Welcome to Your Next Act.
Welcome to Your Next Act.
Mentorship with Dr. Kristin Markell
“I walked in feeling defeated. Now I feel confident and like myself again.”
For women in midlife who are done shrinking, and ready to expand into their vitality, pleasure and power.
Why work with me
I’m a double board-certified OB/GYN, and I’m a woman in midlife too.
I’ve spent my career caring for women’s bodies, and I own a hormonal health clinic where I see every day what happens when a woman finally gets real answers. But I also know that hormones are only part of the story. The rest lives in your nervous system, your boundaries, your pleasure and your permission to take up space.
So I bring both: the science of a physician and the embodied, feminine practices that helped me come home to myself. You get a doctor who understands your labs and a guide who understands your longing.
DOUBLE BOARD-CERTIFIED OB/GYN · HORMONE EXPERT · EMBODIMENT COACH
This isn’t about quick fixes.
It’s about coming home to your body, and building a life so aligned and alive it feels like magic.
Maybe you’re in perimenopause and your body suddenly feels like a stranger. Maybe you’re burned out from being the capable one, the good girl, the one who holds it all together. Or maybe you’re simply done dimming yourself to keep everyone else comfortable.
Private mentorship is a partnership. I bring my training as a double board-certified physician together with nervous system restoration, embodiment and a little wellbeing magic, so you feel at home in your body and at ease in your life.
What changes when we work together
*
What changes when we work together *
You go from feeling defeated to feeling like yourself again, in your body, your mind and your overall wellbeing
You finally understand what hormones are doing to your body, your mood and your mind, and your body stops feeling like a stranger
You have a personalized plan for the hard parts: poor sleep, hot flashes, brain fog, energy, stress and mood swings
You know how to eat, move and rest for your changing hormones, instead of fighting them
You walk into your doctor’s office knowing what to ask for, and you stop being dismissed
Desire and pleasure come back, on your terms
You feel confident in your body again, and at home in your own skin.
Every small win gets noticed and celebrated, whether you’re consistent or still finding your rhythm
You say no without guilt, and rest without having to earn it
This season isn’t the end of you. It’s the doorway to your next act.
“Dr. Markell listens, she’s enthusiastic and motivating, and she helps me feel okay with myself just as I am. She coaches me on eating, movement, rest and stress, and she recognizes my small wins and gets excited with me. I walked in a year ago feeling defeated. This summer at the beach, I felt confident and completely comfortable in my own skin. I feel like myself again.”

What is 1:1 Mentorship?
Personalized, high-touch support for the woman who is ready to stop pushing through, and start living like midlife is her main event. Through a blend of medical expertise, embodied coaching and feminine liberation practices, we go beyond symptom relief into deep transformation, so you move from just functioning to fully expanding.
You choose the container that best supports you:
3 Months: The Reset. A focused immersion to meet what’s urgent, quiet the noise, and get you moving with clarity and momentum.
6 Months: The Renewal. A deeper dive into your hormones, your nervous system and your body, so the change lasts and ease becomes your new normal.
12 Months: The Reclamation. A full year together for the woman ready to expand into her most vibrant, powerful, unapologetic self. This is your next act.
My frameworks for our work together
The PRESENCE™ Method
A blend of hormonal science, high-level coaching and embodied liberation. Where the clinic meets the sacred.
P – Physiology First: Your nervous system, hormones, sleep and sex drive. We start with the body, because you can’t think your way out of a hormone shift.
R – Reclaiming Your Rhythm: Cycle support and daily rituals that make even your morning coffee feel like a love letter to yourself.
E – Embodiment Practices: Sensual movement, breathwork, sound and dance that bring you back into your body, grounded, alive, and excited.
S – Sacred Safety & Boundaries: Repatterning, consent and voice. Letting go of the good-girl rules that kept you small, and saying no without explaining.
E – Erotic Expression: Reclaiming pleasure, desire mapping and flirtation, for yourself first. Sensual, never performative.
N – Nourishment: Emotional, physical and sensual nourishment. Feeding your body, your joy and your appetite for life.
C – Conscious Connection: Deeper intimacy in all your relationships: with your partner, your friends, and the women rising beside you.
E – Expansion: Living, leading and loving from your full self, and taking up all the space you were made for.
This is where health meets desire, where vitality meets power, where your body becomes a source of freedom, not frustration.
WILD Wellbeing™ Framework
For capable, driven women who know that pushing harder isn’t the answer. Hormonal science meets personal power, so you can lead and live from wholeness, with ease.
The Five Pillars
Hormonal Intelligence
Know your hormones, your cycles and your physiology, so you make decisions from knowledge, not fear.
NOURISHMENT · SACRED CYCLES · INTUITION
Nervous System Resilience
Rest, recover and prevent burnout without giving up your momentum or your values. Your nervous system is your foundation.
RESTORATION · NATURE · EMBODIMENT
Pleasure & Vitality
Pleasure isn’t a reward. It’s fuel for your energy, focus, creativity and connection.
PLEASURE · CONNECTION · REVERIE
Embodied Leadership
Lead from clarity, identity and self-trust, not from roles or constant striving. The more certain you are of who you are, the less you need to prove.
VISION · FREEDOM · SELF-LOVE
Rhythm & Integration
Simple rhythms that weave intuition, cycles and meaning into everyday life, so ease becomes your genius.
SACRED CYCLES · INTUITION · NATURE
This isn’t about doing less or dimming your goals. It’s about aligning drive and rest, joy and leadership, pleasure and purpose, so you can expand.

This mentorship is for women who:
Feel dismissed or unheard at home, at work or in their own bodies, and are ready for a reset
Want whole-person support from a physician coach who sees all of them
Are tired of pushing through, and done performing “fine”
Want to reconnect with pleasure, power, purpose and their own kind of magic
Want personalized, expert guidance for their next act
Is this medical care?
No. Mentorship is coaching and education. I’ll bring everything I know as a physician, but if you want medical care, like labs or hormone therapy, we’ll talk about becoming a patient at my clinic.
Do I have to be your patient?
No. Mentorship is open to women whether or not you’re a patient.
I’m not sure which container is right for me.
That’s what the discovery call is for. We can figure it out together.
Questions women ask me
Is it virtual or in person?
Sessions are virtual, so you can join from anywhere. VIP Days can be in person.
What’s the difference between 1:1 and group?
Private mentorship is just you and me, fully personalized, and I take only four women a year. The Peri Portal group coaching is eight women rising together, with my guidance and each other’s support. We’ll decide on your discovery call if one serves you best.
Your 1:1 Mentorship is completely personalized, and may include:
Private Calls with Dr. Markell
Somatic & Embodiment Coaching
Direct Access Between Sessions
Curated Resources chosen for you
Personalized Practices & Rituals
A VIP day
“Working with Dr. Markell has completely transformed my experience with perimenopause. Before starting my personalized support, I was struggling with insomnia, night sweats, and temperature dysregulation that left me feeling exhausted. Today, I can honestly say I feel great 95 percent of the time. My sleep is excellent. I have the energy to keep up with my busy life as a mom and business owner, travel frequently for my kids sports tournaments, and even started regular workouts. I finally feel like myself again.”
