Eating Well & Reducing Overwhelm in Menopause with ADHD

Overwhelmed by food rules and menopause advice?

Discover how hormones and ADHD shape your eating—and learn to move from chaos to clarity and confidence around food, with nourishing habits and strategies that meet your brain where it’s at.

If you’re a midlife women who’s recently been diagnosed with ADHD, or you think you might have it, you’ve likely been bamboozled with information on all the ways you can FIX yourself.

❓Should you go gluten free, alcohol free, sugar free?

❓Should you try cold plunge baths, meditation, intermittent fasting or TRE?

You’re frantically googling solutions and following all the gurus online, which is only making you feel less in control and more chaotic.

Here’s the thing that know one tells you…You don’t need MORE information.

Because ADHD is a DOING problem…not a KNOWING problem.

So, the more information you have, the harder it is to do anything with it.

What you need is a STRATEGY that takes into account:

☺️The ebbs and flows of your hormones

☺️Your ADHD brain and how it works and thinks

☺️That you are a busy human being with a life and a family who doesn’t have hours to spend faffing around in the kitchen.

That’s where Louise Tayler, ADHD coach from Understanding ADHD, and I come in. We’re on a mission to help late diagnosed women with ADHD (self diagnosed welcome) build their own non negotiable package of self care and learn how to powerfully advocate for their needs.

“This was fantastically useful. Thank you both!!! Made me feel like I’m not alone”.

The Menopause Middle - 7 Habits for Success

A must watch masterclass for any midlife women experiencing weight gain and feeling disillusioned by solutions that promise to ‘fix it’. 

Why This Masterclass is Different:

  • No more quick fixes: The diet industry targets midlife women with endless promises, leaving us feeling like failures when they don’t work.
  • Overwhelmed by advice? You’re not alone. Contradicting information and impossible standards make it hard to know where to focus your energy.
  • It’s not about motivation—it’s about clarity. Find out where to direct your limited headspace for real, lasting success.

I’ve been working in this arena now for over 25 years, and I’ve seen time and time again evidence of the 7 habits that make the real difference and I’ve worked with thousands of women to achieve these in a real and authentic way. I’m not talking about the surface level stuff like eat more veg, do more exercise – we all know that!

My Approach:

  • Smarter, calmer, and more strategic—grounded in science but rooted in real life.
  • Compassionate, not prescriptive—no “wellness dictator” vibes and no rigid diet plans. 
  • Designed to empower you to create habits that feel good and sustainable from the inside out. 

What You’ll Gain:

  • A renewed sense of calm and control over your relationship with food and your body.
  • The tools to stop second-guessing yourself and make choices with confidence and clarity.
  • The freedom to break free from guilt, overwhelm, and diet traps, creating space for habits that truly support your well-being.
  • A deeper connection with your body, allowing you to begin to feel happier, healthier, and more at ease in your own skin.
  • The clarity to navigate midlife changes with a strategic and empowering approach, leaving behind all-or-nothing thinking.

 

Stop chasing impossible ideals and start building habits that work—for you.

Messy Mindfulness for Midlife

Mindfulness is one of the most powerful tools in supporting our mental and emotional health. It is proven to improve our resilience, reduce stress and anxiety and support good sleep.

Sometimes accessing this stuff and it feeling doable in amongst competing priorities can pose too much of a stretch. With these barriers in mind, this masterclass is designed specifically for busy midlife women.

“I’ve taken several of Laura’s short workshops and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who would like to take a sensible, kind, evidence-backed approach to eating. She will help you to cut through the nutri-nonsense we’ve all been exposed to and allow you to start appreciating your body (and working with it to feel better). Thanks Laura 🙏”

Helen

“A big thank you for your messy mindfulness session. Thinking about mindfulness as an alternative to mindlessness created a real light bulb moment for me. I’d recommend this to anyone who already ‘gets it’ and also to people who are still questioning why this is so important. Already working on my plan! Thank you again.”

Nicky

In this session you will:

  • Understand the science of mindfulness and in particular how it connects to hormonal health and brain function through menopause.
  • Get comfy with the art of messy mindfulness so you can reap the benefits for your health.
  • Learn easy and accessible techniques to manage day to day challenges, that can be adjusted to work in your life, on your own terms in as little as 2 minutes.
  • Build your own toolkit to feel grounded and calmer around food and in life.

