Crossing the Sacred Threshold: Menopause & Me, A Memoir of Becoming (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798180062932)

The Sacred Threshold: The Season of Menopause by Elder Mushir Howell
No one prepared her for this season.
So she prepared herself - and then opened the door for the rest of us.
The Sacred Threshold is not a menopause manual. It is a mirror, a memory, and a return.
With raw honesty, spiritual depth, and unapologetic truth, Elder Mushir Howell invites Black women into a conversation we were never taught how to have - about our bodies, our trauma, our power, and the sacred transformation that begins when estrogen leaves and wisdom arrives.
Blending lived experience, ancestral insight, nervous-system healing, and soul-level clarity, this book reframes menopause not as decline, but as initiation. A threshold. A crossing into authority, discernment, and embodied sovereignty.
Inside these pages, you will find stories that sound like your own, language for symptoms you never had words for, and practices that restore calm, clarity, and self-trust. You will discover why menopause affects Black women differently, how trauma lives in the body, and what it truly means to heal beyond survival.
This book is for the woman who has carried everyone else.
For the woman who has prayed, pushed, performed, and persisted - and is finally ready to come home to herself.
The Sacred Threshold is a sister circle in book form.
A place where truth is spoken without shame.
Where healing is embodied, not performed.
And where becoming is honored.
This is not the end of anything.
This is the season where you step fully into who you have always been.
