Alison loves working with tired busy working women who are trying to balance work, family and a personal life. Seeing these amazing women move from grumpy, exhausted and frustrated with their body, to energetic and getting back their spark, is an exciting way to spend the day. As a busy working woman herself, Alison knows only too well how challenging this can be at times. Using a combination of well tested, scientifically based, herbal, nutrient, diet and lifestyle changes, she has formulated The Revitalisation Project and The Weight Reset Program - both 12 week programs to support even more women to get their spark back.

She told herself it wasn’t that bad. That other women cope with worse. That this was just part of getting older.
Until one day, her period soaked through her clothes at work, and suddenly, the story changed.
Heavy, flooding periods that appear in perimenopause aren’t a weakness. They’re often a sign of shifting hormones and changing ovulation patterns.
Coping quietly doesn’t mean nothing’s wrong. It just means the body hasn’t been listened to yet.

Yes I know I’m late to the 2016 trend. And honestly, I wasn’t going to bother but then took a look at my photos from that year - it was an exhausting one. And this first photo is the only one of me on my own! My first baby, studying, no sleep for the last 6 months of the year, post natal anxiety, back to work. It was all too much. So I recognise the signs, I work on having balance (yes it’s always a work in progress, definitely not perfect). I am in a much better place today because of it ❤️

She loves her partner
But intimacy feels impossible. The itching, the burning, the discomfort that follows.
She doesn’t say yes, not because she doesn’t want to, but because it’s too much.
Recurring post-intimacy symptoms aren’t imagined. They’re often driven by microbiome imbalance, by hormone, diet and lifestyle influences. They need addressing properly, not only symptom relief but a permanent solution.

It can be hard for those around us when we start saying no. When we stop doing everything for everyone else at the cost to our own health/sanity/ideals/wants/needs.
Setting boundaries, being true to ourselves. This is what perimenopause brings. It’s an emotional journey for those around us too.
When a woman honours herself, the world around her has to adjust.

One of the biggest challenges of perimenopause? No longer putting up with other people’s cr@p!
It might feel like a lack of patience, or rage, or like being surrounded by morons.
As progesterone (and oestrogen) decline, we feel@much less tolerant. It’s exhausting.
It’s not losing ourselves, it’s finding our true selves again ❤️

She cried in her car after work — not because anything was wrong, but because everything was too much.�She’d carried everyone’s needs for years.
�Then as perimenopause shifted hormones, progesterone dropped, oestrogen up and down… and suddenly her tolerance for the invisible load disappeared.�
This isn’t failure.
�It’s physiology telling the truth.

If intimacy has become unpredictable or painful, it’s not something to “push through.”
The Vag Hormone Assessment helps uncover the pattern gently, respectfully, and without judgment.

When she learned it wasn’t “just thrush,” but a fragile vaginal ecosystem reacting to hormonal shifts, stress, and disrupted Lactobacilli, she said:�“I wish someone had explained this years ago.”
Perimenopausal periods can be super heavy, inconsistent in timing, come with PMS that is just out of control (just angry at the world???)
But they don’t have to be.
My client went from flooding periods with clots the size of her thumb, with RAGE in the lead up that felt like Jekyll and Hyde.
Now she’s back in control of her body with uneventful but on time periods that aren’t nearly so heavy and let her get on with her life, no matter what day of her cycle she’s at.

She wasn’t avoiding her partner, at least that’s not what she meant to do.
She was avoiding the aftermath- the itching, the discharge, the discomfort, the shame. Feeling like her body was betraying her.
Meanwhile her partner felt confused, shut out.
Because symptoms don’t just affect bodies. They affect relationships, confidence, and connection.
