About Holly Finn:

Holly Finn, Founder and Coach at A BetterPause Coaching. I empower women to navigate the complex challenges of menopause with science-backed strategies and compassionate support.

My own journey through perimenopause left me feeling burnt out, anxious, and unwell, but I fought to find answers and transform my health, work, and parenting.

Now, I help women not only reclaim their health and energy but also discover who they are becoming in the second half of life—a time of profound transformation for the brain, body, and spirit.
