Emma Warwick-McElhinney
Menopause disruptor. Nutrition & mindset coach. Former hot mess.

Not only that, she supports organisations to empower their workforce in their wellness and menopause conversations helping them go from meno-clueless to meno-champions. She also provides Accredited Menopause Coaching certification to health, fitness & wellness professionals who want to become menopause support coaches (and individuals who are the Menopause Coaches of the future). In her free time she hosts the EPIC Piss Off Perimenopause Podcast – 9.8K downloads and growing (PG: Explicit Content 🤣, bringing the energy, the spark and sass to turn the tables on what is historically a fairly dull topic. It’s not all hot flushes and mood swings (but there is a lot of losing car keys!)

Lynsey Foster
Lynsey takes a holistic approach to hormonal health, fitness, and well-being. She is passionate about empowering her clients to change how they live, look, and feel through the power of body literacy, menstrual health, nutrition, lifestyle, training, and hormonal balance.
With 20 years of experience in healthcare, Lynsey brings a wealth of knowledge to her practice. However, her journey took a pivotal turn in 2020 when, at 40 years old, she experienced a breakdown due to an early and severe onset of perimenopause – something she had no prior understanding of. During this challenging time, Lynsey felt lost, broken, and even suicidal, and she struggled to comprehend what was happening to her.
Lynsey was let down by the medical system, including her GP and other health professionals she encountered while seeking a diagnosis. The only treatment option presented to me was Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), which exacerbated hersymptoms. This drove me to explore alternative approaches, leading herto functional nutrition and health.

Andrea Clare

She recognised that art had helped her through difficult times in life too.
