LIFE AFTER 40 is certainly different. 🤪

Responsibilities might be similar, but your body doesn’t cope with the pressure like it used to. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Kids, teens, aging parents, career, relationships and debt are all compounded when your body and mind starts hitting a wall. 😢

Declining and fluctuating 📉 levels of hormones leave you feeling chaotic, while a changing body composition challenges your confidence and health.

Your energy gets zapped, your sleep ain’t good, your moods (think rage and crying spells) take on a new meaning, and you lose part of that younger you.

Take charge!! ❌Don’t allow this new era to be something you suffer through.

When you address:
✔️Sleep
✔️Stress
✔️Nutrition
✔️Exercise and movement
✔️Supplements (evidence-based ones, not the hoo ha ones designed to pray on your low esteem)
You can and will feel back in control with a new level of appreciation for your amazing body. 🙏

Check out my workshop here, designed to address all of this with SCIENCE-BACKED SOLUTIONS!!

FAT LOSS 101…

💪 Are You an Active Woman in Perimenopause or Menopause

Here’s what you need to know to improve body composition and manage symptoms.

✔️Eat for Recovery, Not Restriction!

Fasted training, calorie restriction, and low-protein diets can backfire, leading to heightened cravings, poor sleep, impaired metabolism and poor recovery.
At this stage of life, you need adequate protein and carbohydrates, especially post‑workout.

Fuelling after exercise helps:

Support recovery
Replenish glycogen
Optimise brain and hormone health

✔️NEXT: Address Iron Levels!

So many women in this phase have low iron, which worsens fatigue and intensifies peri/menopausal symptoms.

Low iron = metabolic slowdown + exhaustion.

Monitor your levels and supplement if/when needed to stay energised and resilient.

✔️LAST BUT DEFINITELY NOT LEAST: Prioritise Sleep

Poor sleep drives cravings and overeating. And during fat loss, you’ll lose more muscle than fat if sleep is compromised.
Get your sleep right first, and everything else will follow.

PERI/MENOPAUSE WORKSHOP DAY ONE!

What a wonderful group of women who attended. We shared our stories, our experiences, our ‘ peri turmoil’ - there were lots of tears 😭 and then we regrouped to take action!

Yes, the transition to menopause is chaotic and overwhelming at times- especially when life is at its peak of responsibility- but there are many things we can do to reclaim our body & mind. ♥️

Day one covered:
👉🏼SLEEP
👉🏼STRESS MANAGEMENT & BOUNDARIES
👉🏼NUTRITION & MEAL PLANNING

PLUS an amazing guest appearance from Kylie Rankin who covered
👉🏼THE MUSCULAR SKELETAL SYNDROME OF MENOPAUSE & THE GENITOURINARY SYNDROME OF MENOPAUSE two key issues that most women aren’t aware of.
Especially GSM and the therapies available to massively improve your quality of life!

We will regroup in three weeks for Day 2 where we will cover EXERCISE & RESISTANCE TRAINING, SUPPLEMENTS and MENOPAUSE HORMONE THERAPY.
With another exciting guest speaker! 🔈

I am exhausted but so happy to have completed my first workshop of many.
12 months in the making- born from my own experiences of perimenopause.
I want to build an environment where quality, evidence-based education is readily accessible. This is not an era of your life to just suffer through!🙅🏼‍♀️

We can reclaim our body with good lifestyle routines and enjoy and thrive and feel radiant after 40!

Today I read that many mid-life women spend the last 20% of their life in the worst health and feel their worst… 😢
This is happening at an age when they should really be revelling in life experience, wisdom and a sense of freedom. 🤦🏼‍♀️

FAT GAIN, INFLAMMATION AND PERI/MENOPAUSE.

Perimenopause and post menopause- the reckoning! 🫣
👉🏼For some, it’s a train wreck experience.
👉🏼For some it’s a walk in the park.
👉🏼For most it’s challenging, frustrating and exhausting.

The declining hormones create heightened inflammation and a change in the fat storage area- to the abdomen, as dangerous visceral fat.
Both are damaging to our metabolic health, hence why many women are at their worst health wise, along with feeling their worst.

‼️You do not have to accept this. It’s not a case of suffering through it. 🙅🏼‍♀️

You have the choice to change some lifestyle habits, create some new ones, to seek help from up-to-date evidence-based doctors- all so you can feel good again and reclaim your health!

You don’t have to do it all at once.
Start small.

Get educated and informed, advocate for your health. 👊🏻

I’m running Peri/menopause workshops (the first one tomorrow!!) centred around what YOU CAN DO to take back control and feel good again.
I am on a mission to stand up for women’s health in mid-life.

We deserve to feel our best! 🫶🏻

AGING GRACEFULLY
Perimenopause can feel anything but graceful!
Day to day you don’t know who you’re going to be 🤯😡😭😃 plus the brain fog, body changes and hot flushes.

But there are lots of lifestyle changes you can make to help the transition AND set you up to age gracefully now and post-menopause.

▶️SLEEP
▶️STRESS MANAGEMENT & BOUNDARIES
▶️EXERCISE - specifically resistance training
NUTRITION
▶️SOME SUPPLEMENTS- note I said some… most are marketing crap to play at your frustration
▶️BODY COMPOSITION CHANGES

All of these done right will remarkably improve your health and symptoms AND set you up to age gracefully throughout the years.

When fat loss is hard…
The viscous roundabout of perimenopause 🔄

You KNOW you need exercise and you know specifically resistance training will improve health and metabolism.
BUT what if you’re so friggin fatigued and losing your mind from a lack of sleep, and heightened anxiety? 🤦🏼‍♀️🤯😵

BEFORE training, always examine sleep and stress management.
When you can get on top of these, by default fat loss is enhanced, muscle loss slows and your renewed energy and balance allows exercise to feel easier and enjoyable.

Result? Fat loss will happen! ✔️

Two of my favourites to help with sleep and reduction of stress and anxiety are:

🔹L-theanine - L-theanine is a calming amino acid that promotes relaxation without causing drowsiness. Calms, focuses, relaxes and balances your mind.

🔹Ashwaganda - It promotes a sense of calm, reduces anxiety symptoms and can improve sleep and mental clarity.

Ladies, you don’t need to accept defeat and just survive, you can take action and THRIVE!!

‼️Day One of our PERIMENOPAUSE AND MENOPAUSE workshop is almost here 🥰

Learn how to lose body fat, sleep through the night, get your energy back and kick those symptoms in the a*s!

👉🏼Join us for DAY ONE from 9AM to 4PM on Saturday, August 2nd.

Here’s what’s waiting for you:

💬 We’ll dive into the real talk- understanding perimenopause, menopause and beyond.
We’ll explore symptoms and share our stories to build rapport and connection - you won’t feel alone any longer!
☕ Tea and coffee provided to fuel the conversation!

🥦 A deep dive into nutrition and meal planning:
We’ll cover protein requirements, how to hit your protein target, what to do with carbs and fats-and how to induce fat loss- not muscle loss in this phase of life
I’ll guide you step-by-step to develop a meal plan that fits YOU- giving you practical strategies to support your body composition, energy and wellness.

🥗 Enjoy a nourishing lunch on us while connecting with like-minded women.

🎤 Special guest speaker Kylie Rankin joins us to unpack the 🦴 Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause AND the Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause
These are two topics that deserve more attention! You’ll walk away with tools to manage both conditions with confidence.

😴 We’ll also cover sleep, stress management, and boundaries. Because rest and resilience are non-negotiable during this time of life.
We’ll reset your planner to make sure you’re prioritising yourself first again.

💫 Come curious, leave empowered.
This is more than a workshop! I’m creating a space for women to reclaim control.

“I am doing everything I can to lose body fat and nothing is working!” 🤷🏼‍♀️😫

I get it- fat loss after 4️⃣0️⃣ feels a lot harder.
And not only that, you seem to gain it waaay faster too!

It feels like no one prepared us for this…
What worked in our 20s and 30s feels like no longer delivers the same results. It’s frustrating and causes so much self-doubt.

Here’s what’s happening:

👉🏼Declining hormone levels- along with chaotic fluctuations- create mayhem in our bodies. We see accelerated muscle loss and a much quicker gain of body fat. And not only that, there’s a redistribution of fat to our belly area! 🥲

👉🏼Then there are the sleep disruptions (from low progesterone), which sap our recovery and willpower, along with hot flushes from low estrogen that leave us feeling fatigued and more prone to cravings and increased hunger levels.

👉🏼This fatigue can make it harder to prepare meals, exercise consistently, and prioritise self-care. You’re literally just trying to make it through the day.

I see 👀 YOU.
In fact, I speak to women like you all the time.
And at 48 I’m going through it myself…
We deserve to feel better at this age‼️

This is why I created my Perimenopause Workshop.
