Kara's Journey to Becoming a Certified Menopause Coach
In December 2023, everything changed. I was training for a marathon with the goal of qualifying for the Boston Marathon—feeling strong, motivated, and in control. But as the holidays approached, I suddenly felt like I had hit a wall. My energy plummeted, and I found myself battling intense fatigue, brain fog, poor muscle recovery, night sweats, interrupted sleep, and even hair loss. A foot injury sidelined my running, and I no longer recognized how I felt in my own body.
Refusing to accept this as my new normal, I began digging into what was happening. That deep dive led me to uncover the often-overlooked realities of perimenopause and menopause. What I discovered transformed not only my perspective—but my career focus.
In February 2025, I became a certified menopause coach. Since then, I've dedicated myself to educating and supporting women through social media, client interactions (as a practicing physical therapist), and community workshops. Together with my team, I’ve helped develop a comprehensive program designed to guide women through midlife transitions with knowledge, tools, and compassion.
Midlife can feel overwhelming—it’s full of physical, emotional, and lifestyle changes. But it’s also an opportunity for transformation. I’m here to help you navigate this journey, reconnect with your strength, and become the empowered woman you’ve always been.
The symptoms of perimenopause and menopause are often misunderstood, minimized, or dismissed. My goal is to help you better understand your body, make sustainable lifestyle changes, and advocate for yourself in healthcare settings—so you feel heard, supported, and equipped to thrive.
