Clarity and calm guidance, when women’s health stories are too often rushed, reduced or dismissed.
I work at the intersection of menopause, cancer, voice, and lived experience — helping women, workplaces, and health-adjacent organisations move from silence and confusion to clarity, confidence, and meaningful change.
Especially when menopause follows cancer treatment, clarity matters.
So does being heard.
This work isn’t about shouting louder.
It’s about creating space for the conversations that actually shift outcomes.
I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 47.
My treatment pushed me into sudden, medically-induced menopause — with little preparation, limited information, and a deep sense of identity loss I wasn’t warned about.
What followed was not just physical change, but a reckoning:
with my body,
with the health system,
with the way women are expected to quietly “cope”.
I realised how many women were navigating the same terrain — isolated, under-informed, and expected to manage profound change without adequate support.
I chose not to stay silent.
Why this work matters
I didn’t arrive here through theory alone.
What I bring to the room
I’m a speaker, podcaster, facilitator and advocate — but more importantly, I’m someone who knows how to hold space without rushing to fix.
My work blends:
lived experience of cancer and menopause
evidence-informed health communication
years of speaking, facilitating and teaching
a grounded, calm leadership style that allows difficult conversations to land safely.
I don’t perform expertise.
I create conditions where understanding can emerge — and where people leave with language, perspective, and confidence they didn’t have before.
