“Tanya has incredible skill at helping people find clarity in the complexity of being human. If you are struggling to reach for the stars and find your way forward… this is for you!”

Let’s Be Honest…

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.

Testimonials

Kate Shares:

“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.”

Christie shares:

“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.”

🐝 Where Did Queen Be Begin?

Queen Be was born out of both personal experience and deep professional insight. When Tanya Rutherford entered perimenopause, she—like many—felt confused and unseen. Her curiosity as a coach and learning designer led her to dig deeper, and what she found became the seed of something bigger.

Queen Be is her way of creating the support and learning space she wishes she had—one that’s inclusive, empowering, and transformation-focused.

🌟 What We Stand For

At Queen Be, our values aren’t just words on a page—they shape every conversation, course, coaching session, and connection. These are the principles that guide how we show up, and how we walk alongside you.

💛 1. Compassionate Curiosity

We believe in meeting ourselves and each other with gentleness and curiosity—not judgment.
Growth begins when we ask, “What’s really going on here?” and truly listen.
We honour the complexity of each woman’s journey and hold space for her to explore it with openness.

💛 2. Empowerment through Education

Knowledge is power—but self-understanding is liberation.
We offer tools, insights, and learning pathways so you can trust your body, your choices, and your voice.
Because you deserve to become your own best advocate.

💛 3. Real Connection

Healing and transformation don’t happen in isolation.
We create brave, inclusive spaces where women feel seen, supported, and never alone—spaces where laughter, truth, and vulnerability are welcome.
Real community is built on empathy, authenticity, and mutual respect.

💛 4. Whole-of-Self Wellness

Mind. Body. Emotions. Spirit.
You are more than your symptoms, more than your roles.
We support the whole you—because well-being isn’t one-size-fits-all.
Together, we explore what well feels like—for you.

💛 5. Purposeful Growth

Change is inevitable. Growth is intentional.
We don’t just help you cope—we help you turn transitions into turning points.
It’s about uncovering deeper meaning, finding your voice again, and choosing what’s next with clarity and confidence.

💛 6. Collective Impact

When one woman rises, she brings others with her.
Your personal growth is powerful—and it’s part of something bigger.
Together, we’re rewriting the stories and shifting the systems that shape women’s lives.
We’re building a ripple effect of empowered changemakers.

 What is Our Vision?

👑 We aspire towards a world where midlife women are not dismissed or diminished …

but recognised, supported, and celebrated as powerful change-makers in their own lives and communities.

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.
