Trauma Bonds and Patterns of Attraction: Why Some Relationships Hurt So Much to Leave

This session helps make sense of relationship patterns that feel addictive, intense, or impossible to walk away from. Dr. Tracy King will explain how trauma bonds are formed, why they’re so compelling, and how women with ADHD or trauma histories can get caught in cycles of over-functioning, self-abandonment, or idealising unavailable partners. You’ll leave with insight into your nervous system’s role in attraction, and what it takes to change these patterns from the inside out.

When Emotions Feel Too Much: ADHD, Trauma, and Emotional Regulation

Emotional intensity isn't a flaw, it's information. This session explores why so many women feel either emotionally flooded or shut down, and how trauma and ADHD both shape this experience. Dr. Tracy King breaks down what emotional regulation actually means and how to build capacity to feel without overwhelm. This is a must-attend if you've ever felt “too much” or not enough, and want to understand your emotional world with more clarity and compassion.

From Corporate to Creating Your Own Path: Rethinking success and designing work that fits your life

Many women reach a point in their careers where something begins to shift. On paper everything may look successful, but internally there can be a growing sense that the traditional path no longer fits the life you want to live.

In this conversation, Elevelle founder Jenny Fairhurst speaks with Suzy Sanders, founder of Alchemy VA, about her journey from corporate life to building a successful virtual assistant business that has since grown into a franchised model.

Together they explore the moment many women experience when success stops feeling aligned, the identity shift that can come with leaving corporate structures, and what it really takes to design work that supports your life rather than competing with it.

Living with Endometriosis: Understanding, Navigating and Advocating for Yourself

Endometriosis affects around 1 in 10 women and people assigned female at birth, yet diagnosis can take an average of 7–10 years. Many are told their pain is “normal” long before they are taken seriously.

In this Endometriosis Awareness Month session, Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist Dr Laura Bangs joins endometriosis coach Christianne Carrick for a grounded, practical conversation that combines clinical clarity with lived experience.

From Survival Mode to Safety: Healing Trauma in the Body

This session explores how trauma lives in the body and how healing begins not with insight, but with regulation. Dr. Tracy King will explain why many women remain in chronic stress or shutdown without realising it, and how trauma-related patterns like dissociation, emotional flooding, or fatigue are deeply intelligent. You'll leave with new insight into your own survival strategies and what begins to change when the nervous system feels safe.

Menopause, ADHD, Trauma: When Hormones Hijack the Body

Menopause is not just a hormonal shift; it's a neurological one. In this session, Dr. Tracy King unpacks why anxiety, ADHD symptoms, emotional sensitivity, and burnout often intensify in midlife. You'll gain language for what's happening in your body, understand why old strategies stop working, and explore how to work with your nervous system rather than against it during this transition.

Living with PMDD: Understanding, Managing and Advocating for Yourself

Living with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) can feel isolating, confusing and overwhelming, particularly when symptoms disrupt work, relationships, self-esteem and everyday functioning.

This discussion brings together lived experience and clinical navigation to create a grounded, validating space to explore what PMDD actually looks like in real life, and how women can better understand, manage and advocate for themselves while living with it.

Why Women’s Health Begins with the Nervous System

This session offers a powerful introduction to how the nervous system shapes women’s mental health, stress responses, and emotional patterns. Dr Tracy King will explore why so many women live in a state of quiet vigilance, and why traits like burnout, anxiety, and people-pleasing are often adaptive responses, not flaws. Expect a grounding, reassuring space that centres regulation over self-correction. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of nervous system states and at least one embodied practice to help you return to calm.
