After 121/2 years of fun adventures and lots of love, I said goodbye to Sara this morning and she crossed the rainbow bridge 🌈 to take walks and find treats on the other side.

She was loving, communicative and enjoying life right up until her last day.🦮

She never ceased to check-in on my well-being even at the end and now she can relax ☺️

She was loved by so many and will be dearly missed.😭❤️🦮

One minute you’re smashing deadlines and workouts...

The next? You’re flat on the sofa, wired but tired, wondering what happened to your body.

👉 Perimenopause has a way of sneaking up on you.
And no — you’re not imagining the weight gain, mood swings, sore breasts, or shattered sleep.

But here’s the truth:
Your body isn’t failing you. It’s asking for a different kind of support.

When you understand what’s happening with your hormones — and eat to work with your body — you can reclaim your:

💤 Sleep
⚡️ Energy
🌸 Mood
🔥 Confidence

✨ Stop guessing. Start understanding.

It’s time to stop fighting your body and start supporting it.
Diet culture has kept us in a constant state of restriction and guilt, but when you hit your 40s and perimenopause sets in, that’s not the path to success.
Your body needs more to thrive:
✅ More protein to support strength and muscle
✅ More healthy fats for hormone health
✅ More fiber to manage excess estrogen
✅ More magnesium for better sleep and mood stability
I learned the hard way—but you don’t have to!
Once I shifted to embracing nourishing foods that truly support my body in midlife, my symptoms disappeared. I felt energized, clear-headed, and my body began to release that stubborn weight. 💥

The 1 thing a woman needs to do in perimenopause.

Perimenopause is blindsiding😵

One minute you are feeling great, working out and keeping all the plates spinning at work and in the home and the next you are slumped on the sofa, too exhausted to go to the gym and relying on coffee to give you the energy to get out of bed in the morning.😟

You feel at war with your body with unexplained weight gain around your hips and middle, sore breasts and a tanking libido and you don’t really feel like yourself anymore.

The most powerful move you can make at this time is to educate yourself on what is happening to your hormones, health and body and step back into your power to feed your body the food it craves to be supported through perimenopause and to reclaim your sleep, mood and energy.💃🏽💪🏽💥

If you’re tired of guessing, Googling, or hoping for change, comment LEARN to access my FREE educational video The Power of Nutrition in Menopause.☝️☝️

Because you don’t have to figure this out alone. You just need a system that works—and a coach who gets it.

😩 Overwhelmed by work?
🥱 Waking up exhausted - again?
🥗 Confused about what to eat for your changing body?
😤 Snapping at the people you love, then feeling guilty?

If you nodded at even one of these... you’re not alone, and you’re not failing.

These aren’t personality flaws or signs of weakness.
They’re symptoms of stress + hormonal shifts in midlife.

Here’s the truth no one tells you:
👉 Your body is not broken. It’s speaking to you.
👉 Stress amplifies menopause symptoms like anxiety, weight gain, poor sleep, and brain fog.
👉 You can calm it all - with support, not struggle.

I help midlife women decode what’s really going on so they can stop the spiral and feel like themselves again, with food-first strategies, nervous system support, and daily habits that soothe instead of deplete.

You don’t have to keep powering through.
Let’s start unwinding the stress together.

DM me to learn the ways you can work with me to create baby steps to feeling calmer, clearer and back in control.

My Story

What does a woman do when she hits her late 40’s and feels 75 on the daily? Let me tell you...you have a choice of aging from where you are today or you pull up your big girl panties and take a long hard look at your life and your health and start making changes. For me this included returning to school and training in nutrition. I arrived at my desk with:

A sluggish thyroid, which slowed my metabolism to a snails pace and left me feeling bloated, fat and unhappy.

Adrenal fatigue which left me feeling tired all the time...even on waking!! Blood sugar spikes and crashes which left me craving carbs all of the time and crashing with zero energy in the afternoon...cue more carbs! Aching joints, 30lb to lose, sleep disrupting anxiety, a bloated and gassy belly and varicose veins. I felt deeply unhappy in my life and in my body...I was old before my time, overwhelmed by even fun family events and I was missing out on the enjoyment of life and on loving myself.

Funny story...after repeated visits to my doctor I was told that this was normal for my age and I should EXPECT to feel achy and tired at my age. For the first time in my life I took a stand for my health and my happiness. I found teachers that could show me the way and I began to question everything I had been doing to get my body back. Turns out, the diets, restriction and hours of cardio that worked for us in our twenties and thirties do not work for the peri-menopausal woman. In midlife our hormones are changing and our bodies respond to deep nutrition, tender self-care and intuitive eating. Our midlife bodies are our biography and midlife is a time when we can get to know our bodies again, learn what foods support thriving midlife health and ‘listen’ to emerging health issues to discover the dense nutrition our bodies need.
