Jacqui Sechiari: Rediscover you - Menopause

10/02/2026

BIG NEWS! As of today, I am proud to announce that I’m a Trainee Mental Health & Exercise Coach!

I have decided to invest in myself and undertake ‘s Award in Mental Health & Exercise Coaching, as a commitment to helping make you, my loyal followers, happier, healthier and more confident than ever before.

The will allow me to educate all of you on how you can use exercise as a tool to improve all aspects of your life, whether that be work, personal relationships or inner confidence.

Rather than just using exercise as a tool to look good, I’m going to show you how you can use exercise to FEEL good.

Have you ever wondered why you’ve never been able to find a form of exercise you love or adhere to your nutrition goals?

Have body image goals left up making you feel even more frustrated and demoralised?

Has your fitness journey ended up making you feel guilty rather than bursting with pride?

It’s because other fitness programmes or PT’s may not have been able to discover your ‘real why’ – something that I’m going to be able to help you do.

There are 7 dimensions of health: physical, emotional, intellectual, social, spiritual, environmental and occupational.

Rather than just focussing on the physical (only 14%), I’m going to be giving you the whole 100%!

Please keep an eye on everything I’m posting over the coming months as I take you on my journey to becoming a certified Mental Health & Exercise Coach and please reach out for my support if you ever need it.

In the meantime, if exercising to FEEL good rather than just look good is something that interests you, please comment ‘Yes!’ below and I’ll happily give you some free advice.

It’s World Menopause Day today and the theme this year is HRT (hormone replacement therapy). Also known as MHT (menopause hormone therapy) in other countries.
There has been lots of confusion and controversy over the years about HRT so I’m going to give you a few resources to use from trusted sources.

HRT is not always the magic cure. Some women can’t take it. Some don’t want to. Some can’t tolerate it. For some it doesn’t help.

It can help alongside other lifestyle changes and for some it is just what is needed to get women off the floor and feeling well enough to actually live their lives again.

We are all different. There is not one answer for everyone. You need to find what works for you. Don’t be ashamed to ask for help. You are not a failure if you turn to HRT.

For me, it definitely helped my relationship with my kids and husband.

Please advocate for yourselves.

This is a good but disturbing watch. Finally the “meno-washing” gets discussed (which makes my blood boil!) but I do hope that women are not put off asking for medical help or using HRT.
There are many brilliant UK doctors out there that will give fantastic advice and treatment. Don’t let this put you off.

What women need is collaboration so that they can avoid confusion. This doctor’s sentence just sums it up for me.

They believed Dr Newson had changed the face of menopause care “for the better” - but they wished she would “pause and reflect, accept help and collaborate for the overall better health of women going forward”

Have you watched it? Tell me what you think.

Menopause workouts are trending!!

There is no such thing though. Who says you have to workout in a certain way because we are going through menopause???

Yes there are things to consider such as
💪 your goals
💪 your symptoms
💪 your recovery

But symptoms can change. Your goals might change. So your workouts can change.

But don’t let anyone tell you that a certain type of exercise is not for you because you are menopausal. We are badass women. We can adapt. We can change. We can grow. We can do anything.

You do you. 💪💪💪💪
