Menopause lifestyle coaching for women in midlife

It's not all in your head. And you're not alone. ♡

I help women move through menopause feeling informed, validated and supported, turning the silent struggle into a season of growth that restores energy, mental balance and confidence. Always with menopause in mind.

you're so welcome here

Menopause isn't the end. It's a powerful invitation to reconnect with your body, your dreams and your sense of self.

Through evidence-based knowledge and my DAWN framework, I help you understand your changing body, manage your symptoms with awareness, and build self-trust that lasts.

01

I've lived it

I was told it was depression. I was dismissed and left to figure it out alone. I know exactly how isolating that feels, and how to find a way through.

02

Evidence-based, never generic

Real, grounded knowledge that cuts through the conflicting advice and clever marketing, so you can stop guessing and start knowing.

03

You, not a template

Everything starts with your symptoms, your circumstances and your life. No one-size-fits-all solutions. Just what's true for you.

04

Menopause is everyone's story

Support that honours the people you love too, because every relationship is touched by this transition.

the path we walk together

The Menopause DAWN Framework

From the silent struggle to living with menopause in mind: four gentle, grounded stages built from my own journey through the fog.

D

Discover

Let go of the fear

Recognise that what you're experiencing is menopause, not a loss of who you are. You are not going crazy, and your thoughts and feelings are valid.

A

Align

Harmonising body, mind & purpose

Listen to your body's signals and build a clear, robust foundation. No more fighting your body or trying one-size-fits-all solutions.

W

Wisdom

The power of knowledge

Armed with evidence-based knowledge, you make decisions that are right for your unique body and life, and learn to trust your own judgement again.

N

Nurture

Sustaining menopausal wellbeing

Ongoing self-care and compassion, adapting as your hormones shift, so you stay grounded, energised and confident, whatever changes.

Menopause coach · Workplace trainer · Founder of Menopause Dawn

I know how this feels because I've lived it. I was dismissed, told it was depression, and left to figure it out alone. So I did. I studied the science, did the work, and found my way through.

That journey became the DAWN framework. It's not a theory. It's the path I walked, and the one I now use to guide other women with the evidence-based knowledge, compassion and individual focus I wished someone had offered me.

I combine the science of what's happening in your body with the real, lived experience of what it actually feels like, so you never have to feel dismissed, uninformed or alone in this again.

When I'm not coaching, you'll find me walking my two dogs through the forest or along the beach, coffee in hand, or singing with my choir and bands.

Together, we thrive

You're in the right place if…

you're a woman in midlife who has always been the capable one, and lately you're running on empty,

you've been to the doctor, tried the supplements, read every article, and still feel unheard,

and you're ready to feel clear, confident and grounded in your changing body.
