Relatable. Kind hearted. Wahine Toa

As a Certified Health & Wellness Coach since 2020 and recently a Certified Menopause Practitioner, 2025, I support women through the menopause transition by guiding them in lifestyle and behaviour changes to enhance their wellbeing.

I AM a Mum, partner, step-Mum, daughter, sister, Aunty, a friend to many, a lover of music, books and good kai.

Now 49 years, and my own personal journey through perimenopause has been fraught with highs and lows. My experience through the first two years of perimenopause was ‘the perfect storm’ and my Dr at the time, had not diagnosed me as having perimenopausal symptoms. I suffered with anxiety, fatigue and I wondered where my happiness and strength had disappeared too.

And so I started on a journey and went searching for holistic answers for anxiety and my perimenopause symptoms for my mental and physical wellbeing. I began to prioritise my health and wellness through nutrition, exercise/movement, practices such as meditation/breath work and found healing through lifestyle behaviour changes. Along the way, I gained a deeper appreciation for my self care and self awareness. Diving into my physical and emotional wellbeing has inspired me to support and educate other women navigating similar paths.

Chances are, you’re here because you too have been searching for answers that resonate with YOU ♡

As a Coach, my role is to ask the right questions, listen, impart some of my knowledge and guide you towards your own answers.

My offering comes from a combination of lived experience, life skills and working within the NZ Health System as a Health & Wellness Coach, supporting men & woman since 2020.

I AM also a proud Maori/New Zealander, from Ahipara, Te Rarawa & Te Aupouri. Raised in Auckland, worked in TV and media, corporate Wellington, returning to run my own business in Auckland, before making a sea-change to Tairua, Coromandel, five years ago.

My greatest wish is to empower women on their own journey to wellbeing and freedom ♡
