Menopause and Motherhood | Perimenopause support, weight loss, quick workouts, home education tips for busy mums
Welcome to Menopause and Motherhood – the empowering podcast created especially for menopausal mums who are ready to reclaim their health, confidence, and sanity… all while managing the beautiful chaos of family life – including homeschooling.
Navigating menopause is a journey, and when you’re also supporting your children’s education at home, it can feel like you’re juggling a hundred things at once. But this phase of life is also a powerful opportunity to embrace change, prioritise your well-being, and rediscover the version of yourself that’s been tucked away under the to-do lists.
I’ll guide you through my simple 3-step process to help you lose weight and start feeling like you again – focusing on the three core pillars: rest, fuel, and move.
🌙 Rest: Because when you’re educating at home and dealing with sleep disturbances, burnout is real. We’ll explore practical tips to improve your sleep, manage stress, and restore balance – so you can show up fully for your family and yourself.
🍏 Fuel: You’ll learn how to nourish your body with realistic, hormone-supportive nutrition that works around family meals and homeschooling routines.
🏃 Move: Let’s make movement simple, effective, and even enjoyable – with routines that can fit around your day, whether you’ve been teaching maths or chasing toddlers.
Join me for expert interviews, real-life stories, and practical advice that speaks directly to where you are – in the midst of menopause, motherhood, and maybe even math lessons.
Subscribe to “Menopause and Motherhood” today – because thriving through menopause and homeschooling isn’t just possible – it’s powerful.
