Why UPLIFT? And what the heck is a menopause coach?
Think of a menopause coach like a specialized doula trained to focus on women in midlife. While not a medical professional, a doula can assist in navigating this important milestone through education, goal setting, building better habits, support, and guidance through this (better than you think) transition. Focus areas often include:
Goals & Limiting Beliefs
Routines & Habits
Reset & Accountability
Sleep Optimization
Activity & Movement
Relationships & Support
Hydration & Nutrition
Decluttering & Stress
Hi there! I’m Megan! I ended up entering the menopause coaching and education space while navigating my own symptoms. My body suddenly didn’t feel (or respond) like my body. My mind didn’t feel like my mind. And my heart felt dimmed. I felt flat even when doing the things that had always brought me joy. I was terrified this was the “new me” and wasn’t ready to settle for that reality.
Supporting women and creating community has always been my jam, and so I wanted to offer multiple ways to do that through UPLIFT! I’d love to meet you where you’re at (let’s be honest, I’d just love to meet you)!
Home is West Seattle with my husband, two boys, snake, and sometimes-pet cat. When I’m not coaching, I co-host the podcast “Coming of Rage” with my best friend of 34 years about perimenopause & menopause, documenting our journey as we try to demystify and educate ourselves about this phase of life (explicit content warning: lots of swears). My interests include off-key karaoke, living room dance parties, late night reading, and watching horror movies (with all the lights on).
What sets UPLIFT apart?
Competency-trained menopause coach: supervised practice, real clients, ethical scope.
I’m a Certified Menopause Coach trained through “Women of a Certain Stage”: an 18-week, competency-based certification with a framework that I’ve lived and used. That means I didn’t just download information: I was taught by expert faculty (including doctors, nurses, and other leaders in this field), I practiced extensively, and practice-coached real clients through a proven framework. I coach within a clear ethical scope and help you make sustainable changes, not quick fixes, and I’m backed by a global professional community and an established program since 2014 (not just a weekend badge). If you want support that’s practical, responsible, and built for real-life complexity, that’s what I do!
