What Should I Do After Menopause?
You’ve crossed the threshold—12 months without a period. Technically, you’re now considered post menopause. But instead of feeling “done,” many women ask: Now what? What are you supposed to do next?
The truth is, post menopause isn’t an ending—it’s an opportunity to realign, rebuild, and reimagine how you want to feel in your body and life.

This Is a New Chapter—Not the Final One
Menopause was a transition, but what comes after holds just as much potential. It’s a time where you may feel physically and emotionally different. You might be:
  • Still feeling symptoms like fatigue, anxiety, or low motivation
  • Wondering if your hormones are truly balanced yet
  • Feeling disoriented without the monthly rhythm you’ve known for decades
  • Ready to stop coping and start creating
If that’s you—you’re not alone. And you’re in the perfect place to take stock and begin gently rebuilding.

What to Expect in Early Post Menopause
While hormone levels begin to settle, your body may still need time to find its rhythm. You might notice:
  • Some symptoms improve, others plateau or change in intensity
  • Shifts in digestion, stress response, or energy regulation
  • A sense of emotional recalibration—questioning your identity, purpose, and what truly lights you up now
There’s no rush to feel a certain way or hit a wellness milestone. What matters most is starting the process of tuning back in.

First Steps to Take After Menopause
Here’s how to ground yourself in this next phase:
 
Reflect on What You Want to Feel
Ask: What would “well” look like for me now? What have I outgrown—mentally, physically, or emotionally?
 
Review Your Foundations
Blood sugar balance, gut health, adrenal support, stress bandwidth—these are the pillars that will carry you forward.
This is a great time to do a functional health review, kinesiology session, or lab testing to check where your system needs extra support.
 
Create Space, Not Pressure
This isn’t about “bouncing back.” It’s about moving forward gently, with support. It might start with an earlier bedtime, a quieter walk, or a clearer boundary.

A Gentle Guide to Support You
If you’ve recently transitioned from perimenopause and you’re still feeling unsure of what your body is asking for, my book, “Am I Menopausal?”, was written for this very moment.

It not only helps you understand the rollercoaster you’ve just ridden—it lays the groundwork for feeling stronger, steadier, and more like yourself as you enter this new phase of life.

✨ You can find it here and start reconnecting to your next chapter with clarity and calm.

What Comes Next?
Now that you’ve taken your first few steps, it’s time to look at the bigger picture: how to stay strong, healthy and energised in your post menopause years.

That’s what we’ll explore in the next blog in this series. You deserve support that evolves with you.

Meet Jo

For over 40 years, I’ve been helping people like you take charge of their health with a calm, caring, and supportive approach. Clients (and friends) often say I’m a great listener and highly knowledgeable — qualities I bring to every session to ensure you feel understood, empowered, and on the right path to feeling better.

My passion for wellness started young. When I was 9, my mum was diagnosed with bladder cancer, which shaped my understanding of how deeply health challenges affect not just the individual but their entire family. Watching her recover through a long journey — navigating major surgery, menopause, and a stoma — taught me how important it is to support the whole person: body, mind, and emotions.

This experience has fuelled my lifelong mission to uncover what keeps us feeling our best. 

Working with me means learning how to:
  • Balance your blood sugars with nourishing foods tailored to your needs.
  • Reduce stressors — from food intolerances to emotional triggers.
  • Support your hormones, including those that regulate energy, mood, and digestion.
  • Improve gut health and build a thriving microbiome.
  • Strengthen your immune system for resilience.
  • Prioritize rest and relaxation for better energy and well-being.
Why Work with Me?
I understand how overwhelming health struggles can feel. Whether you’re navigating hormonal changes, dealing with persistent pain, or feeling like nothing is working, I’ll provide natural, practical solutions tailored to you. My approach isn’t about quick fixes — it’s about finding lasting answers and helping you build them into daily life.

My process also complements medical treatments, giving you tools and strategies to feel empowered while supporting your body’s natural healing ability.

What you need to know
I’m not just a therapist, I’m a listener, a teacher, and someone who’s walked alongside many clients on their health journeys. I believe in combining the best of science and holistic practices to help you feel your best.

On a personal note, I’m a wife, a mother to 2 beautiful girls, and a proud pet parent to Kiko the cat and Maisie the dog. Just like you, I know how busy life can get, which is why I’m here to make taking care of your health feel achievable and rewarding.
