menopause & me

I honestly think gym rings might be one of the best-kept secrets for women in midlife.
Not because they make exercises harder...
Because they make movement more accessible.
They support you when you need it.
Challenge you when you're ready.
And build strength, mobility and balance all at the same time.
My latest workout is now live, and I have a feeling this could become one of my favourite videos on the channel.
I'd love to know...
Have you ever tried suspension training or gym rings?
Or are they something you've always thought were "not for people like me"?

This one’s a big one.
I sat down with hormone expert Ilene Gardner from Wonder Womb to talk about what’s actually happening in menopause.
We covered hormones, fat gain, training, sleep, stress, supplements — and cut through a lot of confusion.
If you’ve been feeling like your body has changed and nothing makes sense anymore… this will help.

This is the kind of conversation more women need access to.

Two new videos are up today — and they’re designed to work together.
The first is a Technique / Demonstration
→ how to move properly, control, and set yourself up
The second is the Follow Along Workout
→ where you actually put it into practice
If you’re new here, start with the technique first — it makes everything else feel better (and a lot more effective).
Then jump into the workout with me.
👉 Demo: https://youtu.be/RfMVzJLIzDE
👉 Workout: https://youtu.be/QIliVHRO4Bo
This is the kind of training I’ve been using for 20+ years — and it still holds up.

One of the biggest mistakes women make after menopause is doing squats while the glutes aren’t actually working.
Result?
Quads take over.
Lower back complains.
The butt quietly disappears.
In this video I show you how to wake your glutes back up using one tiny resistance band.
Simple exercises. Huge difference.

My Secret Travel Workout — just 2 bands.
This is how I train when I’m:
• travelling
• outdoors
• short on time
• managing joints and recovery
No machines.
No noise.
No chaos.
Just smart, joint-friendly strength you can do anywhere. *(This video was scheduled to record in a Playground with Monkey Bars - Mother Nature had other ideas that day, the show must go on so was recorded indoors, Thank-you for understanding).

20 Years Later.

I made this video as an anchor — not a workout, not a promise, not a transformation.

Just an honest moment in the middle of menopause, where strength stopped looking the way it used to… and started becoming something else.

If you’re in that in-between space too, this one’s for you.

🦶 New video is live: Your Feet Are Changing
We talk a lot about hips, core and posture in menopause…
but your feet quietly carry the load.
If you’ve noticed:
• toes drifting
• balance feeling off
• stiffness, fatigue or weird new aches
You’re not imagining it — and it’s not “just ageing.”
In today’s video, I walk you through:
✔ why feet change in menopause
✔ how footwear plays a role
✔ simple ways to support toe alignment, balance & strength
✔ and how small changes at the feet can affect everything above them
This one’s gentle, practical, and very doable at home.
Start here if your body’s been feeling a little less grounded lately.
