MY STORY

How it all started

With over 20 years of expertise in healthcare as a Registered Nurse and Midwife, along with a BSc (Hons), I've been dedicated to guiding women through their unique health and nutrition journeys across various life stages.

I always thought I'd sail smoothly through perimenopause, escaping the symptoms I'd heard so many women talk about.

But when I turned 50, everything changed.

I was hit with joint pain - a symptom I'd never known before, crippling anxiety & I felt like a stranger in my own body.

I felt isolated and alone, looking for answers.

But when I turned 50, everything changed.

I was hit with joint pain - a symptom I'd never known before, crippling anxiety & I felt like a stranger in my own body.

I felt isolated and alone, looking for answers.

And that's where my story takes a turn...

I immersed myself in research about menopause, dedicating many hours to sorting through conflicting advice.

Driven by my own experiences, I pursued further education to become a Certified Menopause Coach.

Now, equipped with both personal understanding and professional training, I am dedicated to helping other women navigate their way through midlife.

ARE YOU READY FOR CHANGE?

Understand the reasons behind the changes in your body and why

previous strategies may not be helping...

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED...

"Why am I gaining weight during menopause?"

I understand firsthand how eating needs have to change during perimenopause. We are worth so much more than the oversimplified notion of "calories in versus calories out".

It's more complicated now!

"Why do perimenopause symptoms come and go?"

Now, more than ever it's essential to recognise your individual needs with diet, stress, sleep & exercise to help with perimenopause & menopause symptoms.

"Are menopause supplements safe?"

NO, they are NOT always safe. I'll give you the truth behind supplements. You'll stop wasting money on products that promise weight loss and symptom relief but do NOT deliver.

"What supplements can I take for perimenopause?"

The supplement industry is NOT regulated and these "magic" supplements are often targeted at us. I'll share which supplements are actually safe (especially if you're on prescribed medication) and help with perimenopause.

"Why do perimenopause symptoms come and go?"

Get a clear explanation of how hormone changes in perimenopause cause your symptoms to shift.

"what to ask & how to talk to my doctor about menopause."

Furthermore, I'll help you to engage in informed conversations with healthcare providers.
