“Shaping your future years – what a great coaching post. I’m back in Japan and now feel amazing. Thank you for your research.” [Tracy, Japan]
“Shaping your future – what a great post” wrote Tracy in the MyMTâą Coaching Group. Leaving Australia behind to fulfil her dream of running a ski-lodge in Japan with hubbie was finally happening.

Who knew that there were oestrogen receptors in our pelvic floor muscles? Did you? Or did you realise when you felt your stress incontinence becoming worse when you arrived in your 50’s?

“I’m now sleeping and the visceral fat is dropping. Apparently, I’m younger too!” [Helene, Scotland]
There isn’t a lot of emphasis on exercise in the Transform Me weight loss programme.

VIDEO: Meet Wendy Sweet as she tells you about her revolutionary and refreshing approach to control of menopause symptoms.

New Research: Your belly-fat in post-menopause … and why you shouldn’t just blame your hormones.
Have you ever wondered why so many women put on belly-fat as they move through menopause into post-menopause? This so confused me at the time.
