Feel like yourself again. But better.

1-2-1 Menopause Coaching

Do you feel like you’ve lost your usual energy, confidence or clarity?

Perhaps you’re struggling with poor sleep, anxiety, brain fog or fatigue. Maybe you don’t quite recognise yourself anymore — and you’re wondering how to get back to feeling like you.

Menopause can affect so much more than your physical health. It can influence your confidence, relationships, work, motivation and sense of identity.

My coaching gives you the time, space and practical support to understand what is happening and, importantly, work out what you can do about it.

Thrive – my 7-week menopause coaching programme

Together, we’ll explore what’s going on for you, what you want to change and the practical steps that can help you feel better.

Over the 7 sessions you’ll develop your Thrive Menopause Plan focusing on: Mindset, Routine, Nutrition, Exercise, Sleep, Decluttering & Boundary Setting.

Through the programme, you’ll work towards:

  • Rediscovering yourself and reconnecting with what makes you feel good
  • Sleeping better and understanding what may be affecting your sleep
  • Having more energy and learning how to manage your energy more effectively
  • Improving clarity and focus and tackling the impact of brain fog
  • Building confidence in your decisions and your ability to manage change
  • Understanding your menopause so you can make informed choices about your health and wellbeing
  • Creating habits that last, rather than relying on quick fixes

This isn’t about trying to turn back the clock.

It’s about understanding yourself, making changes that work for you and moving forward feeling more confident, energised and in control.

Certified Menopause Coach

From Advertising to Menopause

After 12 years working in the field of Advertising in London agencies, I joined the family business in 2007 following the birth of my daughter, Holly. At the time, intimate health and menopause were still very much taboo subjects but I could see the huge potential in the brand. The lubricant market was ready for change and I could sense amongst my own networks that women were becoming more curious and open about sexual wellbeing & health.

Sylk became one of the leading lubricant brands, was available on prescription and listed on shelf at Boots as well as chemists throughout the UK. The product was recommended by health professionals and we worked closely with organisations like The British Menopause Society, Newson Health Clinic, Menopause Matters etc.

My passion for perimenopause support

In my early 40s, I started to experience perimenopause symptoms.

I was chronically tired, anxious and flat. I had heart palpitations and my hair was thinning. I have always had really thick, curly hair, so I found this very distressing.
Because I was not having the classic hot flushes and night sweats, I did not think it could be menopause. At that time, perimenopause was not really something people talked about.

I went to see my GP, but the doctor said I was too young to be menopausal and it must be something else. As my symptoms were not life-threatening, I carried on for a few more years and put them down to juggling a young family while running my business.

As I learned more about perimenopause through my work, I realised my symptoms were due to hormone fluctuations. That began my own journey of discovery to find and build a menopause plan that helped me navigate this life stage and thrive during the next chapter.

I made small but consistent changes to my lifestyle which, alongside HRT, made a profound difference to my menopause journey, my relationships and my work life.

Creating your personal menopause toolkit

I believe every woman needs a personal toolkit of resources that she can draw on as she navigates menopause. There are many ways to manage menopause, both hormonal and non-hormonal, and it is a personal choice how each woman decides to do that.

As a coach, I will support you to create a menopause plan tailored to your personal needs.

Today’s midlife women often carry more responsibility than ever before. Many are busy, stretched and used to putting themselves at the bottom of their own to-do list. When perimenopause symptoms arrive at the same time, it can add to the chaos. Many women feel overwhelmed, lost or frazzled, but do not know where to turn for help.

Menopause coaching gives women the chance to focus on themselves, make sense of what is happening and plan their menopause journey with support.
It can be a time of reawakening. A chance to reassess where you are, think about how you want to spend the next chapter of your life and make changes that genuinely support your wellbeing.

By working with a Menopause Coach, you can shape your goals, think about strategies to overcome obstacles and gain a toolkit of resources to help you access a happier, healthier version of yourself.
