The idea for the badge, was inspired by the rings of a tree. We want the badge to celebrate women’s wisdom and new chapter in life. Not forgetting their past, but it being their strength which helps them conquer this new chapter. “A new layer of wood is added in each growing season, thickening the stem, existing branches and roots, to form a growth ring.” Each ring will represent the knowledge they have gained throughout their life. I thought that it would be a nice idea if the badges came in packs of two, so that you can take one for yourself and the other one can be for a friend or relative. After gifting them with the badge, you could give them advice about menopause. Passing on information which can be used to start a conversation. “Trees contain some of nature's most accurate evidence of the past. Their growth layers, appearing as rings in the cross section of the tree trunk, record evidence of floods, droughts, insect attacks, lightning strikes, and even earthquakes that occurred during the lifespan of the tree. Subtle changes in the thickness of the rings over time indicate changes in length of, or water availability during, the growing season. http://www.windows2universe.org/earth/climate/CDcourses_treerings.html