“Laura and Heather’s Masterclass was so helpful. It outlined what mindfulness really is, how you can adapt it to different situations, how to make it work for you and, so importantly, how to make it work for you in the midst of the messiness of midlife. Heather broke the science down into easy to follow information, and adapted it to real life. Thanks so much for an excellent session!”

The IBS Roadmap for Menopausal Women

A step-by-step masterclass for a calmer, happier gut

If you have IBS and you’re in peri or post menopause, you’ve probably noticed the usual gut health advice has stopped working – or never really worked in the first place. Eat more fibre. Add fermented foods. Hit 30 plants a week. Try a probiotic. It’s well-meaning, it’s everywhere, and for a woman with IBS it’s often confusing, contradictory, and exhausting – sometimes it even makes symptoms worse.

This masterclass is the roadmap I wish every one of my IBS clients had before they walked into my clinic.

As a registered dietitian, everything I’ll teach you is grounded in current clinical evidence – so what you’ll get is the science, properly applied to your gut. No supplement upsells. No £300 food intolerance tests. No gut cleanse. Just the actual answers, from someone trained and regulated to give them.

Join us – Friday May 15th 12.30pm

“Absolutely brilliant – it hit everything I have had to piece together myself over the last few years. Can feel the relief already! This is such an important workshop.”
 

In a single, focused session, you’ll walk away knowing:

  • How to make sure you actually have the right diagnosis — and what to push for if you don’t
  • The lifestyle foundations that quietly make or break IBS symptoms in midlife, and why they matter more now than they did in your 30s
  • How to manipulate fibre intelligently for an IBS gut — why the blanket “healthy gut” advice can quietly make symptoms worse, and what to do instead based on your gut, not a generic rule
  • Which probiotics are actually worth your money for IBS and which aren’t
  • Where the low FODMAP diet fits in (yes, you’ve probably googled it)- when it’s the right tool, when it isn’t, and what to know before you go anywhere near it

You’ll leave with a clear, step-by-step plan for managing your symptoms and the confidence that comes from finally understanding what’s going on in your gut, why menopause has changed the rules, and exactly what to do about it.

For a happier, calmer gut, and a lot less second-guessing.

“This made so much sense. Thank you soooooo much.”
 
“Extremely interesting. Lots to think about beyond just what I eat – thank you.”
 
“The workshop was outstanding, I am truly so very grateful Laura”

“Packed full of really useful information on all this food and hormones stuff that I desperately needed to know with really clear explanations. Such good value for money, thanks Laura“

Move, Nourish, Thrive - Essential Guidance for Muscles and Bones

How much exercise is enough? Should you do squats or hill sprints? Or is walking truly enough? And what about protein – do you need to eat more and if so how much? Is there such a thing as a protein to squat ratio? It’s a lot to take in and I feel tired just thinking about it all, let alone motivated to get my ever so sexy (not) stretchy leggings on.

Nutrition and movement sit side-by-side, so I’m teaming up with Claire Callaghan, a Chartered Physio specialising in sport, exercise and women’s health. If you’re confused and keen for time-efficient clarity this masterclass is for you.

The movement and exercise space is saturated with advice and inspiration so how do you know what’s right for your body? We all have a different lived experience and a unique body. So how do we figure out what’s going to work for us, and most importantly feel doable and sustainable when it comes to moving and strengthening our bodies?

We’ll be focussing on the interplay between diet and exercise for optimal health and function of our muscles and bones.

“The workshop was so useful. Loads of brilliant and pragmatic info and advice and perfectly pitched. Would really recommend it to anyone who is keen to positively embrace their 40s.”

In this session Claire and I will help you:

  • Understand the impact of menopause & aging on your bones & muscles.

  • Learn simple strategies to confidently manage energy levels, stiffness and pain.

  • Reduce the overwhelm and create a calmer, happier approach to activity and exercise.

  • Be time efficient with insight into the biggest wins for nutrition and exercise and optimal health and function for your muscles and bones.

  • Feel stronger and healthier with movement and nutrition habits that will support your metabolism and wellbeing in midlife and beyond.
