In this episode of Menopause Unscripted, I open up about one of the biggest challenges I see women face in midlife — the belief that we can “do it alone.”
So many women tell me, “Farah, I know what to do… I just don’t do it.”
The truth is, menopause changes everything — from hormones to metabolism to mindset — and what worked in your 30s or even early 40s no longer delivers the same results.
I share my own story of struggling through perimenopause — from mood swings, binge eating, and hot flashes to realising that the doctors didn’t have all the answers.
It wasn’t until I hired a coach and received the right guidance that everything began to make sense.
I finally learned how to nourish my body, balance my hormones, and build sustainable habits that made me stronger — mentally and physically.
In this conversation, I break down the five main reasons women stay stuck when trying to navigate menopause fitness alone:
Lack of Guidance – You can’t solve new problems with old tools. Menopause demands a new approach.
No Accountability – When no one’s checking in, it’s too easy to slip back into old habits.
Overwhelm and Confusion – There’s so much conflicting advice online that it leaves most women paralysed.
Isolation – Doing it alone means missing the encouragement, reassurance, and inspiration that comes from being part of a supportive community.
Slow Results – Without proven systems, it takes much longer to make progress and even harder to sustain it.
I also share powerful stories of clients who rediscovered their confidence and resilience — from the woman who celebrated her first “thigh gap” at 60 to another who realised she no longer needed sugar to feel good.
These women found strength not just through workouts and nutrition, but by surrounding themselves with support, compassion, and community.
This episode is an invitation to stop walking this road alone.
You don’t need to keep guessing, starting over, or waiting for the “perfect time.”
There’s a better way — one built on science, structure, and sisterhood.
Listen now to discover how working with the right guidance and community can transform your menopause journey — body, mind, and spirit.
