Testimonials

“My first perimenopause symptoms showed up in my starting to have significant gut issues. I was referred to a specialist who over the course of a year did every test under the sun. He couldn’t find anything untoward and eventually said he didn’t know what was causing my issues. No-one ever mentioned menopause. It was from then on that I started to gain weight. Over the next decade despite not eating differently (therein lay the problem) I gained 17kgs. During that time my physical symptoms started to arrive with a vengeance. The 3am wakeup, hot flushes, brain fog, mood swings and the symptom I found most distressing aching joints and plantar fasciitis. I was always so sore so gave up going to the gym, the thing that had been keeping me in a good head space. Thank goodness I then found Wendy and the My MT programme, and everything started to change for me. Slowly! I have always been someone who needed to know the “why” before I would do something and the depth of Wendy’s “why” on so many things was a breath of fresh air. I made changes slowly in line with Wendy’s research-based information and things started to improve. Firstly, my sleep. I finally started to feel that I was in control of this transition which I now understood. I started to realise that I didn’t have to accept that this was how I was always going to feel and I didn’t need to let the old woman in. I also knew I didn’t have to follow anything to the letter – the 80/20 rule was quite a relief! I frequently fell off the wagon of my good habits, but I didn’t beat myself up about it, I just picked myself up and got back on track. I left my busy corporate role and went searching for how my life could look different. I re-joined the gym and found yoga and opened a real-fruit ice-cream stand. Today, I am excited to jump out of bed every morning. My joint pains are gone; my feet are still a work in progress but improving and finally I have started to lose weight – 7kgs in the past year so far and I’m starting to feel good again. I really don’t think I would be in the great space I am if I hadn’t found Wendy and her programme. Thank you Wendy. “

“My menopause transition was helped tremendously by the information and strategies provided by both the Circuit Breaker course and then the Practitioner course. In 6 months I started losing weight and reducing my joint pain. In one year my weight is back down to pre-menopause weight and my sore joints much improved. My life is so much improved from the education I received from Dr. Wendy! I highly recommend her courses.”

“The changes I made when I first joined were the only things that worked in years to get me sleeping and losing weight again. I’m excited to continue!”

“Thank you for your hard work and dedication to your programmes. I think they are so incredibly valuable and I have been singing your praises since I first started with your Transform Me programme. I cannot tell you how many people asked me what I had been doing. With gratitude, Natalie”

““I thoroughly enjoyed completing the My Menopause Transformation Practitioner Coach course. The content was clear, practical, and grounded in a truly holistic understanding of women’s health. As a former nurse now working as a hormone health coach, I really appreciated the approach—it covered a comprehensive model including lifestyle, nutrition, stress, sleep, movement, and herbal supports, alongside natural and body-identical options. The course deepened my understanding of how female hormones influence different aspects of health, as well as the impact of the stress response and HPA Axis. It reinforced for me that while hormonal support can be helpful, it’s not a cure-all, whether women choose to use hormones or not, sustainable lifestyle changes are essential. Supporting women to understand modifiable risk factors is key to helping them take charge of their long-term health. I now feel even more confident supporting women through menopause with a balanced, informed, and compassionate approach. I would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to deepen their understanding or support women in this space.” “

“Thanks for the opportunity to join Beyond Menopause. It has been so worthwhile, filled with connection, content, community and comprehensive offerings. I’ll continue to highly recommend MyMT far and wide, as I truly believe you are the expert in this challenging landscape.”

“Dr Wendy Sweet’s course has been incredibly helpful in building my knowledge and confidence around menopause support. I loved the balance of evidence-based information, practical lifestyle strategies, and clear guidance around scope of practice. Wendy teaches in a way that is warm, professional, and easy to understand. I’ve come away feeling much better equipped to support women with knowledge, compassion and confidence. Thank you so much Wendy!”

“Wendy’s courses for Health Coaches and Practitioners, are always so informative and backed by research. For me , the Weight Loss Level 2 course, was particularly interesting as it included information on GLP-1 drugs which are being used more and more by women to lose weight. I wanted to understand how they work and the risks when used with HRT. This course has given me really useful additional knowledge around menopause weight loss for Coaches, much of which I have gained from Wendy’s brilliantly curated courses. I would highly recommend it.”

