Presented as part of the Advancing Women’s Health Series, which is generously sponsored by Meredith Loring and Sami Inkinen.

Featuring Dr. Natalie Crawford, double board-certified OB/GYN and Reproductive Endocrinologist, co-founder of Fora Fertility, and author of “The Fertility Formula” (April 2026). Drawing from the latest research and her extensive clinical experience in reproductive endocrinology, Dr. Crawford will explore the complex and often misunderstood relationship between age, hormones, lifestyle and fertility. She will discuss the impact of inflammation on hormonal shifts throughout your reproductive lifespan, and the impact on menstrual cycles, fertility, perimenopause, and long term reproductive health.

While attendance at this event is free and open to everyone, registration is required, and capacity is established on a first-come, first-served basis.

Born Troy Andrews, Trombone Shorty got his start (and nickname) earlier than most: at four, he made his first appearance at Jazz Fest performing with Bo Diddley; at six, he was leading his own brass band; and by his teenage years, he was hired by Lenny Kravitz to join the band he assembled for his Electric Church World Tour. Shorty’s proven he’s more than just a horn player, though.
