If your skin doesn’t glow the way it used to, it’s not because you’re doing something wrong.

Perimenopause brings real shifts in hormones, circulation, hydration, and how your skin repairs itself.
What once worked might suddenly feel… underwhelming.

That doesn’t mean your glow is gone. It means your body is asking for a different kind of support now and glow needs to come from the inside.

One simple place to start: start the day with a big glass of warm water with fresh lemon to stimulate digestive function so nutrients are better absorbed and to help rehydrate after sleep.

Midlife skin isn’t failing. It’s adapting.
And when you understand what’s changing beneath the surface, you can work with your body instead of fighting it.

New Year’s resolutions? No thanks.

For me it’s about what I want more of in my life this year - adventure, energy, fun and connection. I’ll just plant that seed and let it grow over the year, guiding my decisions and direction.

What do you want more of for yourself this year?

New Year drink choices for steadier blood sugar 🥂

What you sip matters just as much as what you eat — especially in peri & menopause.

To support more stable blood sugar over the festive season:

✔️ If you are going to drink alcohol choose dry wine, spirits with soda, or mineral water
✔️ Alternate alcohol with water or sparkling water
✔️ Add lime, lemon, mint or bitters instead of sugary mixers
✔️ Eat protein before drinking to soften glucose spikes
✔️ Keep caffeine earlier in the day — it can increase blood sugar swings when stress hormones are high

Try to limit:
❌ Cocktails, sweet wines, juices & soft drinks
❌ Drinking on an empty stomach

✨ Gentle reminder: this isn’t about restriction — it’s about supporting your hormones, energy, sleep and mood.

Save this for New Year’s Eve 💫

Glow isn’t about doing more in January. It’s about supporting your body in the ways it needs now.

Join myself and skin therapist Mel Cockle for Glow From the Inside Out, an intimate in-person event for women in perimenopause and menopause, held on Thursday 15 January at 5.30pm at the Avalon Sailing Club.

We’ll explore how gut health, hormones, skin, and the nervous system are connected, and share practical ways to support your glow from the inside out without overwhelm or hype.

It sounds almost too simple, but your breath can genuinely change a craving.

When a craving hits hard, it’s usually because your nervous system is in “fix this now” mode.
A slow, deep breathing pattern, four seconds in, six seconds out, helps shift your body into a calmer state.

And when your body feels safe, the urge loses its intensity.

It’s not about distracting yourself.
It’s about giving your system a chance to settle so you can choose what your body actually needs, not what the craving is yelling for.

A tiny tool, surprisingly powerful.
Especially on the days when everything already feels a bit louder.

You know those days when your chest feels tight, your thoughts speed up, and you can’t quite explain why?

Sometimes it’s not “just anxiety.”
Sometimes it’s your blood sugar jumping around.

When your blood sugar dips too low, your body releases stress hormones to bring it back up—
and that can feel exactly like anxiety: racing heart, irritability, restlessness, that edge you can’t shake.

If this feels familiar, you’re not alone.
Perimenopause makes these swings happen more easily, which means the emotional symptoms get louder too.

A steadier plate often leads to a steadier mind.
And that’s a relief many women never knew was possible.

Warmest Christmas wishes to your and your loved ones. Wishing you a joyful festive period filled with rest, nourishment, and moments that truly light you up.

Your first meal of the day does more than “start your morning.”
It quietly sets the tone for how steady or chaotic your cravings will feel later on.

When that first meal has enough protein, fibre, and healthy fats, your blood sugar gets a stable foundation.

And when your blood sugar is stable, your brain stops sending those urgent “I need something now” signals.

It’s not about being perfect.
It’s about giving your body the kind of fuel that keeps you grounded for the rest of the day.

Small shift, big difference.
Especially in perimenopause, when your system is a little more sensitive.

If you’ve ever noticed days where your hunger, mood, or energy feel totally unpredictable…
there’s usually a blood sugar pattern sitting underneath it all.

And once you understand what your own body is doing, not the generic advice online, everything starts making a lot more sense.

If you’re curious about your patterns and want clearer insight instead of guessing, you can book a consult or send a message to chat through what’s been going on for you.

Here are some of my fave quick and easy blood sugar balancing snacks for those times when you need a lift between meals:

🍐 Fruit and nuts
🍓 Yogurt with seeds and berries
🥒 Cucumber and roasted chickpeas
🌾 Seedy crackers and tahini

Not only are they all filling and won’t spike your blood sugar, but they’re also high in fibre which your gut bugs will love 💕

Some days it’s smooth sailing.
Other days it feels like your blood sugar is doing its own thing and forgot to loop you in.

Perimenopause changes how your body handles food, stress and sleep.
So those energy dips, shaky moments or random bursts of hunger aren’t imagined.
They’re real responses to a system that’s shifting underneath you.

And honestly?
Learning how to work with those changes instead of fighting them can make everything feel more predictable.

Small adjustments add up.
Balanced meals.
Consistent eating times.
A little more support and a little less pressure.

Your body isn’t misbehaving.
It’s adapting.
