“What a difference a year makes!” (Hil, New Zealand)

The year has flown by and what a surprise I got when Hil emailed me last week. She reminded me that it’s been a year since she came on board into the MyMT™ programme. We often look forward to ‘new beginnings’ during mid-life and Hil is a great example of this! That’s why I wanted […]
If Menopause night sweats are keeping you awake, then discover why.

The email arrived in my inbox this week. Amanda had listened to my Masterclass on Menopause and reached out – “Is there anything I can do about my sweating? I sweat in the morning, I sweat at night and when I go out. I’m on all sorts of herbs to help me.” Night sweats are […]
“I feel amazing still. Finally we had a wedding after being in lockdown for so long!” [Leann, Australia]

It was a just over a year ago that I did a shout-out to Essential Workers who have had to face a most challenging year and I got in touch with Leann, in Queensland, Australia. She completed the MyMT™ programme in late 2019, so I caught up with her to see how she was getting on. […]
The impact of menopause depression on your stress eating and weight gain.

Depression affects up to 25% of women at some time in their lives. Some of it is serious. Some of it is mild. What’s known is that it affects far more women than men and peri-menopause is a vulnerable time, especially if women have already experienced depression in their life and/or post-partum depression. I’ve been talking […]
“I am still going great. I sleep well at night and I don’t get hot flushes like I used to.” (Sandra, NZ)

Sandra emailed me out of the blue after reading last week’s newsletter about women’s health and ageing and ‘New Beginnings’. She had some questions to ask, so I answered them but asked a question back. “How are you getting on 2 years on from doing the MyMT™ programme?” I wrote. “I’m going great” Sandra said. […]
“I’m doing very well and finally free of the weight on my mind about my weight!” Romany Romany.

It was over a year ago that I wrote about Romany Romany, Magician, Entertainer and Believer of all things ‘magic’ and introduced you to her. At the time, I had emailed her curious about whether I was using her name correctly. It seemed a bit odd that she had the same surname as her first […]
Pass (up) the butter: How naturally occurring hormones in food could spike your menopause symptoms

She was sitting in the front row of one of my UK seminars a couple of years ago. It was a bit distracting having her there because I could tell from her folded arms and her body language that she was grumpy. She looked very trim and fit but quite young (as in around 40ísh). […]
New Research: Find your lockdown love for antiviral functional foods and the right exercise during menopause.

“Good morning from the UK. Sorry to hear some of you are in Lockdown in Australia and New Zealand, but I can assure you it’s worth it. I’m in day 10 from contracting the virus and it’s really unpleasant. I’m thankful I’ve been double jabbed. I didn’t really suffer with hot flushes but I am […]
“It’s amazing when you have so much in common how it feels like you’re catching up with old friends.” [Pam, NZ]

That’s Pam, second from the right. She was the instigator of a coffee and catch-up with women living near her, who are on the MyMT™ programme. I’m so pleased that they were able to meet before New Zealand went back into lockdown. Pam posted the photo in my private coaching group, saying “ It’s amazing […]
