Founder of The Menopause Club

Born in 1970, post menopausal, she/her, punk rocker, singer, songwriter, mermaid, runner, ADHDer, rookie gardener, rebel with a cause, menopause coach, holistic masseur, can't sit still, loud, passionate about menopause education and support, married to Lisa.

I came up with the idea some time ago when I became frustrated at the lack of support there was available. My GP didn't have the training and lacked to link my symptoms to menopause. The Corporate World I worked in couldn't handle me. Even I couldn't handle me because I had no idea what was happening. Over a period of time, my life went from very successful, very confident and in control to a very big hot mess. I lost my job.

My story is not unique, it is in fact, shockingly, very "cookie-cutter" common. I've now managed to gather all the lovely pieces of me together again and am stronger than ever. I have completed my internationally recognised Menopause Coaching Certification and am also a qualified holistic masseur focussing on deep relaxation techniques.

My mission is to build a community and to create a safe and supportive space for all people going through menopause. This is a safe space without judgement, without shame, a place to learn, a place to scream, a place to explore your menopausal creativity, a place to gain understanding of what is happening to your body, your mind and how to improve your mental and physical wellbeing throughout your journey.
