Why nothing worked for my menopause symptoms, until I fixed the right hormone
A calm, lived-experience guide for women in perimenopause and menopause who feel exhausted, anxious, inflamed, and unheard — and want clarity around the few things that truly made a difference.
I’m not a doctor, just a woman sharing what helped after years of trial and error.
What’s inside this online course
This experience centres on the four foundational shifts that changed everything for me and allowed the rest to finally fall into place.
We explore:
The missing piece that explained why nothing worked until my body felt balanced and supported
How fear, self-talk, and constant symptom-watching were keeping my nervous system under stress
How I learned to eat and move differently once my energy changed, without burnout or restriction
How helping my body feel safe enough to rest changed my sleep, my stress levels, and my overall sense of steadiness
This is a calm, lived-experience journey, not a list of rules, and not another thing to get right.
• You’re exhausted but struggle to switch off
• Anxiety, rage or overwhelm come out of nowhere
• Your sleep is broken, even when you’re tired
• Exercise leaves you depleted instead of energised
• You’re eating “clean” but gaining weight
• You feel unheard, confused, or brushed aside
• You know something is off, but can’t quite name it
I was here too.
Does any of this sound like you?
Why nothing worked for my menopause symptoms, until I fixed the right hormone
I was doing everything I was told to do for perimenopause and menopause.
I ate well.
I exercised.
I tried to sleep more.
I “managed stress.”
And yet, I felt worse — not better.
Anxious.
Exhausted but wired.
Inflamed.
Emotional.
Disconnected from the body I used to know.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not broken, and you’re not imagining it.
What finally changed everything for me was realising something no one had properly explained:
I didn’t need more estrogen.
I was estrogen dominant — and my body was crying out for balance, not more stimulation.
For me, progesterone was the foundation my body needed.
Once that support was in place, the other changes I was already making really flourished:
• I could honour the need to move my body differently
• Simpler, cleaner food began to support me instead of stressing my system
• Calming my nervous system mattered more than pushing through
• I started to notice how my inner dialogue was affecting my body
• Sleep became something I actively protected
• And I learned to advocate for myself and ask better questions
This wasn’t about a quick fix.
It was about finally understanding what my body needed in this stage of life.
I wish someone had explained this to me years earlier
This is not medical advice, it’s lived experience
I’m not a doctor, nutritionist, or hormone specialist.
I’m a woman who went through a deeply difficult time and figured out what helped me after years of confusion, trial and error, and feeling dismissed.
This course shares what worked for me, what didn’t, and what I wish I’d known sooner.
Always work alongside a qualified healthcare professional.
What this course will help you understand
This is a gentle, practical lifestyle guide for women in perimenopause and menopause who want clarity, not more conflicting advice.
Inside the course, I share what helped me stop fighting my body and start supporting it, including:
• Why common menopause advice didn’t work for me
• What estrogen dominance felt like in real life
• How I changed the way I exercised when my energy dropped
• How I simplified my diet without extremes
• Why protein, blood sugar balance and gut health mattered
• How I calmed an overloaded nervous system
• How I protected my sleep with simple routines
This isn’t about perfection.
It’s about working with your body instead of fighting it.

Why I created Relieving Menopause
I created this online course because I lost years blaming myself, thinking I wasn’t trying hard enough.
I wasn’t failing.
I just didn’t understand what my body needed anymore.
This is the guide I wish I’d had.
If it helps you feel less confused, less overwhelmed, and more supported, then it has done its job.
If this page resonated with you, trust that feeling.
You deserve understanding, support, and relief — not more confusion.
You don’t have to figure this out alone
