This is not a generic coaching call with a pre-built script. It is a strategic, personalised implementation session where we apply the Standards Over Rules Method to your unique life, your specific challenges, and your actual goals. We cut through the overwhelm and build a clear, actionable roadmap that fits around your real life.
Before we even meet, I will send you a detailed questionnaire so that every minute of our time together is focused on exactly what matters most to you. You will leave with total clarity on your next steps - and no confusion about where to begin.
I send you a detailed intake questionnaire covering your history, your struggles, your goals and your real life. This ensures our time together is laser-focused on what matters most to you - not a generic agenda.
We work through your specific situation using all four pillars of my Standards Over Rules Method: nutrition, movement, mindset and stress management. No scripts. No generic advice. Just honest, practical strategy built around your life.
I deliver a clear, written personalised action plan - your specific next steps, your tailored standards, and everything you need to move forward with confidence. No overwhelm. No confusion. Just clarity.
You can have the best nutrition strategy and the right exercise approach. Without the mindset piece, it still feels like a fight. These 13 guided meditations are the missing piece - specific, targeted support for every moment that has ever derailed your best efforts.
Created specifically for women over 40. By someone who has lived every one of these challenges. Each one is under 10 minutes and addresses a precise moment in your journey: the craving, the bad weigh-in, the social event, the plateau, the old habit pulling you back.

My transformation
100+ lbs lost naturally in midlife. During perimenopause.
No pills. No injections. No calorie counting. No extreme programmes. No quick fixes. Just a woman who finally stopped following other people's rules and started setting her own standards.
These are not afterthoughts. They are genuinely powerful tools - the same philosophy, the same approach, the same no-shame, no-judgement framework. Completely free. Because I want you to experience what this feels like before you commit to anything.
Sugar is hiding in places you would never expect - and it is undermining your best efforts. This guide cuts through the confusion and shows you exactly where it is lurking, and what to do about it.

Get the Free Guide →Every week I talk about the mindset piece, the real-life strategies, the things that actually work - not just the theory but the honest, practical implementation. The shame, the science, the stuff nobody else says out loud. If you want to know whether my approach resonates with you before committing to anything, this is where to start.
Listen to the Fab Fit Forty Plus podcast →"Working with Vera has been such an eye-opener. I really thought I was eating healthily. But Vera showed me how much hidden sugar and junk was in those foods I thought were good for me. I've still got a ways to go, but I already feel so much better - and so much more aware of what I'm putting in my body."
"I was doing hours of cardio and seeing basically no results. Then Vera steered me toward strength training. I was super hesitant at first - but it's already made such a noticeable difference in my body composition. And here is what surprised me most: I actually love the feeling of lifting weights now. Who knew!"
"I just thought it was a natural part of getting older. But what I love most about Vera's approach is how personalised it is. She helped me see I wasn't being very honest with myself. I am absolutely not resigned to just getting bigger because I'm getting older."
"I have listened to the Cravings visualisation at least 50 times. It has saved me from mindless eating more times than I can count."
"The Future You visualisation makes me cry every single time. In the best way. It reminds me why I am doing this and why my health transformation matters so deeply."
Every offer on this page is built on the same foundation. Not a diet. Not a programme. A method built from the inside out, rooted in self-respect rather than self-punishment.
The first step is not a meal plan. It is identifying and releasing the story you have been telling yourself about why this has not worked - and why it will this time.
Rules are someone else's. Standards are yours. When you set standards that honour your body and your life, you stop rebelling against them. That is where lasting change begins.
Not one pillar in isolation. All five, balanced and integrated around your real life. Because sustainable health transformation for women over 40 requires the whole picture.
The goal is not just a before-and-after - it is so much deeper than that. It is a life where your health and your ambitions reinforce each other - where looking after yourself is not a sacrifice, it is the foundation.
Most programmes give you rules to follow - do this, do not eat that, track everything, hit this number. My method teaches you to set your own internal standards based on what honours your body and supports your actual life. It is empowerment, not compliance. Transformation, not restriction. And because the standards come from you, you do not rebel against them.
Absolutely. I lost 100+ pounds during perimenopause using this exact approach. The method specifically addresses the unique challenges women over 40 face - hormonal changes, metabolism shifts, body composition changes, decades of previous attempts and the specific shame that builds up over years. This was built for exactly where you are.
No. One of the core principles of this method is that we do not obsess over numbers. We focus on the Golden Food Standards, listening to your body, and building sustainable habits. No calorie counting. No stressful tracking. No calorie allowances. If you want to understand what is actually in your food, the Sugar Decoder Guide is a great free starting point.
This is not a 30-day challenge or a quick fix. My Standards Over Rules Method creates sustainable, lasting transformation. Most women notice shifts in energy and mindset within the first two to four weeks, and physical changes within four to eight weeks. Real transformation takes time. But it lasts - and that is the entire point.
That is exactly who this is for. I tried everything too - for over two decades. What I learned is that it was not my fault those programmes did not work. They were built on restriction and shame. This method is built on self-respect and self-knowledge. That is what makes it different. And what finally made it work for me.
Before the session, a detailed personalised questionnaire. During the session, one hour of focused, personalised strategy applying my Standards Over Rules Method to your specific situation - nutrition, movement, mindset, stress management. After the session, a written personalised roadmap delivered within 48 hours. Full details and booking are on the dedicated VIP Strategy Session page.
Completely. No experience is needed. Each meditation is under 10 minutes, requires no equipment, and is designed to be accessible to anyone. Many of the women who have found them most powerful had never tried meditation before. The free 8-minute meditation is a perfect way to experience the style before investing in the full Mindset Transformation Collection.
Yes. This was created by a busy woman, for busy women. It is designed to fit around your real life - not require you to reorganise everything around a diet. The meditations are under 10 minutes each. The VIP session is one focused hour. The free resources take minutes to access. If time has ever been the reason you have put your health last, this is the approach built specifically for that.
No problem at all. I want to make sure we are a great fit and that I am the right coach for you. Email your question directly to [email protected] and I will respond personally. I read every single message.
The goal is not a dress size. It is not a number on a scale. It is the version of your life where your health is no longer the thing holding you back. That version is closer than you think.
You have been waiting for the right time, the right plan, the right version of yourself. But the version of you who is ready? She is already here. She is the one who kept reading this far.
A dedicated tool to help you understand and work with cravings in the moment. Not by white-knuckling through them - by actually understanding what they are and what they need.
