Feel in control of your hormones without starting another diet plan even if you're stretched to the limit.
Being healthy in perimenopause doesn't have to be all or nothing. It doesn't have to be hard.
The Happy Hormones Membership
with Jo Crovini
- Do you struggle to keep up with new healthy habits?
- Have the diet changes that used to work stopped now erratic hormones are in the mix?
- Are you slipping when life gets busy and never really getting back on track?
- Are you stuck in a food rut?
- Eating well could be simple and enjoyable?
- You could recognise when you're going off track before it goes too far?
- You understood how to eat now at this stage of your life for the best results?
- Someone else did the thinking for you and you could feel inspired by food again?
What if...
Life is 100 miles an hour 24/7 and there aren't enough hours in the day. You were just about coping until perimenopause tipped you over the edge and now you're exhausted. You commit to being healthier, you're enthusiastic and throw yourself in to a new plan. BUT after a week you lose motivation. It's too hard. In perimenopause your hormones are erratic and you need a different approach.
You've tried to do too much, you're tired, it wasn't realistic, and what you need at this stage of your life is different.
It's impossible to be perfect all the time and you've tried every diet under the sun, lost weight then put it all back on and more. BUT you could feel so much healthier and happier by doing things differently. When your hormones start to change from 40 onwards you need a different plan. You need to eat differently not less. You need to ditch the deprivation approach because it won't work for you.
This membership is perfect for 40+ women who:
- Need motivation and ideas on how to support their health through the fluctuating hormones of perimenopause and stay healthy at this time of life
- Want to lose weight, feel healthier and understand what the right food and lifestyle choices are for perimenopause
- Are committed to making a change for the long term and being consistent without being perfect
- Know that they need to do things differently because what worked for them in the past is no longer working
This membership is not for women who:
- Want a traditional diet plan that promises quick weight loss
- Want to focus on weight loss over health and wellbeing
- Intend to keep going at 100mph 24/7 and still expect to see results
- Are looking for a magic solution to menopause symptoms in less than a month
Members say that they love having inspiration and different ideas for meals, ideas for swaps and tweaks, being able to chat to me and other members and having a structured plan to follow. And that those things helped them reach their health goals faster.
Not everyone wants or needs a structured plan so this membership is about giving you choices. It’s not prescriptive. Results aren’t dependent on following a diet plan or cutting foods out. It does rely on your willingness to change the way you've always done things and be open to new ideas, as well as being consistent over time and focusing on health and wellbeing first.
Louise: “Sleep has deffo improved and I'm now regularly getting at least 5-6 hours sleep a night and that's massive for me! Thank you so much for all your help and support. I can't tell you how much better, more confident and in control of things I feel at the mo. You're a wonderful woman!"
As a Nutritional Therapist and a woman in perimenopause I'm passionate about supporting 40+ women to manage their hormones, be full of energy, sleep better and get their lives back.
I started working with women and hormones in 2016 when I spoke at a West Midlands Police Menopause Conference. I've since worked with Cardiff University, Melin Homes, United Welsh and various police forces to help women have a more positive menopause experience.
I also work with women 121 to give tailored ongoing support through the perimenopause transition. And I run a group hormone reset programme to give women that initial kick start.
My Happy Hormones Membership has been running for a year to give ongoing support through this life stage.
I love witnessing the transformations in women I work with.
This is a value packed membership that combines practical tips and ideas with the support to put them in place no matter what your current situation. It gives you a new approach to diet and lifestyle that suits your changing hormones.
It helps you to recognise when you're going off track before it goes too far and to get healthy habits back in place step by step.
It supports you through times when it's difficult to maintain a healthy plan like being away from home, illness, injury and family stresses.
It gives you the confidence to try new things and prioritise what's important for you (even when mealtimes have to cater for a variety of different needs).
It's about doing what's right for you. It's not about perfection.
The membership has a monthly theme, menu plan and masterclass, as well as weekly coaching calls, pop up recipes, top tips and new things to try.
When you join I will initially support you to get the nutrition and lifestyle foundations for perimenopause and menopause in place. After that there are 12 modules that cover all aspects of diet and lifestyle at this life stage and address all the common issues that you may be struggling with.
Each module is broken down into a series of steps that you can put in place to achieve your goals. You can work through these modules with me each month, or you can choose to focus on whichever one best reflects what you’re struggling with, whether that is mood, energy, sleep or weight.
And the best part is that the membership is personalised with 121 support available in the Facebook Group or via WhatsApp as much as you need.

Katina: “One of the things I like about working with you is the realism".
When does it start? It's an ongoing flexible membership so you can join and leave anytime.
Will there be veggie and vegan options? Yes all dietary needs are catered for.
I've tried all the diets, why is this different? This isn't a diet - it's a way of setting goals and being supported to achieve them over the long term. And it's a new approach to eating and lifestyle that better suits your changing hormones.
What if I can't make the live sessions? Everything will be recorded so you can catch up later and the Facebook group will always be open. There's a lot included in the membership so you can use the bits that work for you and leave the bits that don't. If you'd prefer not to include the calls you can opt for the basic membership.
What is included in the basic membership? The basic membership still has the monthly theme, masterclass and menu plan as well as the Facebook group for questions and discussion. It doesn't include the live calls.
The Practical Stuff:
- Monthly themes with masterclass and menu plan
- Weekly Zoom coaching calls to keep you on track**
- Supportive Facebook community for accountability and sharing
- Weekly recipe inspiration, simple meals and grabbable foods
- A weekly top tip video
**We have group meetings on a Wednesday, but attendance is optional. There are other ways to speak to me and get help. The basic plan does not include these calls.
*Fair usage policy
You might have tried “diets” before and they didn’t work. You blame yourself for not having enough willpower because you just couldn’t find the time to implement everything. Or get your head in the right place to put time into planning and cooking. This membership is different because it's totally flexible and works around you. And it accounts for your changing hormones and the different way you need to eat.
As you head through perimenopause you really feel the pressure. The pressure to eat well, exercise, work, ferry the kids around, socialise, etc. It's exhausting and it's no surprise that you can't keep up with your diet. It starts with one busy day when you can't eat as planned and before you know it you're back to where we started.
Every time this happens you feel worse about yourself. And if you stay on this cycle...
You'll continue fighting a losing battle being on and off a diet.
You might try HRT thinking it'll sort everything out and then realise you still need to make the diet and lifestyle changes alongside it.
You'll be flat, unmotivated, sleeping badly and irritable with your family.
BUT it doesn't have to be that way. You can do things differently.

Lis: “It's a great source of information and support. Love the flexibility of it so you can use the group how it suits you."
Rachel: “I look at food in such a different way now and I'm feeling so much better and happier, I never weigh but go on how I feel and good food makes you feel better and it's that simple!. The updates on Facebook are great as it's a daily reminder and I feel I need that to trigger my mind, when I see you pop up I think woo what can I try today or plan for. The zoom meetings are very beneficial and it's lovely and relaxed and I don't feel pressure, it's nice to hear other people in the group's ideas and that you're not alone. It's a lovely support for me and I always feel motivated after a zoom call. The recipes are great and I love being more experimental, even my husband is enjoying!"
