Explore the feelings, needs, and protective patterns showing up in perimenopause with the PerimenoParts Get to Know the Parts card deck.

A little room for the parts carrying a lot.

Part of you keeps pushing. Part of you is exhausted. Part of you wonders why things that once felt manageable now ask so much of you.

In this second deck of the PerimenoParts series, Get to Know the Parts invites you to slow down and listen to these inner responses. This deck offers questions and prompts to explore the feelings, needs, and protective patterns that may be showing up during perimenopause.

There is no correct response to uncover. You get to decide which words fit, what feels useful, and how deeply you want to explore.

Inside this 50+ card deck, you will find-

● Named parts that offer possible starting points for reflection.

● Questions and brief prompts for exploring feelings, needs, and patterns.

● Invitations to consider what a part may want you to know or may be trying to protect.

● Guidance informed by the qualities of curiosity, compassion, and connection.

This may be your starting point if…

You recognize familiar patterns such as pushing through, people-pleasing, withdrawing, or trying to control everything—and want space to understand them. You may also be looking for a gentle way to begin journaling or bring something meaningful into therapy.

How to use it

Choose a card that catches your attention. Notice what fits and what does not. Consider one question, write a few words, or simply sit with your response. You can rename the part, set the card aside, or explore it with a therapist.

What’s included: One Get to Know the Parts physical card deck.

A little language for a body doing a lot.

When your body feels unfamiliar, it can be hard to know where to begin. Meet the Parts offers a compassionate introduction to the physical experiences that may accompany perimenopause—with relatable illustrations, accessible education, and humor that makes room for the absurdity of it all.

This first card deck in the PerimenoParts series helps you notice what is happening, find words for your experience, and bring more focused questions to your healthcare conversations.

● Illustrated cards introducing a range of perimenopause-related experiences.

● Educational explanations of what may be happening and why.

● Common experiences to notice and questions to discuss with a healthcare provider.

● A welcoming introduction to the PerimenoParts approach.

You want to better describe what you’re noticing in your body. You appreciate information that feels approachable and human. Or you would like a tangible way to begin a conversation about experiences you have struggled to explain.

How to use it

Choose a card that connects with your experience. Read it, note what feels relevant, and jot down questions or patterns you want to discuss with your healthcare provider. You do not need to identify with every card.
