15 years post-diagnosis. ❤️

If I could go back and speak to the 23-year-old version of myself, when my POI symptoms first began, I'd tell her:

Listen to your body. You know it best. Don't give up on what you believe.

It took four years from my first symptoms to my POI diagnosis. Since then, I've navigated my own infertility journey, experienced the challenges of early menopause and eventually started HRT.

Life has brought its own twists and turns, and I've learned so much along the way.

Fifteen years later, I'm still learning, still finding my voice and using my experiences to help other women feel heard, understood and less alone.

I can't change my journey, but I can share what I've learned.

Believe yourself. Ask questions. Keep advocating for yourself. You deserve to be heard. ❤️

I am proud to support World POI Day on the 25th October.
Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) affects 4 in 100 women under 40, yet many people
have never heard of it. By raising awareness, we can help encourage earlier diagnosis, improve
understanding and ensure nobody faces POI alone.

💗 14 DAYS OF STRONG BONES! 💗

It's **World Osteoporosis Day** , and inspired by yesterday's conversations at the event I've an idea!

We're often so busy looking after everyone else that we forget about ourselves and our future health.

So, let's change that! 💪

I'm inviting you to join me for 14 Days of Strong Bones with The Cycle Wellness Academy.

✨ You decide how many squats you do, based on your own ability.
✨ No competition. No comparison. No pressure.
✨ Just a little commitment to yourself and your future health.

Want to join in?

👇 Comment I'M IN 💗 below and I'll send you the challenge rules and links to some online squat demonstrations to help you get started.

You don't need to be super fit, and you don't need to keep up with anyone else. Start where you are, listen to your body and let's encourage each other along the way.

We're investing in the women we'll be in 10, 20 or 30 years!

Who's with me? ❤️

World Menopause Day 2026 | Part 2 💜

Years after my POI diagnosis, I felt like my body was crumbling. Aches, pain, anxiety and so many unanswered questions.

Why hadn't anyone explained the long-term impact on my health?

I'm sharing my story because women deserve to be heard, informed and supported.

❤️ Listen to your body. Ask questions. Advocate for yourself.

You matter. Your health matters. And you are worth listening to.

World Menopause Day 2026 | Part 1 ❤️

I knew my own body. I knew something wasn't right. But I didn't feel listened to.

In my 20s, I was diagnosed with Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI). The word failure hit hard.

My journey to motherhood wasn't straightforward, but I kept going, and eventually, I got my boy. 🩵

But my story didn't end there…

Part 2 is coming. Because women's health is about so much more than fertility.

❤️ World Menopause Day 2026

I knew something wasn't right. I knew my own body. But I didn't feel listened to.

In my early 20s, I was diagnosed with Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI). I understood the impact it could have on my fertility, but there was so much more I didn't know about the impact on my long-term health.

Years later, I found myself asking questions I wish I'd been given answers to much earlier.

This is my story. It's personal, it's honest, and it's a story I want to share because I know I'm not the only woman who's struggled to be heard.

I'm sharing the full story with you for World Menopause Day.

In the meantime, please remember: listen to your body, ask questions and advocate for yourself. You matter. ❤️

💜 Some evenings stay with you long after they end. 💜

Today’s Women’s Circle was one of those special experiences. An afternoon of connection, reflection and sharing, surrounded by women who showed up just as they were.

A heartfelt thank you to Jana from Evidence of Essence for guiding us on such a beautiful journey. Your warmth, wisdom and gentle guidance helped create space for something truly special. ✨

To every woman who joined us today, thank you for your openness, for sharing a little of yourselves and for connecting with such kindness and love. Together, you created a safe, welcoming space where women could feel heard, supported and connected. 🥰

And a big thank you to Solas Family Resource Centre for providing such a warm, inviting environment for us to gather. Having a space where women feel comfortable and welcome makes such a difference. 💕

Today was a beautiful reminder of what can happen when women come together without judgement or pressure, with a willingness to listen, share and support one another.

Real women. Honest conversations. Meaningful connections. 💜

This is what the Headford Menopause Café is all about, and I feel very grateful to everyone who helped make today so special.

🌸 Our next Headford Menopause Café is Tuesday 3rd November, when we’ll welcome Breast Cancer Ireland for another evening of connection, conversation and learning.

Everyone welcome. Free event. Tickets on Eventbrite

💜 All Headford Menopause Café events are free to attend. They are about bringing women together, sharing experiences, learning from one another and building connections in our community.

If you feel moved, my chosen charity this week is to support the wonderful work of Solas Family Resource Centre, donations are always appreciated and help support the work they do in our community. There is absolutely no obligation, but if you would like to contribute, you can do so here:
