Your life is too short to just “survive” the 8–15 years of perimenopause.
We’ll coach you on exactly how to lose weight, build muscle and keep your energy up all day long in just 10 weeks.
But the real magic?
You save precious time and mental energy.
You know, the hours you would have spent sifting through Instagram posts or reading another menopause book that conflicts with everything the last one told you.
Instead, you get to put that energy into what really matters to you.
Whether that’s keeping up with your kids on bikes this weekend, lifting that giant IKEA box into your trunk without tweaking your back, or setting your sights on something big… like hiking the El Camino for your 50th birthday.
And yes, feeling sexy, confident, or just comfortable when you pull on a bathing suit or get those fall family photos back matters too.
You’ve worked hard to get to this point in life, so building a resilient body that can power you through the rollercoaster of years to come, not just this summer, is an essential for every woman in this life stage.
What to Expect Inside Thrive
x

Our unique Fuel-Train-Recover framework is dialled in on what actually moves the needle for women.
That means no long lists of foods to avoid and complicated protocols, no grinding it out on the treadmill for ages every morning, and no pressure to “do it all.”
Instead, you’ll focus on getting results with strategic actions that save time and energy:
- The right meal balance and timing
- A targeted supplement stack
- Effective workouts that build you up, not burn you out
- Essential recovery tools
- Practical strategies and coaching to help you sustain your success, even in your busiest seasons.
All delivered in a clear, structured program that you can keep up with – even when you can’t make a coaching call.
You Want Results: How Progress Is Measured (Beyond the Scale)
We know you want to see real change, and we’re here to help you get there.
But for women in their 40’s and up, meaningful changes in fat loss or body composition rarely show up first on the scale. Not to mention the daily fluctuations thanks to water weight and hormones that leave you frustrated and tempted to eat chips on the couch all weekend instead of sticking to a plan.
Inside Thrive, we focus on progress markers that reflect actual changes in your body composition and health.
Enter the DEXA scan, the gold standard for assessing body composition.
- If you are local, we’ll let you know where to go to get your pre-program and 10-week comparison scans.
- For regular progress check-ins, or if you choose not to add DEXA, we’ll help you select other objective markers like measurements, progress photos, or even the fit of a too-snug pair of jeans.
- You’ll also track one or more health markers that matter to you: energy, mood, afternoon cravings, strength gains in the gym or whatever you’d like to feel better after 10 weeks together.
You’ll be guided on what to track and when, so you’re not guessing, obsessing, or chasing daily fluctuations. Each progress marker is optional, you’ll choose what feels positive and motivating.
The goal is clarity and confidence that it’s working, not letting the scale run the show.
But What If…?
We hear you wondering if Thrive After 35 fits into real life. Especially when your weeks don’t always go according to plan. Here’s what that actually looks like.
What if I can’t make a coaching call?
What if I can’t make a coaching call?
No problem. All calls are recorded, and the program is designed with multiple support points so you can stay on track even if you can’t attend live sessions.
What if work, travel, or family gets busy?
What if work, travel, or family gets busy?
Perfect. You’ll practice how to keep the non-negotiables going in real life while you have coaches to guide you through tricky weeks. The framework is built to fit in realistic schedules, so the habits you build will work long after our 10 weeks are done.
What if I’ve tried diets and exercise programs before and didn’t see results?
What if I’ve tried diets and exercise programs before and didn’t see results?
You’re not alone. Almost every client who comes to us feels like nothing works anymore. Thrive is designed specifically for 35+ bodies, with built-in adjustments as your body adapts, and enough coaching to help you troubleshoot plateaus.
What if I don’t want to track everything?
What if I don’t want to track everything?
You won’t have to. You’ll be guided on what matters most, and what you can safely modify, so tracking supports progress instead of becoming another to-do. Lower-effort journaling options are available if numbers aren’t your thing.
What if my energy or motivation fluctuates week to week?
What if my energy or motivation fluctuates week to week?
You are in the right place. From perimenopause onward, ebbs and flows are part of the picture. You’ll have structure, coaching, and clear priorities to help you stay steady even when things feel a little off.
What if I don’t have access to a fancy gym?
What if I don’t have access to a fancy gym?
All good! The training program is designed to work in well-equipped home setups, recreation centre gyms, and typical commercial gyms. If you’re unsure whether your setup works, you can email Sasha to confirm what equipment you’ll need.
Your success matters to us.
