Energy for neurodivergent women in perimenopause
Hello, I'm Hannah. I help neurodivergent women in perimenopause get their energy back.
I'm a metabolic health coach and artist, living in Kampot, Cambodia. I'm also a late-discovered AuDHD woman, and for years I ran on pushing through until I crashed.
At 40, my metabolism collapsed. I went from hiking to bedbound, relying on a walking stick, diagnosed with CFS, hypothyroidism and autistic burnout. I believed my body was something I had to put up with.
Then I stopped fighting it and started working with how my cells make energy. Working with the cell danger response is how I healed myself fully, and it's how I help my clients. We get very good results.
In their words
I was waking at 3am exhausted, hitting a wall by 2pm, and barely able to think straight. I'd written it all off as perimenopause and assumed this was just my life now. Within two weeks, I was sleeping through the night, the afternoon crashes were gone, and my head was clearer than it had been in months.

After just two weeks I now have more energy - a slow slide into the evening instead of a big crash at 3 pm. Relatedly, I'm waking up fewer times in the night and getting more quality sleep. Having neurodivergence be the starting point was revolutionary.

The tenderness, rigour, and accommodations baked into this offering are unlike anything I've ever experienced before. There is no push involved here, real change slowly starts to happen — and the investment is absolutely worth it.

Why I do this work
I spent years as a social worker, educator and mentor, and then helped women build businesses. Again and again I saw women who looked successful on paper and were quietly collapsing at home. They were in perimenopause, overloaded by sensory demands, deeply burnt out, and told their fatigue was normal or all in their head.
You can't build a life on a body that has no energy. So I now work with the thing underneath: how your body makes and uses energy.
Three ways to work with me
The Energy Detective Assessment (1:1, online)
A one-off deep dive into why your energy hits a wall. We look at your habits and patterns and find what is holding you back. If it feels right afterwards, we can talk about ongoing support. Learn more about the assessment

What's different about working with me
I know your brain. Restrictive fasting, cold plunges and one-size-fits-all plans often add stress for a sensory-sensitive nervous system. I build plans around your food preferences, your energy and your sensory needs.
I look at your life, not just your numbers. Steady blood sugar and a nervous system that feels safe are the two things I work on.
I know how to hold the hard parts. Years in social work and coaching mean I can sit with the frustration of chronic fatigue and the hope of finally finding answers.
My practice is qualified and supervised. I hold a degree in Community Education and an accredited metabolic health coaching certification (IPHM, CMA), and I have regular clinical supervision with a supervisor who specialises in metabolic health.
What I believe
Your health is the baseline for everything else. I don't believe in grinding your way to health with hacks. I believe in nervous system safety, steady energy and trusting yourself.
What you can expect
A close look at why your batteries won't hold a charge
Personal strategies that respect how you like to eat, rest and work, with no rigid rules
Support through perimenopause that understands your body
Honest, shame-free conversations
Warmth, and a person alongside you
If you're tired of experts who don't get your brain, I'd love to hear from you.
