👑 Welcome to Queen Be – Where Midlife Becomes Your Most Powerful Chapter

At Queen Be, we walk beside women—just like you—who are navigating the messy, beautiful, complex journey of midlife and menopause.

Led by Tanya Rutherford, certified coach, learning designer, and passionate advocate for women’s growth, Queen Be isn’t just a community. It’s your space to reflect, reconnect, and rise.

If you’re feeling the shifts—physical, emotional, identity—you’re not alone. And you don’t have to figure it all out solo. Whether you’re after personal coaching, expert guidance, or soul-deep support, we’re here to help you rediscover your clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Ready to explore your next step?

We believe menopause is not the end of youth—it’s the beginning of deep power.
This is your chance to step fully into your next evolution—with tools, guidance, and support that honour the whole of you.

Midlife and menopause? It can feel like everything’s unraveling.

Your brain feels foggy. Your body’s doing unpredictable things. Emotions run wild, and no one seems to get it—not your doctor, not your workplace, not even you sometimes.

Hi, I’m Tanya. When I hit perimenopause, I didn’t know what was happening. No one had ever talked about it. Even my GP seemed confused. But I knew something wasn’t right, so I started digging.

What I found was life-changing.

I learned that what we go through in midlife isn’t just about hormones—it’s about identity, purpose, energy, and reclaiming control over our story.

It’s also about what comes next.

That journey—plus a heartbreaking family experience—led me here. To creating a space where no woman feels alone in this. To coaching women not just through menopause, but into a new, empowered way of living.

Because this season of change?

It’s not an ending. It’s a becoming.

🔒 Tanya works with a small number of clients to ensure personalised, deep support.

Sometimes we need someone to help us hear our own voice.

Queen Be coaching is here to support you in rediscovering your clarity, confidence, and capacity—especially when life feels a little (or a lot) off track.

Whether you’re:

• Feeling stuck, scattered, or second-guessing yourself

• Wanting to make bold changes, but unsure where to begin

• Tired of managing everyone else’s needs while losing yourself in the process…

You don’t have to navigate it alone.

🧭 With our coaching programs, you’ll receive:

• Space to reflect and be heard without judgment

• Tools and strategies to support your growth

• Encouragement to take aligned, powerful action

✨ It’s not about having the answers. It’s about asking the right questions—and supporting you as you uncover your own.

Our Mission and Social Imperative

Learn Grow Become is a certified social enterprise that empowers women and students to build confidence, direction, and purpose through accessible, trauma-informed learning and coaching experiences.

Our business operates through two core programs:

Learn2Learn supports students entering or returning to tertiary education, with a focus on disadvantaged and Indigenous learners. The program delivers practical, strengths-based tools to build academic confidence, learning strategies, and a sense of belonging. It includes a culturally appropriate wrap-around version co-designed for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.

Queen Be supports women navigating midlife transitions—particularly perimenopause and menopause—through group coaching, guided programs, and community spaces that rebuild wellbeing, identity, and life direction.

As part of our social contract, we:

– Offer free access to menopause information and relatable, evidence-based resources for all (through our Queens Be Free membership);
– Provide subsidised program access to women recovering from domestic violence who are ready to rebuild their lives (please reach out for more information); and
– Offer free access to culturally appropriate programs for Indigenous learners (through our Learn2Learn programs).

While our work is trauma-informed, we are not a crisis or therapeutic service—we support those ready for growth.
We align with SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 5 (Gender Equality) to create lasting social impact.
