About HerStillSpaceHonest, unhurried writing for women in midlife, on perimenopause, identity and coming home to yourself.I’m Dani. I recently completed my Menopause Wellness Coach Diploma, combining formal training with my own lived experience of perimenopause. I live in Dorset, on the south coast of England, and I started HerStillSpace because I couldn’t find the kind of writing I actually needed when perimenopause arrived and nobody warned me what was coming.If you’ve found your way here, you probably already know the feeling.
Her Still Space is a calm, honest place for introverted women navigating perimenopause and midlife. I write from inside the experience, not above it. No jargon. No quick fixes. No performative wellness. Just thoughtful writing, practical support, and honest conversations from someone who is figuring it out too.
