Invite Dr. Gigi Burke to Speak
Dr. Gigi Burke is a Wellbeing Practitioner who works with Black and Brown women living with the ongoing bodily and relational changes associated with perimenopause, menopause, and midlife. Her work attends to what is often carried quietly as these changes reshape daily life and identity.
Gigi contributes to conversations where people want a more honest, grounded understanding of what it means to live and work within ongoing change. She offers language and perspective that help people stay close to what they are noticing, without rushing to explain, fix, or resolve it.
She is especially interested in spaces that value reflection and shared understanding over performance or optimization. Her presence supports orientation and discernment rather than instruction, intervention, or prescribed outcomes.
Gigi also holds a long-standing curiosity about how nourishing environments might be created for humans living and working beyond Earth. She carries this interest as part of how she thinks about human wellbeing in unfamiliar or shifting conditions, and what that can teach us about how we support one another here on Earth.
Here's Her Signature Talks
What You Feel Is Real: Honoring Emotion in Perimenopause, Menopause, and Midlife
This talk centers the emotional landscape of this season. The feelings that rise quietly. The ones that are often pushed aside. The ones many women have never been given language for.
Gigi speaks to the emotional realities of perimenopause and menopause, with particular attention to the experiences of Black and Brown women who are frequently expected to hold everything together without space for their inner lives. She offers a way to understand emotion not as something to manage or correct, but as something real, meaningful, and deeply human.
Audiences get to leave with a sense of recognition, relief, and permission to feel what they feel without apology.
Finding Yourself Again in a Changing Body and Changing Mind
This talk explores the physical and cognitive shifts that often accompany perimenopause and menopause. Changes in energy, focus, memory, mood, and the way one experiences themselves from the inside out.
Gigi offers a grounded, non clinical approach to understanding what happens when the body and mind begin moving differently than they once did. She speaks honestly about how disorienting these changes can be, especially for women who have spent years overriding their own needs.
Audiences leave with clearer language, greater understanding, and reassurance that these shifts are real and worthy of care and attention.
Short Reflections From Past Audiences
"Dr. Burke, thank you so much for your insights and excellent presentation! We learned a great deal from you about why we need to take care of ourselves."
"Thank you for presenting and sharing your insights. You were great!"
"THANK YOU for acting as a guest speaker at the EWB-Atlanta Chapter meeting. I greatly enjoyed your presentation and teaching style."
"I was most struck by the biological and physiological intelligence and explanations in your presentation. I was fascinated by how much you knew and communicated. The reality of the information you presented is helpful to me as I try and help others be more emotionally intelligent too many people that grew up thinking that emotions have no place in the working world."
