Welcome to my website! I'm passionate about empowering women to take charge of their health and well-being through education, support, and personalized guidance. With a diverse background spanning military service and public relations, I bring a unique perspective to the wellness community.

With over 32 years of professional experience—first in the Canadian Armed Forces followed by an extensive career in Public Relations — I made the pivotal decision to leave the corporate workforce and fully embrace a life-long passion for health, fitness, and wellness.

My personal journey through menopause, compounded by concussions and an occupational stress injury, has revealed a significant lack of credible and accessible information about women’s health, particularly in brain health and emotional trauma. The knowledge gap surrounding perimenopause and menopause not only reflects serious shortcomings in our healthcare system and workplaces but also contributes to a growing global mental health crisis. We deserve better!

Empowerment Through Education & Advocacy

Motivated by personal experiences with misogyny, confusion, and misinformation, I decided to take action. In 2022, I became a Menopause Doula through the Doula Training Centre (DTC) in Toronto, with the goal of providing education and support to women. Ironically, I hadn’t heard of menopause doulas until I haphazardly stumbled across an article in Vogue Magazine.

Recognizing that many professionals like myself might be struggling with menopause symptoms and feel too embarrassed to discuss it at work, I decided to advance my certifications. I partnered with thethe Menopause Expert Group to become a Licensed Menopause Champion.

As a MEG Champion, I advocate for menopause awareness and education in the workplace, helping corporations develop policies to effectively accommodate employees. I strive to create a supportive and inclusive culture where individuals affected by menopause can excel in their careers while feeling fully supported.

My Mission

My mission is to empower clients on their menopausal journey with confidence and dignity, equipping them with credible research and knowledge so they can advocate for their health.

Think of me as a coach in your corner and a cheerleader on the sidelines. I meet you where you are with a compassionate ear, facilitating access to essential support and resources to reduce feelings of overwhelm and confusion. I advocate for better support and easy access to accurate, credible information to guide your healthcare decisions.

Holistic Approach To Well-being

My coaching program blends menopause education with various fitness and wellness practices, including: strength training; Barre; yoga (Hatha, Vinyasa, restorative, nidra, and yoga for head injury/PTSD); and meditation.

I work witjh busy individuals who refuse to be limited by societal norms that associate menopause with career or age-related constraints. I work with individuals with a growth mindset who are motivated to take control of their health. I teach clients with a TBI, PTSD, or other injuries impacting cognitive function, including neurodivergency to cultivate a sense of resiliency through breath, movement, and mindfulness.
