For over 30 years I have been involved in New Zealand’s health and exercise industries. My original career was as an ICU nurse, however I re-trained in physical education and pioneered the Personal Training industry in New Zealand. After leaving the fitness industry, I returned to education and lectured in sport, exercise, nutrition and health physiology, and went on to undertake my Master’s studies in how to help people change their lifestyle behaviour. This led on to my Doctoral studies in the Faculty of Health, Sports and Human Performance at Waikato University. My desire was to better understand how women perceived their ageing and the role of exercise in this during their menopause transition.
What I discovered was that our menopause transition is a critical time to change our lifestyle and our health. In a different hormonal environment what we have done in the past to manage our health, energy and our weight, simply may not work anymore. There has been very little research on the menopause transition, and so many health coaches and other professionals don't understand this, or the lifestyle changes that women need to make to help us get ready for the next 30 years of living we have to do! I realised that this is the time of our lives that our health can begin to change and our menopause symptoms may become worse if we let them. I set up MyMT™ to educate as many women as possible how to age healthily.
