"My weight is coming down, my macros are balancing out, and I'm walking regularly and feeling great!" – M Cummins
A personalised, practical starting point for menopause and the decades beyond.
Maybe you eat reasonably well but aren’t sure whether you’re actually giving your body what it needs now. Or perhaps you’re tired of trying to make sense of conflicting nutrition and menopause advice.
Simply Start gives you the space to look at your current nutrition, habits and everyday routines, identify what matters most, and build a practical plan that fits your real life.
Together, we’ll focus on clear first steps that support how you feel now while helping you build strong foundations for the years ahead.
WHO THIS IS FOR
Simply Start may be right for you if you:
Feel overwhelmed by nutrition or menopause advice
Aren’t sure what to focus on first
Want personalised guidance rather than another set of rules
Want a realistic plan that fits your life
Are ready to make practical changes now while supporting your future health
What's included
Comprehensive initial consultation
An in-depth look at your current nutrition, habits, routines, goals and lifestyle to understand where you are now and what you would most like to change.
Personalised action plan
Clear, practical recommendations tailored to your goals, circumstances and everyday life. With realistic steps you can begin putting into practice straight away.
Follow-up session
An opportunity to review your progress, discuss what is working, troubleshoot any challenges and adjust your plan where needed.
Clear next-step guidance
Leave your follow-up knowing what to keep doing, what to adjust, and where to focus next, so you’re not left wondering what happens after the programme finishes.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens in a Simply Start consultation?
We start with an in-depth conversation about your current nutrition, lifestyle, goals and what’s been feeling difficult. From there, I create a personalised action plan with practical changes that fit your real life. We then meet again for a follow-up consultation to review what’s working, make adjustments and decide on your next steps.
How do I know if Simply Start is the right option for me?
Simply Start is a good fit if you want personalised guidance and a clear starting point without committing to a longer programme. It’s designed to help you understand what to focus on, make practical changes and see how they work for you before deciding whether you need further support.
Will I need a meal plan or count calories?
Not as a default. My approach is centred on practical, sustainable nutrition rather than rigid plans. We’ll look at things like protein, fibre, meal structure and everyday food choices, then build changes that feel realistic for you. If tracking something would genuinely be useful, we can discuss that together.
What happens at the follow-up consultation?
The follow-up gives us a chance to see how the changes are working in real life. We can troubleshoot anything that hasn’t quite clicked, refine your plan and build on what is already going well so you leave with clear next steps.
Can I continue working with you afterwards?
Absolutely. Some women find that Simply Start gives them exactly the clarity they need, while others decide they would benefit from longer-term support. If you’d like to keep working together, we can discuss the most appropriate next step for you.
