Hi! I’m glad you’re here!
I’m Kathleen, a nurse turned health coach who helps women tackle menopause symptoms and eat intuitively as they listen to what their body truly needs.
As a nurse, health coach, and post-menopausal woman, I struggled with hormone changes big time!
Menopause showed up for me at 44 (perimenopause in my late 30s). Like many of you, I was busy with work, kids, and endless to-do lists, stressed to the max.
I didn’t realize that the first step I needed to take was slowing down and prioritizing my health.
But instead of taking care of what I truly needed, I turned to sugar and alcohol as a quick fix. The eating disorder I kicked to the curb years ago knocks at the door.
Focusing on and controlling food was a way I could succeed at something and control life’s chaos.
After making my menopause symptoms worse, I hired a health coach to help me understand my changing body. I stopped shaming myself and going on another diet as I got healthier both physically and mentally. I learned how to truly take care of myself with lifestyle changes.
I’m a registered nurse for over 24 years, a certified life and health coach and an intuitive eating counselor. Let me help you manage your menopause symptoms as you make peace with food and get off the diet-binge rollercoaster ride.
We spend more than half our life in perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause. We should not suffer through it!
When I’m not helping midlife women, you can find me…