““I completed the MyMT Transform Me programme back in 2020 and it changed my life, starting with getting a full night’s sleep, losing weight and getting back to the activities I love to do. But life happens and I found I needed both hips replaced; activity levels inevitably dwindled due to increasing discomfort and then, in 2025, I had both hips replaced. That’s when I joined Wendy’s Beyond Menopause programme, and with her advice about tweaking nutrition and the evidenced bone health advice and women’s healthy ageing in that programme, I’m slowly building up to doing my activities again, and also taking up some new ones, including my first pottery session! As Wendy mentions in her programme, it’s good to challenge yourself from the brain down to the feet as we age – l love learning new things!””

“It’s been such a learning curve working through your course and material and I cannot thank you enough for all you do to bring top quality research and lifestyle support. It’s truly made such a difference. It’s a year since I found you and my experience of menopause has improved significantly. So thank you. “

“I am so happy I joined your Transform Me programme. I am feeling healthier already and I love eating all the plant based protein. I have changed my breakfast routine and am now back drinking green tea in the afternoon. I’m sleeping well now and my stomach does not feel so hard. I have lost some weight around my hips and stomach. I just feel lighter. I am loving all the modules. They are all so interesting, make sense and are informative. Many, many thanks for developing this programme. “

“I have a few weeks ago started your Beyond Menopause programme and it has just been amazing seeing and feeling the changes in my body already. My achy knees have gone, less swelling in ankles , no bloating and I lost 3kg (not intentionally currently 57kg which I haven’t been for years ). Also the change mentally feeling like I have control over my body again and most importantly an understanding of the changes in my body and what it needs. ’m so thankful I started the programme. I didn’t so much struggle with going through menopause, it was more post menopause I struggled with. I’m excited to finish the whole 12 weeks. “

“Your programme was a life saver! A friend recommended you. I was on HRT patch, had gain 14kgs, feeling miserable, bloated, tired, and felt I’d lost myself. I had been to my Doctor, about how I was feeling and the weight gain, and had a blood test as you suggested, and was low in ferritin. I was also oestrogen dominant, my liver must have been struggling as I was on the Keto diet. So, I ditched the HRT patches with my Doctor’s permission and focused on your programme and almost felt better overnight. The weight is coming off, sleep is better, and I adhere to the time of day eating principles. I have very few menopause symptoms now. Thank you for my programme. I tell all my friends about it.”

“I’m finally starting to feel like myself again. I have learnt so much about how our body changes during menopause and because of your knowledge and wonderful programme I feel I have the tools now to get through those huge challenges. I just wanted to say thank you and I’m enjoying the program immensely. I’m starting to understand why I’ve been feeling the way I have been and I’m making the changes recommended for this time of my life. Have a wonderful day and thank you again for your support and help “

“Wendy’s Menopause Practitioner Course fundamentally changed my life. I applied all of the solutions to myself, and It taught me that health is not about restriction, punishment, or chasing a number on the scales, but about nourishment, strength, balance, and sustainability. I learned how to truly care for my body, work with my hormones, and build habits that support long-term health, confidence, and vitality. In a world full of social media hype and conflicting advice about menopause, it was refreshing to learn from science-backed, evidence-based research that truly makes sense.”

” I have really enjoyed the 2 programmes and am very grateful for what it has done for me. Before starting them, I had lost myself, lost joy in everything, no motivation, joint issues, fatigue, something just felt different, and I didn’t know why. I’ve always been a healthy person and minded what I ate and exercised a lot. But my joint issues were troubling me. I’m now enjoying the food plan and while I always exercised the Rebuild my Fitness module gave me direction and a focus, something to work on and slowly I am finding myself again. I haven’t had any joint issues now in the last while since joining your programme but the main thing is I now feel in control and stronger. I hear your voice in my head with your nuggets of information all the time. It’s like having a constant life coach at my side. I would really, really like to thank you not just for alleviating the physical symptoms of menopause but for giving me back hope. Thank you Wendy. “

“I want to say that I found your….presentation style? No, it’s more than that….. your energy, I guess (in the sense of vibe or aura, rather than in the other more mainstream sense), really….supportive – wise, nurturing, positive, caring…. and I’m looking forward to experiencing some more of that in your Beyond Menopause programme. “

“I have been reading and listening to the various modules and have found a ton of info. You are definitely right when we have to start over with new eating plans and try to forget the past way of eating. I’m looking forward to this journey and enjoying having the “aha” moments from the modules so far. Finally someone understands what we have been going through. So Wendy, I admire you for taking this huge task on and providing women like me to have some answers. “
