Helping women 40+ create simple yet powerful wellness habits for a thriving midlife.FlourishHer founder. How? Why this mattered to me?

I'm Michelle a 49 year old midlife woman and Wellness Habits Coach. I live in Canterbury with my husband Rob and our 2 teens, Sonny & Martha. I've always worked in roles where people have been at the centre of what I do...... but I'll admit I haven't always looked after my mind & body. An unbalanced diet, excess processed food and alcohol, no exercise and a smoker with no focus on my mental health. My weight was increasing and generally, I wasn't feeling great. Starting a family in my 30's prompted a couple of wellness changes, but the magic moment came for me when at 35, I started my career in Health & Wellness. I learned the key principles in what supports us to live in better health, such as; nutrition, healthy weight loss, sleep, movement and emotional wellbeing . Along with techniques on how to apply them in real life. I've been priviledged to have worked with hundreds of adults, over 1000's of hours and I've seen how small, steps and personalised support can help people thrive in their life. In short it changed my whole life. I walked my talk, explored and applied the health training/behaviour change techniques to myself and by taking one step at a time, I began to thrive in my mind & body, which is where I am today. As a midlife, perimenopausal woman, I'm fully aware of the transition our body goes through during this phase of our lives along with the challenges that may arise. It's my passion and purpose in helping women like you to thrive, feel good and live the midlife you want.

Who knew a chilly November night could spark our curiosity? ✨

What an up night of discovery at FlourishHer & The Midnight Muddler’s Alcohol Free Taster night.

Despite the cold & rain, women gathered in the cosy surroundings to connect, laugh and explore a fabulous world of elevated alcohol-free drinks, from functional drinks and sparkling teas to de-alcoholised w**es, tonics and alcohol-free spirits.

As we navigate midlife, understanding how alcohol can affect our sleep, mood and wellbeing becomes increasingly valuable (put mildly) And with so many exciting alternatives available, why not get curious about our choices?

A massive thanks to the wonderful Maria from , who shared her knowledge with such warmth and enthusiasm. Everyone left with fresh insights, new favourites to explore and a lovely goody bag. One lucky Flourisher also took home a sparkling tea gift set! A huge thank you to Kayti who also supported us on the night and the Cafe du Soleil team. ✨

This is what FlourishHer is all about. Creating space to connect, discover new possibilities and make choices that feel good for YOU. 🧡

Curious about FlourishHer or exploring your own next chapter through coaching? I’d love to connect with you.

What I'm loving about midlife is that we get to question the habits we've carried for years.

And sometimes, the smallest shifts can make an illuminating difference to how we feel.

That's at the 🧡 of Flourish.

Reconnecting with ourselves, tuning into what matters and making choices that support the life we want to live.

On Monday evening, we're bringing that philosophy to life in a rather delicious way🍸✨
Together with the vibrant Maria from , we'll be exploring the world of alcohol-free drinks and discovering and tasting some inspiring new possibilities.

There'll be fascinating insights into alcohol and midlife wellbeing, expert guidance, fabulous flavours and, of course, the warmth and connection of FlourishHer.

What? - You don't need to be giving up alcohol to come along!! Just bring your curiosity and maybe be a bit thirsty 😄

We have such a vibrant , uplifting evening planned for Monday evening.

Beautiful sparkling teas, botanical spritzes, alcohol-free w**es, cocktails and intriguing functional drinks (some we won’t be able to try …unless we want to go clubbing after 😜)
But here’s what makes this evening particularly special…
We’ll also briefly explore how alcohol can affect us differently in midlife, why some familiar habits might no longer leave us feeling quite so good, and then we’ll dive into the wonderful alternatives available.

Think expert knowledge, tasting, discovering, asking questions, laughter and connection with other women.🍸✨

No judgement. No pressure. Just curiosity, choice and a fabulous evening together.

It’s just 1 week to go until our November FlourishHer in collaboration with the incredible Maria . During perimenopause ….. it’s pretty darn likely your relationship with the glass of vino may change ( though not forever I’ve been told) unwelcome side effects … nudge us to look at other choices and gently or not so gently nudge us to adapt. .. and review or current lifestyle choices ✨ Now what’s wonderful here is the ability to adapt is a skill and those who embrace it with openness and curiosity … feel inspired ( get the glow) -Fact. On Monday 2nd we’ll be exploring what the latest, tastiest Alcohol Free and Functional drinks around right now with expert Maria. We are SO lucky to have Maria join us. She is bringing a wide range of amazing drinks for us all to sample. Plus there’ll be a sample or two and one lucky flourisher will receive a gift. It’s gonna be …. Blindin ( 😂 havent said that word for years !!). Amazingly we still have a few tickets left! Fancy joining us - link in bio. New women always welcomed warmly 💫💛. Love Michelle.

We did it…
We made it happen… We took action ..
Lynsey travelled from Scotland to London for her birthday and we met face to face for the first time 🧡
We met ‘virtually’ in July 2025, we were partnered together during our coaching training with Australian based with global reach Beautiful You Coaching Academy with the phenomenal Julie Parker
From the get go myself and Lynsey | Life Story Coach + Script Coordinator were aligned, our connection felt so natural. Our Beautiful You Coaching Academy experience was inspiring & joyful, with expert training and beautiful likeminded students from all over the 🌍. Over the year we’ve spent many hours online, coaching, discovering, challenging,growing, holding space and really cheering each other on.
Lynsey supported me in not only my growth as a coach but also with developing practices that nurture my self-love & life . Practices part of my life to this day , thank you Lynsey 🙏🏻 ✨

So we did it, we showed up face to face, it was 4 hrs (felt like 10 mins) of dazzling, uplifting heartfelt magic and connection.

Sounds like I’m over reacting … but really … am I? With the flood of AI ..is it real or fake..…. this real human touch and face to face connection… filled my heart and soul with love and lightness… And the after effect ….well ..It’s glow up to the max 💛✨💫

When YOU make it happen…
Take the action
Show up and …
Prioritise what matters to YOU
YOU feel the Joy, connection and aliveness ☀️
What’s that thing you want to say yes to? Go on, take a step 💛✨

Let’s chat about alcohol and midlife.

For many women, juggling the demands of life, stress and anxiety can leave us reaching for a glass of w**e to switch off at the end of the day.
Yet, as we move through perimenopause and menopause, alcohol can become harder to tolerate, disrupting our sleep, affecting our mood and generally making us feel more frazzle than flourish…. And no one wants that hey!

But here’s the magic…

Midlife can give us a wonderful opportunity to pause, return home to ourselves and get curious.

To tune into what matters, what we need and, importantly, how we feel and WANT to feel.
Not through rules, restriction or perfection.
But through small, intentional lifestyle choices that support our wellbeing and help us flourish.

In just 2 weeks time, I’ll be collaborating with Maria Easley, founder of The Midnight Muddler, for a very special Alcohol-Free Taster Evening.

We’ll gently explore how alcohol can affect us in midlife before Maria, drinks industry expert and World Alcohol-Free Awards judge, guides us through a fabulous selection of premium alcohol-free w**es, sparkling teas, botanical alternatives and more.
An evening of connection, curiosity, discovery and delicious possibilities!

Monday 2 November | 6.30–8.30pm Café du Soleil, Canterbury £30pp
Come and discover something new with us.
At the mo we have limited tickets remaining.

Reach out with any questions at all, I’d love to hear from you.
New women welcomed warmly
We cant wait to meet you.  Michelle and Maria 🧡✨
