Although I’ve been a nurse for many years, when I hit menopause at 44 (after years of perimenopause in my late 30s), I felt lost. I was exhausted, overwhelmed, and juggling everything—work, kids, life. So, I did what so many women do: I pushed through, relied on sugar and wine to cope, and tried to “eat clean” all day… only to overeat at night.

The dieting, the guilt, the shame — it only made things worse!

I know what it’s like to feel out of control around food, to crave sugar and carbs, to wonder why your body suddenly feels like the enemy.

And I know what it’s like to use food as the one thing you can control when everything else feels impossible.

But here’s what I learned: Your body isn’t broken. You don’t need more willpower. And you definitely don’t need another diet.

Once I worked with a health coach, everything changed. I stopped punishing myself with food rules, learned what my body actually needed, and let go of dieting for good.

Now, as a menopause coach and intuitive eating counselor, I help other women do the same!

You won’t just manage your menopause symptoms and break free from food struggles. You will reclaim your confidence, energy, and peace of mind.

You don’t need more guilt and restriction. You need a sustainable way to feel good in your body again. Let’s work together to make that happen!
