Generally as we age our metabolism slows, for women menopause causes changes in our hormones and how we metabolize and store excess energy (fat)

This is why one of the signs of menopause is that extra weight appearing around our middle-thanks Menopause fairy!

Unfortunately, if this is not addressed, it can lead to more serious conditions such as Metabolic Syndrome (MetS)

Podcaster Bio

Hey, I’m Rebecca I am a Menopause Coach, Nutritional Therapist, and qualified Personal Trainer and  I am passionate about empowering women to be healthy and take charge of their wellbeing and menopause transition

As a teen I contracted Hepatitis which damaged the way I digested fat in my diet, I spent the next 15 years suffering from daily heartburn and acid and constantly took antacids, until quite by accident I discovered the key to stop my daily discomfort.... DIET

How I ate cured my condition and sparked a thirst for more knowledge, so I decided to gain a Nutritional Therapy qualification in January 2011 so I could pass on my knowledge and help others, specifically women.

I qualified as a Personal Trainer in 2018 and many of my clients were women in their mid 40's who started having issues with weight gain, lethargy and sleep issues and, honestly, I had no idea and nothing in my training was geared to what I now know was Peri-menopausal women

In 2019 I turned 50 and my own menopause hit me from nowhere and made me realise how uneducated and ill prepared I was, how did I not know what was coming?

I decided to educate myself and make sure I was qualified to educate and coach other women and it’s become a big passion for me to change the narrative and taboo around menopause and women’s health

My wish is for you to have an Empowered Menopause and Thrive on the Other Side
