What does Issviva mean?
Issviva means to be alive!
Issviva is dreaming, making, creating. A community stating that a better menopause is for the taking. Conceived from a desire to not settle, not simply cope, not quietly exist. Innovators furiously galvanised. And you.
Journeying together against the fog of misinformation, ignorance and misrepresentation. Breathing life into Issviva, a community creation. Those who demand more and are tired of the darkness.
We’re co-creators with all of you, developing solutions that enable you to take control and ease your specific needs at this life stage.
Because menopause won’t stop you. Titled menopause or not, our transformation is real and we call for vivacious long living.
won't stop you!
You are invited to join the conversation and be part of our journey to break barriers and taboos around menopause for women all over the globe.
Because YOU should keep moving.
