Welcome to Queen Be

Empowering women throughout their midlife and menopause journey

Are you ready to Be a Queen?

 

👑If you’re feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or wondering why things that used to be simple now seem so complicated, you’re not alone.

👑You could be searching for ways to reconnect with yourself, to make sense of it all, and to find your strength again.

👑Or perhaps you are just wondering what happened to yourself – the version of you without brain fog, exhaustion, anxiety or other possible symptoms of menopause…

 

🐝If you’re looking for a safe, supportive community of women who truly get it—who’ve been there and are navigating the same journey—you’re in the right place.

At Queen Be, we’re here to offer you the guidance, knowledge, support and tools you need to thrive through menopause and the midlife transition, not just survive it.

We believe in embracing this life stage with confidence, connection, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Does this sound like you?

Join us to reclaim your well-being, your vitality, and your power – for now and in the future.

The Three Pillars of the Queen Be Experience

Education and Empowerment

Purpose:

To educate women on what they are going through, demystify menopause, and offer tools that allow them to take control of their health and well-being.

Community and Connection

Purpose:

To ensure women feel seen, validated and understood, creating a sense of belonging in a compassionate, supportive and non-judgmental space.

Holistic Well-being and Transformation

Purpose:

To inspire women to see menopause not as a loss, but as an opportunity for growth and transformation; and to guide them through that experience.

Free Menopause and Wellbeing Resources

Did you know that regardless of whether you experience Perimenopause/Menopausal symptoms, your body and brain are going through significant upheaval?

What we do at this stage of our lives has a significant impact on our wellbeing AND our ability to live longer and healthier.

No – this isn’t scaremongering to get you to buy something (because it is free), rather we just want to make sure you are aware of just how important this time of our lives is!

Gatherings - Walk and Talk

We gain so much more when we have the opportunity to share what is going on and celebrate experiences together!

Hosted by Tanya Rutherford, these are a great opportunity to connect, enjoy movement in nature, and ask any questions you may have around the midlife and menopausal transitions.

Walking in person (Roakchmpton/ Emu Park) and Online available!

Creating a Life YOU Love

Our mid-life is a huge transition period for all of us – regardless of menopause symptoms or not. Biologically speaking our brains are shifting out of “Needing to do what it takes to belong” and into what I like to think of as “Making a Difference, My Way”.

It can mean that we get a bit stuck in the gap between what we have done in the past, and our future selves.

You might be asking yourself…

“What is this future self, and how do I get there?”

“What about all the important things I do… I can’t just leave them behind…can I?”

“My family still needs me. I can’t just abandon them for some selfish need for self expression!?!”

“How do I even start?”

I can assure you, it will all be okay.

This isn’t about throwing out the baby with the bathwater (unless you want to). It is about discovering the excitement, the passion,  and the energy that lies within you already.

Habits - Defining our path to successful change

The easiest and fastest way to create lasting change is by creating and implementing habits.

Ever set a New Years “resolution” only to find yourself giving up a few weeks (or days) in?

There is actually a lot of mindset stuff behind forming and maintaining Habits OF YOUR CHOICE. If they were easy, you’d probably be doing them already. So we make sure we take you through a bit of what’s going on and how to choose Habits that will not only be easier to establish (that first bite of the elephant), AND some practical strategies as well.

– There is enough for everyone to win
– Translating your vision and passion into a business can take many forms
– Profit and Purpose shouldn’t be mutually exclusive
– Just because a decision is hard, doesn’t mean it’s wrong

Why Menopause conversations matter

“I’ll never forget when it hit me. First the exhaustion and overwhelming anxiety, and then progressively the restless legs, relentless brain fog – became constant companions. But no one was talking about why. Even my doctor didn’t connect the dots at first—this was perimenopause.”

Rediscovering Your Purpose: A Journey for Gen X Women

Do you ever reminisce about the days when we, Gen X women, were the trailblazers, the ones shaping the future? We were the pioneers of a new generation, distinct from the Baby Boomers, and the world celebrated our uniqueness.

Nurturing the Future: Unleashing Potential for Ourselves and Our Children

No matter where we are in life, whether we are content or yearning for change, it’s a moment to check in with ourselves. How are things going? What fills our hearts with gratitude, and what aspects of our lives do we desire to transform?

