For the record… polyphenols are something we’ve been talking about in Nutrition for decades! They may be the next big thing in the media, but when you work with a Registered Nutritionist, you get to hear about it WAY before the newspapers do.

Still this is worth a read and I’m really pleased to see this stuff making mainstream media at long last 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

The wellness world is buzzing about their link to longevity, gut health and reduced inflammation. But what actually are they, and how can we get more of them in our diet?

Clare's here to brighten up your mid-morning with music, conversation and updates.

We can talk about hot flushes, chin hairs and brain fog..
but the minute someone mentions the pelvic floor… silence. 😅.
It’s time to change that.
Because pelvic health isn’t just about leaks.
it’s about confidence, strength, great s*x, and not having to get up for a p*e at 2am.
Join us for an honest, down-to-earth evening with Pelvic Health Physio Linda van Doorn,
who’s helped hundreds of women rebuild confidence from the inside out.
🗓 Wednesday 12th November.
🕖 7–9pm.
📍 Darwin Community Centre, Frankwell, Shrewsbury.
💬 Free for members of the Shropshire Menopause Hub.
🎟 Non-members can join as PAYG guests: just DM me the word “GUEST” and I’ll send you the link.
Let’s ditch the embarrassment, start the conversation, and get back in tune with our bodies.
because confidence starts from the inside out. 💪✨

Fierce Friday PSA 🚨.
No mate, I don’t need another email telling me how Daphne dropped 3 dress sizes just in time to squeeze into her LBD.
We’ve evolved past that nonsense.
You’re not a bloody turkey to be trimmed and stuffed for Christmas dinner.
You’re a woman in midlife, strong, smart, and finally seeing through the noise.
We don’t need to shrink to be seen.
We’re done with the numbers, the guilt, and the “quick fixes.”
This season, we’re choosing joy, confidence and food that makes us feel alive.
Because midlife isn’t falling apart, it’s finally coming together.
Share this with the women who get it.
Let’s make fierce the new festive. ✨.

Let’s talk about the real leaks of midlife 💦.
If you’re crossing your legs & hoping for the best every time you laugh, sneeze or jump… this one’s for you.
You don’t need another pack of Tena Ladies in your shopping basket, you need proper pelvic floor support (and no, this isn’t just for the over 50s).
Join us for our next Shropshire Menopause Hub event:
🗓 Wednesday 12th November.
🕖 7–9pm.
📍 The Darwin Community Centre, Shrewsbury (a stone’s throw from Frankwell car park).
🎙 With Physiotherapist Linda van Doorn, Pelvic Health Clinical Lead, helping women fix the leaks, ditch the myths & rebuild confidence.
It’s FREE for Hub members and open to guests on a PAYG basis.
Just DM me the word GUEST and I’ll send you the booking link.
Tea, nibbles, laughter, and a conversation that might just change your life 💛

How’s this for Halloween horror? 👻
Sometimes the noise coming from the menopause industry is scarier than a scene from Nightmare on Elm Street.
Scroll through for my current freaky favourites. 💀
Midlife doesn’t need gimmicks, it needs truth, transparency, connection, and a lot less division.
We can only hope…
So tell me, what menopause-industry bollox makes your blood boil? 🔥.
Drop it in the comments and let’s have a laugh before we scream. 🎃🕷

It’s World Menopause Day, and instead of whispering about it, I’m shouting from the mountaintop (literally).
Menopause isn’t a flaw that needs “fixing”. It’s been part of the human experience for thousands of years.
Somewhere along the way, we started medicalising it, and yes, in our modern, toxic, over-stimulated world, that sometimes makes sense.
But maybe what we really need is to realign, to listen, to nourish, to support what our bodies have always known how to do.
I’ve lived through a natural menopause after breast cancer. And now, post-menopause, I’ve never felt more myself.
More at home in my own skin, more confident, and more ready to do the things I used to talk myself out of.
Running my business. Climbing mountains. Speaking my truth.
Doing things that light me up, and surrounding myself with women who do the same.
So here’s to us babes, to strength, to freedom, to living fully in this wild, wonderful midlife chapter. To being more selfish!
Menopause isn’t the end. It’s the upgrade. 💪

September!
What a ride!
➡️ Shropshire Health Clinic opened its doors allowing me to offer private 1:1 nutrition to more people in Shropshire.
➡️ Shropshire Menopause Hub was launched! A membership for women of Shropshire who want to experience a joyful & empowering midlife.
➡️ We said goodbye to Chris’ mum Anneliese ❤️.
➡️ Caught up with my bestie, who is a totes legend and has had quite a year, but she’s navigated it with impeccable grace 😘.
➡️ Climbed a mountain (or 2). One of the best things I’ve done in a long while, as you can see I did a lot of pouting and posing along the way 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️.
➡️ Collaborated on a book for women in biz. It’s been an honour to be amongst such awesome women 💪🏻. I can’t wait for it to be in print 🤩.
➡️ Had a holiday at long last!!! Travelled to our beloved Crete, and enjoyed our second ‘sober’ holiday together. No alcohol withdrawals to deal with upon our return!! Energy in full flow! 🙌🏻.
Ready for you October 🍁🍂🎆.

World Mental Health Day
This photo reminds me that how we feel in a moment isn’t always a reflection of how life is. Time really is a healer, things do get better.
If you’d taken a photo of me 12 months ago, you’d have seen someone totally broken.
Lacking confidence.
Full of self-doubt.
Drowning in anxiety.
Thinking about throwing away a business I was once so passionate about.
I was scrolling job sites, ready to go back to a world that drained me and never lit me up.
I didn’t want to be here.
Fast forward 12 months, life looks very different.
What changed?
I let go of the things (and people) that no longer served me, and made peace with that.
I admitted I needed support, and asked for it.
I joined a networking group.
I got a part-time job that brought me back into the real world: real conversations, real people, not just faces on Zoom.
But most of all…
I never gave up on my dream.
Some days still suck, but the strength I’ve built from those dark times is everything.
So today, I’m reflecting, and reminding you:
Moments in time are just that. Don’t judge yourself too harshly. It will pass.
And whatever’s going on for you, don’t suffer in silence.
Talk to someone. Ask for help.
It’s not failing. It’s being human.
S ❤️
