When I tell you, I can’t even describe the joy the love the respect the honor and SURPRISE I felt last night when I watched my friend @thekennethard take…no, COMMAND the stage as Old Deuteronomy in @catsthejellicleband !!! I’m still in awe as I wake up this morning and realize what I witnessed last night. He is wonderful!! He has been a star from the moment he was the “Foot In Yo Ass Sam” to my “Too Tight Nora” in Jelly’s Last Jam to the moment we shared the Stage in Smoky Joe’s Café dancing Spanish Harlem. I love you Ken Ard and I’m so happy for and proud of you. The entire company was🔥🔥🔥 under the firm, competent hands of @codyrenard . A star I’ve watched become the best PSM in years! ❤️😘 IT’S NEVER TOO LATE FOR WHAT GOD UNIVERSE HAS FOR YOU!!💜💜💜💜💜💜 ⭐️✨🌟💫 #CATS #act2nowwhat
Menopause doesn’t just happen to women. It happens within relationships.
And yet… no one talks about that part.
So I created PAUSE Together™.
A shared wellness experience designed for couples navigating change—physically, emotionally, and intimately.
Because support shouldn’t feel clinical. It should feel like:
💜 A calming ritual at the end of the day. 💜 A moment of connection instead of confusion. 💜 A partner who understands what your body is going through
This is where PAUSE by BBRAXTON™ evolves.
From individual care → to shared experience. From products → to rituals From menopause → to connection
This isn’t just a category shift. It’s a conversation shift.
And I believe it belongs in: • Hotels •Resorts• Wellness retreats• Corporate wellness programs
Because when one person is going through a transition…the relationship is too.
Tonight, we PAUSE. Together.

There comes a moment when you realize…
you’re not becoming someone new.
You’re finally stepping fully into who you’ve always been.
For me, this season isn’t about reinvention.
It’s about ownership.
Ownership of my voice.
Ownership of my journey.
Ownership of the spaces I now have the courage to create.
I’ve lived many lives on stage, on screen, and in rooms where I was invited.
But now, I’m building rooms of my own.
Rooms where women—especially those navigating menopause and perimenopause—feel seen, celebrated, and powerful in their evolution.
Because stepping into your power doesn’t mean you have all the answers.
It means you trust yourself enough to move forward anyway.
This is what PAUSE by BBRAXTON™ represents for me.
Not slowing down…
but stepping forward with intention, clarity, and joy.
And I’m just getting started.

The moment you’ve been missing in travel
There’s a quiet moment in travel that’s rarely acknowledged.
The moment after arrival—when the journey is still in the body, and before the world begins asking anything of her again.
For many women, especially those navigating menopause and perimenopause, that moment matters more than we realize.
PAUSE by BBRAXTON™ was created to meet her there.
Not as a product, but as a ritual—one that allows her to reset, feel grounded, and arrive fully.
This Mother’s Day, we’re continuing to reimagine what it means to feel taken care of in travel and hospitality.
Because true luxury isn’t just how a place looks.It’s how it allows you to feel..#pausebybbraxton #act2nowwhat #mothersday #pausereflectredefine
TODAY’S HOT FLASH🔥
Today’s hot flash isn’t here to embarrass you…
It’s here to remind you:
You are still powerful.
Still radiant.
Still evolving.
This moment—this heat, this shift, this pause—
is not something to hide.
It’s your body speaking.
And she deserves to be heard… with grace.
So today, we don’t apologize for the moment.
We honor it.
On PAUSE. But never dimmed.

Today’s Hot Flash🔥 HOT AND SWEATY AND ON THE GO!!
Sometimes you don’t realize what your body needs…
until you finally slow down.
For many women in perimenopause and menopause,
travel isn’t just about where you go—
it’s about how your body feels when you get there.
Sleep changes.
Temperature shifts.
Comfort becomes essential.
And yet, this part of the experience is rarely considered.
PAUSE by BBRAXTON™ was created to meet women in that moment—
bringing ease, comfort, and care into the travel experience.
Because true luxury isn’t just what you see…
it’s how you feel.
Hospitality leaders—there’s an opportunity here.

TODAY’S HOT FLASH 🔥
Hot flashes don’t wait for the “right” moment.
They happen in airport lounges, hotel suites, meetings, and moments that are meant to feel calm — yet suddenly aren’t.
That’s exactly why I created PAUSE by BBRAXTON™.
Because women navigating perimenopause and menopause deserve more than just “getting through it” —
they deserve thoughtful, elevated support integrated into the spaces they already inhabit.
This image represents more than a product.
It represents a shift in hospitality, wellness, and how we care for women in midlife.
💜Comfort should be designed
💜Care should be visible
💜And relief should feel luxurious
We’re not just creating products —
we’re redefining the experience.

“The Moment I Realized Travel Was Different for Me”
There was a moment when I realized…
Travel didn’t feel the same anymore.
Not worse.
Not impossible.
Just… different.
As women, we’re told what to expect from travel—packing lists, itineraries, luxury experiences.
But no one talks about what happens when your body is changing while you’re moving through the world.
💜The sudden heat on a plane
💜The exhaustion that doesn’t match your schedule
💜The need for comfort—not just style
💜The desire for calm, not chaos, when you arrive
That’s where PAUSE by BBRAXTON was born.
Not from a business idea…
But from a lived experience.
I started asking myself:
What would travel feel like if it actually supported women in perimenopause and menopause?
That question became everything.
-Travel cases designed with intention
-Footwear created by a performer who understands movement and comfort
-In-room experiences that help you land, reset, and exhale
This isn’t just about products.
It’s about redefining what it means to move through the world as a woman in this stage of life.
And creating space for her to feel… incredible doing it.
We deserve that.

STOP BEING SO MAD ABOUT MENOPAUSE!!
#There’s a narrative around menopause that we’ve all heard…
That it’s something to “get through.”
That it’s uncomfortable.
That it’s something we quietly endure.
But what if that’s not the full story?
At PAUSE Kitchen Conversations, we’re creating something different.
We’re creating space for laughter.
For honesty.
For connection.
For joy.
Because yes—our bodies are changing.
But so are our perspectives.
Our freedom.
Our confidence.
Our ability to truly own who we are.
In these moments—standing in the kitchen, sharing stories, raising a glass—we’re reminded:
💜We are not alone
💜We are still vibrant
💜We are still evolving
💜And there is so much joy in this chapter
Menopause isn’t the end of something.
It’s a powerful continuation.
And when women come together in truth, humor, and sisterhood…
that’s where the magic happens.
Welcome to PAUSE.
Where we don’t just talk about menopause—
we celebrate it.
