A little belated Easter post from my home 🐰🌷
The decor went up on time, but life did what life does and the photo made it to the camera roll before it made it here 😄
Soft spring touches, a few bunnies tucked around the house, and just enough pastel to make everything feel a bit brighter and lighter. Even though Easter has passed, I’m still loving the calm, cozy spring vibe it brought into the space.
Better late than never for a little seasonal appreciation 💛🌸

REGISTRATION IS OPEN! SPACE IS LIMITED
Over the 12 weeks we will discuss critical menopause-specific topics like… with weekly FB Live on Sundays
o Hot flushes and night sweats
o Low energy and fatigue
o Bladder and pelvic floor issues
o Joint pain and stiffness
o Headaches and brain fog
o Mood swings, anxiety, and depression
So many women feel like they’re going crazy when they experience:
➡ Weight gain, especially belly fat
➡ Hot flashes
➡ Brain fog
➡ Vaginal dryness (yes, we’re going there)
➡ Incontinence (everyone is peeing themselves, no bother)
➡ Sleepless nights
And more
Most of us didn’t even know these symptoms were linked to menopause, let alone how to combat these effects, especially the sudden weight gain, until now.
There is a very simple reason women gain belly weight during menopause
(And, there’s an even SIMPLER solution to get rid of this fat)
Whenever you start losing your menstrual cycle, your body cries out: “NO!” and tries to cling to the estrogen, for some God-awful reason. Your body isn’t ready to stop cranking out eggs, so it turns to the second biggest source for estrogen: Fat cells.
This is what then happens, my dear, fallopian-tubed friend
Starting menopause means your estrogen levels drop. So your body turns to it’s secondary source of estrogen – fat cells.
Your body actually creates insulin resistance in your cells so that more of the calories you eat are diverted to fat stores. Because the more fat you have, the more estrogen your body will produce.
SUMMARY: About 40% more glucose is being sent to your menopausal cells for fat storage, which you then see on your belly as you pull on jeans in the morning.
That is why women in menopause need a whole new way of eating, that is shockingly simple.
I am about to finally reveal my step-by-step plan that YES, will drop up to 40 pounds fat in just 12 weeks depending on how much fat you have to lose.
You do not have to starve yourself. We’re in the prime of our lives and don’t want to be hungry all the time.
We are busy women who want to enjoy life AND feel incredible in our bodies again.
This is a super simple lifestyle plan anyone can follow. You can take this with you to stay slim and trim the rest of your non-period-no-more-tampons life.
Principles-Based Nutrition
Rather than count macros or calories, I’ll share the 5 incredibly easy principles any woman can use and implement easily, anywhere. You still get a glass of red wine a night and a way to eat your favorite food weekly.
At-Home Workouts
These are low-impact, efficient workouts with bands and dumbbells, designed for busy women. They can be done 5 days a week or at your convenience
Supplement Guide & Recipe Book
I have created a digital book of delicious recipes that pull from the 5 nutrition principles. There’s no macro or calorie counting ever again (hallelujah!) From now on, just follow the principles and fill your face.
Private Facebook Community
Many women feel alone in their menopausal journey, even with their friends who also don’t know what’s happening to them. This is a community where we go into what’s happening to our bodies, share questions & get mutual support & accountability. Coaches are in the group answering questions daily
No menopausal woman has to feel overweight, overwhelmed or drained anymore. This plan will change everything.
You’ve done so much for others. Are you ready to feel incredible again and refuel energy for your own body?
