Transitions Community Compass series - September 2023

Karen Abi-Karam will share her experience as a Celebrant who creates and conducts ceremonies to mark life transitions. In addition to her professional experience, she will offer a personal perspective of the transitions she has (and hasn’t) marked with ceremony. She will then discuss how both professional and personal experiences intersect with her ongoing PhD literature review, as she investigates the impact and value of ceremony and ritual on the transition between menarche (first menstrual period) and menopause (last menstrual period).