You deserve to know what is going on, and to feel your best self!

Queen Be is all about supporting you, whether you are….

– A woman needing to discover more about what menopause (and perimenopause) is all about, and perhaps connect with others also going through this.

– A person born with ovaries seeking information about what is happening hormonally.

– Someone wanting to learn more to better support a friend, family member or colleague in their journey.

Is something holding you back?

“I’m worried about being judged or not fitting in.”

It’s completely normal to feel hesitant about opening up, especially when it comes to something as personal as menopause.

At Queen Be, we’ve built a non-judgmental, supportive space where you can share openly or simply listen, whatever feels comfortable for you. You’ll be joining a community of women who’ve been there, who get it, and who are ready to walk this path with you.

“I don’t have time for something new right now.”

Life during menopause can already feel like too much—adding another thing to your plate might seem overwhelming.

 Queen Be is designed to fit into your life, on your terms. Our resources are available when you are. Whether you’re joining a discussion in the $10 safe space or engaging in deeper transformation with our courses, it’s all flexible and on-demand, allowing you to access the support you need, whenever it suits you.

“I’m not sure this is relevant to me.”

Maybe you’re not sure if you’re experiencing perimenopause, or you think it’s still too early to start thinking about menopause.

But did you know that many symptoms can begin long before menopause itself?

Queen Be is here to help you identify and understand the changes happening in your body and mind, no matter where you are in the journey. You deserve to feel informed and supported at every stage.

“What about my privacy?”

We know how important privacy is, especially when discussing sensitive topics.

Our $10 safe space community is hosted behind a paywall, ensuring a secure, private environment where you can share your experiences without worry. You’re in control of how much or how little you want to engage, and your comfort is always our priority.

“I’m not sure I can justify the cost.”

Investing in yourself can feel difficult, but Queen Be offers a range of support options to fit your budget.

From free resources and community connections to our $10 safe space and transformation courses, there’s something for everyone.

And if you choose to go deeper with our courses or coaching, you’ll be accessing expert guidance and a support system that will make a lasting impact on your well-being. It’s not just an expense—it’s an investment in your health and happiness.

In Your Words...

Sapphire & Diamond Queens - Bespoke Coaching with Tanya Rutherford

"Coaching with Tanya was awesome!"

"Tanya was energetic and passionate and it was infectious. She was able to see through my excuses, calling me out on a few things and helping me set my bar higher. It was exactly the firm but friendly approach I needed.
Since  our sessions I have become much more focused and energised. It really helped me to be held to account. What I've noticed since is that I have a much clearer sense on direction which has allowed me to make more strategic decisions, like turning down work I really didn't want to do - creating space for some really exciting opportunities that have since come my way!

A big part of my focus and energy is how she helped me to find ways to confidently, authentically and genuinely promote myself.

Tanya, I can't thank you enough for sharing your expertise with me. You have incredible skill at helping people find clarity in the complexity of being human. Anyone who is struggling to reach for the stars and find their way forward will benefit from being coaching by you. You are professional, warm and engaging as you help each person find their potential and act as their personal cheer squad as they smash their goals.

Thanks so much,

Kate."

"Tanya is easy to talk to, gives good, sound and easy to follow advice that really made a difference"

"I found Tanya to be kind, empathetic and she inspired me to think differently. I alwyas felt relaxed, listened to and confident to undertake the suggestions we formed during our sessions together.

We focused on the areas I was really struggling with and talked about ways to approach things. I realised that I wasn't too far off the mark with many of my concerns and I just needed to take a slightly different approach. These sessions really helped to feel more comfortable that my gut feeling was right and that sparked confidence in putting some new approaches into action.

I really appreciated these sessions.

Christie."

Rockhampton, Queens-land

Gudamuli and welcome to the Queenbe website. We wish to acknowledge the traditional custodians, the Darumbal nation, from whose lands we create, broadcast and deliver from, and recognize their continuous connection to country, sea, and community. We pay our respects to them and to their Elders past, present, and emerging. We also share an appreciation of their deep knowledge of storytelling, an age-old practice that spans generations, cultures, and millennia. It’s through stories that wisdom is passed, histories preserved, and connections are. made. It’s a tradition that has breathed life into the very essence of our identities and communities.
