Hello, I thought it might be time to properly introduce myself.
My name is Tammy — a Registered Nutritional Therapist specialising in women’s hormone health, particularly perimenopause and menopause.
But before all of that… I’m also a single Mum, a Frenchie owner (if you know you know), a woman dealing with perimenopause, and someone who knows what it feels like to be dismissed when you know something in your body has changed.
I started my periods at 14 and they were always heavy and painful.
At the time, I thought that was normal. Most of us did.
By my early 30s things seemed to improve a little, and then I had my son at 35.
But afterwards, my hormones never really settled, which seems pretty cruel.
From around 37 onwards, my periods became even heavier, more unpredictable, and I just didn’t feel like myself anymore. Looking back now, it seems obvious that I was entering perimenopause… but at the time I was repeatedly told I was “too young.”
I still remember one doctor telling me he would “eat his hat” if it had anything to do with hormones.
And I think so many women know this feeling:
Knowing something is different in your body… while simultaneously being made to doubt yourself.
Next month, I’ll reach 12 months without a period after four years of intermittent cycles, hormonal changes, and learning to understand my body in a completely different way.
That personal experience is a huge part of why I do the work I do today.
I’m passionate about helping women understand that symptoms are not “all in your head” and that health in midlife is not about punishment or pushing harder.
So whether you’re here because of exhaustion, anxiety, brain fog, sleep struggles, heavy periods, weight changes, or simply because you don’t quite feel like yourself anymore… welcome.
I’m really glad you’re here.
And I’d love to know — did you have a moment where you realised your body had been trying to tell you something all along?
