Understanding the hormonal hijack

One minute you’re cruising through life and the next minute you feel like you’ve been hit by the a bus.

You have no idea how to dress for fear of when your internal thermostat might start to play chicken with the air con. You’re constantly playing the period lottery - when will it arrive this time? You feel like you’ve gained stubborn weight overnight and it just won’t budge. And you just can’t do the same things you used to be able to do.

Hello menopause. Well, technically perimenopause. But I'm not about to split hairs. Especially the ones that have just started growing out of my chin.

It’s shit. Let’s face it. Your body has been hijacked by your hormones leaving the chat. And no two women are the same. Which is why it’s so bloody hard to navigate. There is no roadmap. There isn’t even any guarantee about how long it will last.

But now it’s time to claim back some control.

Menopause coaching

I work with women to help them understand where they can make changes that will have a positive impact on where they are now. Our bodies are different so what you do has to change. My coaching options include:

  • Personalised one-to-one coaching to identify key changes to make that will have the greatest impact for you.

  • Strength or endurance programming to adapt your training to match your body’s needs as our hormones decline.

  • This is a highly personalised service that has us working side-by-side to identify the best strategies to your changing body. Fortnightly calls, regular check ins and updates, workout and nutrition planning and more.

  • I focus on a training approach that is backed by research into peri and post menopausal women. I deliver programmes and plans weekly, with regular follow ups and feedback opportunities to adapt the plan as you go.
