Functional Menopause Coach & Mental Fitness Trainer

I work with women at all ages and stages of menopause from Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) to early menopause, post-surgical menopause, peri and post-menopause.
I also help women who are having irregular periods and think they may be going through menopause, because this was me.
I went through hell and back and then came to realise through the women I have worked with over the years, that many of you are having health struggles and just want to get back to feeling great again. I get it because I was there too.
In my mid-30s, I was diagnosed with Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) which put me into a premature menopause. I have had irregular periods since my period started in my early teens, so for me that was normal.
I want you to know that irregular periods are not normal! Your period is a window into your whole health. My hormones were tanked, my fatigue was so bad I had to leave my global corporate career. I felt so unwell I had to move back in with my parents. (No offence, my parents are lovely, but can you imagine!)
So this is why I do what I do now. I work with women like you, because when I went through this I wish I could have met myself (the me I am now). which is someone who has been through it, (I don't just understand menopause but all the caveats that come with the different paths that lead to this life transition) POI/Surgical menopause is not the same as natural peri and post menopause (Yet I know so many of you struggle in the the normal transition through peri and post menopause and I am here to help you too) I am someone who knows how to connect the dots in your healing journey, someone who can help with the mental and emotional side. I have trained and have hours of clinical experience in advanced functional testing. These are tests that really help you understand where your body is out of balance,and depleted, or if there is an underlying infection causing what looks like menopausal symptoms. Which is so important to know. You want your next 50 years to be as good if not better than where you are now and where you have been in you health.
I work with the functional medicine model. Yes, I'm well trained after a long journey to health myself. I have also worked with hundreds of women at different ages and stages of menopause, POI, surgical menopause and women who want to regulate their period. I have worked with women with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), gut and digestive issues like bloating, gas or SIBO. Women with severe nutrient deficiencies really had no idea that was a big issue for them.
