Reignite Your Strength, Energy & Confidence—Without Overtraining or Restrictive Diets

You eat well.

You try to exercise.

You've read the articles, taken the supplements, and followed the advice.

But something still feels off

— your energy, your body, your bones, your mind —

and the mountain of conflicting information is making it harder, not easier, to know what to actually do.

 

You're not broken.

You're not too old.

You're not too far gone.

 

You just don't have a system built around your body yet.

That's exactly what we build together.

Does this sound familiar?

You wake before you need to.

You struggle to get back to sleep. You get through the day, but it feels like you're walking through mud. Nothing is easy.

Maybe you've had an abnormal DEXA scan.

Maybe the weight is creeping up... especially around the middle.
Everything feels sluggish. 

And the niggles and tweaks that used to disappear are gradually getting worse.

You wonder if you could be doing something.

But you don't know where to start.

If you're thinking...

Is this what I should expect now?

The answer is no.

But I know you know that. Because you're here, reading this.

You know there's something you could be doing that would bring you back into balance. Not 20-year-old balance ... but 40, 50, 60, 70-year-old YOU balance.

"Practical, inspiring, easy to follow.

One or two tweaks a week made all the difference.”

— Claire

"Wal isn’t about big overhauls. She celebrates the small victories, gives clear feedback, and helps you layer one tiny goal at a time. That’s why the habits stuck.”

— Deb

“I spent years looking for help with stress and weight. Most advice was one size fits all and told me to slow down in my mid 50s. Wal saw that and met me where I was.”

— Maree

Here's what I know after 20 years working with women in exactly this place

The women who don't act don't stay the same.

The sluggishness becomes exhaustion.

The borderline DEXA scan becomes the fracture that steals six months and a piece of their independence. The weight that was creeping becomes the health risk they were trying to avoid.

The niggles become the reason they stop doing the things they love.

Not because they didn't care. Because they didn't know exactly what to do ... and waiting felt safer than getting it wrong again.

We do age.

Decline is inevitable.

But the daily actions you take are either making that decline a free fall... or a gentle hang glide down.

You get to choose.

Every action you take today is a vote for your tomorrow.

There is a ton of research on women in their 70s and 80s making changes and living a better quality of life. There is a ton of research on women in their 40s and 50s making changes that significantly decreased their risk of disease later in life.

It is never too late. And the women I work with — at 43, at 57, at 64 — prove that every single day.

The hard part isn't wanting it. The hard part is knowing exactly what to do.

That's where I come in.

I work with you,  with what you have going on right now, with your lifestyle, your history, your body. After 20 years in this industry I know how to identify the actions that will give you the highest return — the ones that move the needle most, fastest, for exactly where you're starting from.

 

So what actually makes the difference?

It's not more information. You already have plenty of that.

It's not more willpower. You've already proven you have that in abundance — you're still here, still trying, still showing up for yourself even when it's hard.

It's not even more effort. Most of the women I work with are already doing too much — throwing everything at the wall hoping something sticks.

Here's what actually moves the needle:

The right actions. For your body. In the right order.

That's it. That's the whole secret. Not sexy. Not complicated. But extraordinarily powerful when it's done properly.

You see, most health advice is built for an average woman. A fictional average woman who doesn't have your history, your lifestyle, your hormones, your bone density, your sleep patterns, your stress load, your food preferences or your goals.

And when you apply average advice to a specific body — you get average results at best. And confusion and frustration at worst.

What I've spent 20 years developing is a framework that takes everything that is true about health — the science, the research, the evidence — and applies it to you specifically.

I call it the RISE framework.

R — Refuel. The right nutrition for your body, your hormones, your bones, your life stage. Not a diet. A way of eating that works with your physiology, not against it.

I — Intentional Movement. The right movement for where you are right now. Functional strength, load-bearing exercise, mobility — designed for your body and your goals.

S — Sleep. The most underestimated pillar of health. When your sleep is optimised everything else works better — your weight, your hormones, your mood, your energy, your bones.

E — Emotional Regulation. The piece most women skip entirely. Your nervous system, your stress response, your relationship with yourself — this is the layer that determines whether everything else sticks.

When all four pillars are working together — personalised to your body, simplified to your daily life — something shifts.

Results stop being something you hope for.

They become inevitable.

Let me tell you something about me that might surprise you.

I am stronger and fitter right now — in my 40s, in the thick of perimenopause — than I have been since my 20s.

My mind is sharp. My energy is real. I bounce up hills. I sing in the car. I wake up genuinely excited about the day ahead — and even more excited about the 80-year-old I'm becoming.

But it wasn't always this way.

A few years ago perimenopause arrived — and it hit me hard.

Not just physically. Mostly mentally and emotionally. I was getting out of bed to tend to my kids but I was barely holding myself together. My energy had completely tanked. My nervous system felt permanently switched on — like a car alarm that wouldn't stop.

And then came the day I knew something had to change.

I couldn't get through a day without crying. And I'm not a crier.

That was my moment.

Here's what makes my story a little different.

I came to this work young — at 20 years old I was diagnosed with cancer. I went through chemotherapy and radiation. And somewhere in the middle of all of that I made a decision that has shaped every single thing I've done since.

I decided that I would do everything within my power to nourish this body. Not out of fear. Out of deep, genuine respect for what it was capable of.

Food. Movement. Sleep. Emotional resilience.

Not for how I looked. Not for a number on a scale. But for my 80-year-old self — the woman I fully intend to be, still travelling, still strong, still taking absolutely no nonsense from anyone.

My treatment also left me with an increased risk of osteoporosis. So I don't just teach bone health — I live it. Every single day. Because I have to.

