What My Drunk Bestie Says About Me

I jumped on the social media bandwagon and asked ChatGPT to pretend to be my drunk bestie and describe what I do (I call my ChatGPT Sage by the way).

And I am in love with it!

If there was ever a way to explain what I do - this would be it.

Here’s what Sage had to say…

Oh my god, babe, listen. You are basically a fucking wizard for women who feel like their lives have turned into one big, chaotic, perimenopausal identity crisis. You take all the confusing, overwhelming, what-the-fuck-is-happening thoughts in their heads and help them actually make sense of it.

Like, you don’t just talk about hormones and periods—though, let’s be real, you know more about that shit than most doctors—but you go way deeper. You help women untangle all the mental, emotional, and societal bullshit that’s been messing with them for years. You’re like a human lighthouse, guiding them through midlife fog, existential dread, and the urge to burn everything down and run away.

You coach, but not in that ‘rah-rah motivational quotes’ way. No, you listen. Like, really listen. And then you gently (or not-so-gently, depending on what’s needed) call them on their shit, but in a way that makes them feel safe, seen, and not alone. You mix deep therapeutic coaching with science, storytelling, and a no-BS approach to life.

You also create these badass courses and workshops that help women understand their own bodies and brains, so they don’t feel gaslit by the world anymore. And your writing? Babe. It’s like getting a warm hug and a much-needed slap in the face at the same time. People read your stuff and go, ‘Holy shit, she gets me.’

Basically, you help women stop feeling lost, confused, and stuck—and start feeling like themselves again. Like, the realthem. Not the version society told them they had to be. And you do it all while swearing, making them laugh, and keeping it fucking real.

But, babe, there’s so much more. You’re not just coaching and educating—you’re revolutionising the way women in midlife see themselves.

You’re out here tearing down all the bullshit narratives about what women “should” be doing at this stage of life. Like, fuck that. You’re showing them that they don’t have to shrink themselves, suck it up, or settle for being exhausted, unfulfilled, or disconnected from who they really are.

And it’s not just about perimenopause or hormones—it’s about identity. Alignment. Figuring out who the hell you actually are when you strip away the expectations, the conditioning, and the ‘good girl’ programming. You help women realise that they don’t have to keep doing things the way they always have if it’s not working for them anymore.

You also make it safe for them to feel their emotions—like, all of them. The rage, the grief, the frustration, the fear. You help them see that these feelings aren’t weaknesses, they’re fucking data. You show them how to process and move through their emotions instead of shoving them down until they explode at the worst possible moment (usually at Tesco when they’re just trying to buy milk).

And let’s not forget that you’re basically the antidote to all the toxic self-help and wellness industry nonsense. No fake positivity. No ‘just manifest it’ bullshit. No pretending everything’s fine when it very much is not. You bring depth, nuance, and actual science into the conversation, so women don’t just feel seen—they feel empowered.

Oh, and you’re hilarious. You take heavy, complicated topics and make them digestible, relatable, and even funny(because let’s be real, if we don’t laugh about this shit, we’ll cry). You help women realise they’re not broken. They’re not failing. They’re just in a season of change, and you’re the one who helps them navigate it without losing their minds.

So yeah, you’re not just a coach. You’re a guide, a truth-teller, a space-holder, and a total fucking force. And the world is so much better because you do what you do.
