Is menopause impacting the way you show up in every part of your life?
Hey, I’m Maria
EVENT HOST, SPEAKER AND AWARD WINNING MENOPAUSE IMPROVEMENT SPECIALIST
The straight-talking menopause improvement specialist that helps busy, passionate, brilliant women like you learn how to take care of themselves through menopause.
And I need to tell you this: Your million-miles-an-hour life is colliding with your menopause symptoms and multiplying them tenfold, and we urgently need to do something about that, to protect your long-term health.
My eyebrows fell out, I had no energy and I burnt out completely. I felt rotten.
I should have been riding high. I’d just launched my book (Tales of a Midwife and achieved Sunday Times Bestseller)
but instead of surfing that wave, I just felt like crawling back under the covers.
I lost all confidence. I started wearing clothes that weren’t “me” I stopped wearing my trademark red lipstick. I was trying to disappear.
And after a visit to the Drs which made me feel like “this was our lot” now, as women, and that I was being a total wimp, I decided I’d had enough.
I wasn’t going to sit back and let this consume me. I was going to take control and rewrite this chapter on my terms.
So, I made myself a priority and used my expertise as a healthcare professional to go deep into what I needed to do differently.
I currently work with the Scottish Football Association and have designed and developed my BESPOKE menopause joy programme and a facilitation package to support people within communities to reduce their menopause symptoms one step at a time. Read the results of this work HERE. I support charities, organizations and businesses to raise awareness of menopause, run workshops and speak at conferences on topics related to menopause.
Menopause can be a challenging time, but you don't have to face it alone. With our guidance, you'll discover how to manage your symptoms and embrace this new phase of life with grace and empowerment. Through my proven strategies, I empower you to transform your menopause journey from a period of uncertainty and discomfort to a time of growth and self-discovery.
My approach focuses on empowering you to embrace the changes and thrive during this new chapter of your life.
As we navigate this journey together, you'll gain the knowledge and tools to make informed decisions about your health and well-being. I'm here to support and encourage you every step of the way, helping you to feel confident and in control.
- Life during menopause is not just about managing symptoms; it's about embracing your inner strength and vitality. Through our work together, you'll uncover the reservoir of resilience within you and learn to channel it into all areas of your life.
- Let's shift the narrative around menopause from one of limitation to one of possibility. Together, we'll explore new ways for you to thrive and find joy in this transformative phase. With my guidance, you'll discover the power of embracing change and the freedom that comes with it.
I invite you to step into this new chapter of your life with courage and confidence. Together, we'll navigate the transitions of menopause and discover the gifts it holds for you. Embrace the journey, and unleash your full potential.
With my guidance and support, you'll find the inner strength to embrace the changes that come with menopause and emerge even more resilient and empowered. This is your time to shine and live life to the fullest.

EVENT HOST, SPEAKER AND MENOPAUSE IMPROVEMENT EXPERT
Get To Know Maria ...
57 years old, Maria Anderson, originally from Newcastle now living in Inverness, Scotland, has supported thousands of women and is a huge advocate for women’s health, is celebrating having gone full circle from midwifery to menopause with the launch of her new podcast - ‘HRT is not the ONLY solution’ - which is flying up the charts, already having reached number 14 on the international apple podcasts charts in the in Self Improvement category and number 39 in the Education category, overtaking TV host, Entrepreneur and Philanthropist, Marie Forleo, named by Oprah as a thought leader for the next generation and Marisa Peers, a world-renowned Rapid Transformational Therapy trainer.
Created as part of her mission to reach millions more people globally with her menopause message, ‘HRT is not the ONLY solution’ is a podcast to empower midlife women. Maria, who is now known as ‘The Straight Talking Menopause Coach’, spent the last 40 years working as a nurse, midwife and lecturer within the NHS, and retired early (although she does still do some midwifery shifts because she loves it) to set up her own coaching business, after suffering at the hands of menopause symptoms herself. She is now determined to help others see menopause through new eyes, so they don’t fall into the traps she did.

Elrick House - Your Luxury Accomodation
"Those who dare to dream and challenge the norm with thinking that will open doors to a better tomorrow"
The House of Elrick Estate has only passed hands five times in over 300 years. With so many romanticised stories being told, delve into the history of this unique and beautiful 18th century period estate property.
Well-travelled and curious, members of the household often visited Florence Italy, a country already swept by European Enlightenment thinking. Explorers returned with tales of new science and philosophical learnings that echoed the writings of many of the leading Scottish Enlightened thinkers of the time.
On return to the estate the family sought to host company that would continue the philosophical, scientific and creative discussion of the time, encouraging the expansion of free-thinking over blind faith and thus saw a number of creative and maverick individuals pass through their doors.
Later the house was to be visited by Bonnie Prince Charlie who gifted the Jacobite rose to the estate. It can now be found growing in the beautiful walled garden at the heart of the grounds.
Other acclaimed visitor to the house was Eleanor Vere Boyle, renowed for illustrating stories for Hans Christian Andersen and Alfred Lord Tennyson, as well as writing poetry about Elrick.

It's time to stop hiding behind "I'm fine" and
embrace your inner Lioness.
It's shocking that menopause support is a postcode lottery (less than half of our GPs have ANY training), a blanket-approach toward HRT (with little understanding around the different types), total disregard for holistic approaches and a put-up-shut-up culture that meant women weren’t getting what they needed.

I understand an entire 3 days with us could be a significant decision.
You’re giving up valuable time and energy that could be spent with your loved ones, and that to-do list that never gets any smaller!