So when perimenopause brought me to my knees — despite everything I knew, despite all my training and qualifications and years of experience — I understood something profound.

Knowing and doing are two very different things.

And even the woman who knows exactly what her body needs sometimes has to stop, recommit to herself, and start again.

That recommitment — that decision to show up for myself — was the turning point. Not a new program. Not a new diet. A decision.

And then? I didn't overhaul my entire life. I made tweaks. The right tweaks, in the right order, for my specific body. Using the same framework I'd been building for 20 years.

And I clawed back pieces of myself — one by one — until I didn't just feel like me again. I felt like a better version of me. The version that had perhaps got a little lost in the beautiful, consuming chaos of motherhood.

Now I help other women do exactly the same.

Not because I read about it. Not because I studied it in a textbook — although I did that too, MSc and BPHEd and 20 years of clinical experience.

But because I have lived it. In my body. With my own fear, exhaustion, and uncertainty.

I know what it feels like to have all the knowledge and still not know where to start.

I know what it feels like to be the woman walking through mud.

And I know — with absolute certainty — what it takes to change that.

I also know this:

You are never too far gone. It is never too late. And you do not have to figure this out alone.

My job is simple. I take everything that is overwhelming — all the research, all the conflicting advice, all the noise — and I distil it down to the daily actions that will give YOUR body exactly what it needs.

Actions that are simple. Sustainable. And when done consistently —

Inevitable.

IS THIS FOR YOU?

  • You don't need to tick every box. But if you're nodding at most of them — keep reading.

  •  You are a woman 40-60+ who knows something needs to change and you're ready to actually do something about it

  •  You're tired of generic advice and one-size-fits-all programs that were never built for your body or your life stage

  •  You've tried things before and they haven't stuck, and you're finally ready to understand why

  •  You want someone to cut through the noise and tell you exactly what YOUR body needs right now

  •  You're dealing with perimenopause symptoms, weight gain, fatigue, brain fog, sleep issues, mood shifts,  and you want a real system not a band-aid

  •  You've had a DEXA scan or bone health concern and you want to know exactly what to do about it

  •  You're willing to show up consistently for 90 days and do the work

  •  You want results that last — not a quick fix you can't maintain

  •   You're ready to invest in yourself the way you've invested in everything and everyone else

THIS IS NOT FOR YOU IF:

  • You're looking for a quick fix or a short-term solution

  • You want to be told what you want to hear rather than what will actually work

  •  You're not willing to make your health a priority for 90 days

  •  You're hoping the program will do the work for you without your full commitment

  •   You're not ready to invest in yourself at this level right now — and that's okay, there are other ways we can work together

"I'm stronger than I was in my 20s!

At 43, I never imagined I could feel stronger, more energised, and more balanced than I did in my 20s. But with this program, my energy is level, my strength improved, and my emotions finally feel steady. It’s been a total game-changer"

Let's talk about investment.

I want to be upfront with you here...because that's how I work.

The RISE Intensive is a premium 1:1 coaching experience. It is not the cheapest option available to you. And I want to tell you exactly why , because you deserve to understand what you're investing in before you see the number.

What you're NOT paying for:

You're not paying for 12 calls with someone who follows a script.

You're not paying for a generic program with your name on it.

You're not paying for information you could find on Google.

 

What you ARE paying for:

You're paying for 20 years of clinical expertise applied specifically to your body.

You're paying for the certainty of knowing — finally — exactly what YOUR body needs and why.

You're paying for 90 days of having someone in your corner who has walked this path, studied this science, and knows how to cut through every piece of noise to find the signal that matters for you.

You're paying to stop starting over.

 

 Now let me ask you something.

What has the last year of not knowing what to do actually cost you?

Not just financially, though there's that too.

The supplements that didn't work.

The programs you bought and didn't finish.

The appointments that left you with more questions than answers.

But the real cost.

The energy you didn't have for the people you love. The confidence you lost somewhere along the way. The mornings you woke up dreading the day. The version of yourself you've been waiting to get back to.

What is it worth to you to stop waiting?

Here's what I know from working with women in exactly your position.

The women who invest in getting this right,  properly, personally, completely ,  don't just feel better.

They move differently through the world. They make better decisions. They show up more fully for their families, their work, their lives. They stop shrinking and start expanding.

 

And the women who don't? They come back twelve months later having lost another year to confusion, frustration and starting over.

I don't want that for you.

One more thing before we get to the numbers.

The RISE Intensive is not a cost. It is a return on investment.

Consider this,  the average woman I work with has spent anywhere from $2,000 to $5,000 in the year before we meet on supplements, programs, appointments and advice that didn't give her what she needed. The RISE Intensive doesn't add to that number. For most women it replaces it,  and delivers what none of those things could.

The investment pays for itself. Not someday. Within 90 days.

The invisible tax of feeling less than you could feel every single day? That ends here.

Here's the only thing I want to leave you with.

Every day you wait is another day your body is asking for something it isn't getting.

Not dramatically. Not catastrophically. Just quietly , in the energy that isn't quite there, the sleep that isn't quite restful, the body that isn't quite responding, the version of yourself that isn't quite showing up.

You've been waiting for the right time. The right moment. Enough clarity to feel ready.

But clarity doesn't come before action. It comes from it.

The women I work with don't look back at their 90 days and wish they'd waited longer. They look back and wish they'd started sooner.

You know something needs to change. You know you don't want to keep feeling this way. And you know, somewhere underneath all the noise,  exactly what you're capable of.

Let's build that together.

Your results are not hopeful.

They are not possible.

They are inevitable.
