THE RISE OF THE ENCHANTRESS is a holistic guide to help you thrive through menopause
 
"This is not a book.
It’s a portal.
A call to the woman
who’s been waiting
to break free from the cage of shoulds.
Menopause is your rebellion,
your reclamation,
your wildfire heart
burning through the myths
that tried to dim your light.
You are not fading.
You are forging a new path,
etched in stardust and sweat.
Step into these pages.
Meet the enchantress
who’s been you
all along.
Rise."
 
For too long, menopause has been treated as merely a medical condition to be managed or endured—a collection of uncomfortable symptoms signalling decline. This groundbreaking book offers a refreshingly different perspective, presenting menopause as a natural, transformative life passage with the potential for profound growth and renewal.

Written with warmth, wisdom, and evidence-based expertise, "The Rise of the Enchantress" integrates cutting-edge research with practical guidance and personal experience. The author draws on her professional background in Somatic Movement and Dance Therapy alongside her own menopausal journey to create a comprehensive resource that addresses the physical, psychological, cultural, and spiritual dimensions of this significant transition.

This book is for you if:
* You're approaching or experiencing perimenopause or menopause and seeking natural approaches
* You want to understand both the science and the deeper meaning of this life transition
* You're looking for practical strategies to manage symptoms while supporting overall well-being
* You're ready to challenge limiting cultural narratives about aging and female bodies
* You're curious about the potential for growth and transformation during this life phase

Unlike conventional menopause resources that focus exclusively on symptom management, this book explores how this transition can serve as a gateway to increased authenticity, wisdom, and power. From evidence-based nutritional and movement approaches to psychological insights and relationship guidance, it provides a holistic framework for not only surviving but also thriving through menopause.

Discover how cultures around the world view this transition differently, how the patriarchal system has shaped our understanding of female aging, and how you can reclaim this passage as a meaningful developmental journey. Learn about the emerging "Enchantress" archetype that offers an empowering model for post-reproductive womanhood beyond limited cultural stereotypes.

"The Rise of the Enchantress" doesn't deny the real challenges that can accompany hormonal changes. Instead, it offers compassionate and practical guidance while illuminating the deeper significance of this profound life transition. Whether you're just beginning to experience perimenopausal symptoms or well into your post-menopausal years, this book offers wisdom, support, and a revolutionary perspective on what it means to cross the threshold into the wisdom years of a woman's life.

Why do you keep having the same fight? Why does your partner know exactly how to trigger you? And why—despite loving each other—do you sometimes feel like you're speaking different languages?

Transforming How You Love, Together answers these questions not with theory, but with practical tools you can use today. This practical book guides couples through a five-stage journey of relationship transformation: from understanding the unconscious patterns driving their conflicts to building something meaningful that inspires them both.

More Than Fixing What's Broken
This isn't another book about "communication tips" or "how to fight fair." Those approaches treat symptoms. This book goes deeper.

The real work isn't about changing your partner. It's about understanding yourself—your wounds, your reactions, your protective patterns—and taking responsibility for how you show up. The friction in your relationship isn't a flaw. It's a mirror, showing you the places in yourself still asking to be healed.

But this book doesn't stop at healing what hurts. It guides you toward building something that genuinely inspires you both: a shared vision, meaningful rituals, connection to purpose beyond yourselves, and a legacy worth leaving. Because a relationship isn't just a problem to be solved—it's a vehicle for becoming who you're meant to be.

For Any Stage of Your Relationship
Whether you're just moving in together and discovering how different you really are, navigating the seismic shift of becoming parents, weathering the pressures of careers and young children, or finding yourselves in midlife, wondering "is this it?"—this workbook meets you where you are.

* Just starting out? Build your foundation right. Learn each other's patterns before they become entrenched, and create rituals that will carry you through decades.
* In the chaos of young family life? Reconnect when you're exhausted and 'touched-out'. Protect your partnership while parenting demands everything you've got.
* In the midlife reckoning? Rediscover each other after years of autopilot. Address what's been avoided. Build the relationship you actually want for the next chapter.
* Empty nesters or beyond? Remember who you are together when the distractions fall away. Create meaning and legacy for the years ahead.

Why Another Relationship Book?
There are already so many excellent books explaining why we do what we do in relationships. The psychology. The attachment theory. The neuroscience. You can read them, nod along, and still find yourself in the same fight next Tuesday.

This book is different because it's not about understanding—it's about applying.
Reading about patterns isn't the same as mapping YOUR pattern. Learning about "losing strategies" isn't the same as tracking which ones YOU use and when. Understanding attachment theory isn't the same as seeing how YOUR attachment style collides with your partner's in YOUR specific dance.

Every concept in this book comes with worksheets, assessments, reflection questions, and practical exercises designed to help you move from "that's interesting" to "that's ME—and here's what I'm going to do about it."

This is the book the author wished had existed when she was doing her own relationship work. It takes the wisdom of Terry Real's Relational Life Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Somatic approaches, and ACT—and translates it into something you can actually use. Not someday. Today.

The Invitation
Your relationship is one of the greatest opportunities for personal growth you'll ever have. Every rupture is an invitation. Every trigger is information. Every conflict is a chance to heal something old and choose something new.

This book won't make your relationship perfect. But it will give you the awareness to see what's really happening, the skills to respond differently, and the framework to build something that doesn't just survive—but thrives.

The only question is: Are you willing to do the work?

Anneriek Favelle is a therapist specialising in couples work, integrating Relational Life Therapy (RLT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Somatic approaches. She works with individuals and couples at Inner Growth Therapy in New South Wales, Australia.

In a world where teenage boys receive confusing and contradictory messages about what it means to be a man, Secrets of the Round Table offers a groundbreaking approach to understanding authentic masculinity. Drawing from Carl Jung's archetypal psychology and Robert Moore's research on masculine development, therapist and mother Anneriek Favelle presents a practical framework that helps teenage boys integrate all aspects of themselves without sacrificing strength or sensitivity.

This book introduces the revolutionary "Round Table" concept—four inner archetypes (King, Magician, Warrior, and Lover) that every young man can access to navigate life's challenges with wisdom, courage, and authenticity. Rather than forcing boys to choose between being "tough" or "soft," this approach shows them how to be both strong and emotionally intelligent, confident and vulnerable, independent and connected.

What makes this book unique:
* Research-based approach: Integrates insights from Jung's Masculine archetypes, Terry Real's work on patriarchy and masculinity, Brené Brown's research on emotional intelligence, and other evidence-based therapeutic modalities
* Practical tools: Includes exercises, real-world examples, and concrete strategies boys can use immediately
* Non-judgmental perspective: Acknowledges the challenges of growing up male in today's world without pathologising traditional masculine qualities
* Comprehensive coverage: Addresses relationships, mental health, substance use, sexuality, confidence building, and emotional intelligence

Written by a qualified therapist who specialises in Internal Family Systems, Somatic Therapy, and Relational Life Therapy, and informed by her experience raising two teenage boys, this book fills a critical gap in resources for young men seeking authentic self-development.

Secrets of the Round Table is essential reading for teenage boys ready to discover who they really are, parents wanting to support their sons' healthy development, educators working with young men, and anyone interested in nurturing the next generation of emotionally intelligent, confident, and authentic male leaders.

Target audience: Teenage boys (ages 13-18), parents of teenage boys, educators, counsellors, and youth workers.
