected products and educational materials to make the hormone journey manageable.
Their message is simple: you’re not alone. Their growing social media presence amplifies their advocacy for women’s health issues too long unspoken.
With open hearts and determination, Laurie and Dodie continue building a loving space where no woman walks alone—because when women support women, even hormone hurricanes become navigable together.
