Standing Up to Menopause —On Stage!
Hey there! I’m Gabriele Sewtz, your stand-up comedian who’s turned menopause into a superpower fueled by punchlines. My mission? To normalize the (peri)menopause conversation, empower other women, and remind everyone that we’re not crazy—we’re just running low on estrogen and high levels of “I’ve had it.” Guys, I can probably help explain where your loved one’s latest death stare came from.
In a world where women’s health gets the attention it deserves (shocking idea, I know), research would actually cover HRT risks, real alternatives, and the groundbreaking discovery that nutrition and lifestyle aren’t just for Instagram influencers. That’s why I’m putting (peri)menopause in the spotlight—on stage, with a mic, and no filter. So buckle up and get ready for a ride through all the different decades of my life to learn my menopause superhero origin story.

Eat Right? or Left?
I’m the salad girl—dressing on the side. In my hometown, seafood reigned supreme, pickled anything goes, and my only vice is German bread (but even that’s whole grain). Despite my healthy lifestyle, my body had other plans during (peri)menopause: Belly Fat and other not-so-fun menopause symptoms like high cholesterol, fatigue, and you should have seen my lackluster hair. Now I am a menopause foodie!
Hormones are stacked like pancakes. And I am no doctor or scientist, just an ordinary woman, but if you take a bite out of a pancake stack, it crumbles the same way your stacked hormones collapse into a hot, syrupy mess when estrogen and progesterone are gone.
During (peri)menopause, my body changed faster than I could keep up with finding new supportive habits. And life didn’t stop while I was trying to figure it out.
Out of my own lived experience, I created the Corafia app, a guided journal for (peri)menopause where your daily check-ins come together in a dashboard, helping you connect the dots between your symptoms and everyday life.
In just a few minutes a day, you can journal in a guided way your symptoms, sleep, emotions, nourishment, movement, and what’s happening in your everyday life. Over time, you have something to look back on and more context for those moments when you find yourself wondering, “What’s going on?”
Less guesswork. Something to go on.
As I coached more women through their menopause transition, I realized that noticing patterns was only the beginning. The next question was always the same: “Now what?”
Women wanted support for how to bring these insights into their daily routines in a realistic, manageable way. That’s how the course Corafia Living came to life, inspired by the women I worked with and the conversations we kept having. Corafia Living is a (peri)menopause wellness course that takes you beyond noticing what’s going on and into what you could do about it.
Cracking the Code on Menopause
You grow up hearing about menopause like it’s a grand event with a date on the calendar—turn 50 and there’s a ribbon cutting. What they don’t mention is perimenopause gets to work for a decade before introducing itself! When things started changing, I kept thinking “I’m not even 50 yet! This can’t be THE change.”
So what did I do? I jumped into action to figure out how I could navigate this menopause thing—and how I could share what I’m learning with everyone else.
You Gotta Work It Out... Literally!
What did this girl do? I ran. A lot. 70 runs, to be exact—despite not being a runner. And guess what? The more I ran, the more weight I gained. So I signed up for a wellness retreat, and was the lamest duck trying to keep up with a kettlebell workout—that’s where I realized weights are the secret weapon against weight for me!
Life Should Be Sweet.
I can’t stop talking about it. Really!
