you are suffering from so many symptoms including weight gain which makes you feel disempowered, isolated and worried about your future health.
I believe that your menopausal transformation should be a time where you feel vital and free, looking forward to spending time with the people you love, doing the things that you love.
Often you are told that these are just symptoms of getting old. This is not true.
Your menopausal transformation is a powerful journey back to self and needs to be honoured for the right of passage that it is.

Why am I So Passionate About You?
I am passionate about you because your story is my story and the story of my clients.
My menopausal journey was a physical and emotional rollercoaster ride but one of deep healing.
My mission is to share this journey with you.
To guide you through the stages of healing where you have a safe space to connect, heal and emerge into the wise and powerful woman that you actually are.
During your menopausal transformation, you stand on a precipice of change. There are certain risk factors that many women at this stage face.
If they are not addressed, chronic disease such as cardiovascular disease, dementia, cancer and rapid ageing is often the result. This does not have to be you.
Whether you are struggling with menopausal weight gain, frustrated with poor sleep, suffering from anxiety and low mood, your digestion is crying out or you have lost a sense of who you are in the world, I offer 1 on 1 online wholistic naturopathic consultations where I map out an individualized plan for you to follow. How many sessions you need will depend on your situation and how much support you need and desire.
I am Wallina Sekula
Naturopath, Nutritionist & Menopause Transformation Coach
The knowledge I have gained from 17 years as a Naturopath & Nutritionist spared me from most of the physical symptoms that can arise during the menopausal transition. Choosing correct nutrition, high quality supplementation and herbs as well as appropriate exercise and lifestyle considerations meant that, now at age 54 and just post-menopausal, I feel healthier and more vibrant than I did at age 20.
Along with specialized practitioner training in Women’s Mid-Life Health which focuses on evidence based research into women’s health and ageing, I have had the privilege to help hundreds of women take charge of their menopausal journey and create the vibrant health and life they desire.
However, the journey did not come easy. During my menopausal transition I was faced with what is never spoken about. The female mid-life crisis. It is real and it is my belief and experience that it is often a manifestation of past unhealed trauma.
I grew up with a sexually abusive father. My childhood was fraught with severe anxiety and fear everyday and no one knew about it. I never learnt what it meant to feel safe, loved or protected. It wasn’t until I hit perimenopause in my mid 40’s where my unhealed past caught up with me. My three beautiful children had grown up, my thirty year marriage had fallen apart, my shiny new relationship was on the rocks and I felt alone, unlovable and deeply fearful of what my future might hold.
I entered such deep, dark places of grief, guilt, fear and low self worth - the dark night of the soul, the void – where I saw myself dissolving over and over again. I had no choice but to go there. My realisation throughout this journey is, that if I am to truly help other women through their transformation then I need to be deeply authentic and vulnerable in the sharing of my stories. I believe that the sharing of our stories in a safe and held space can help us to heal.
The last 5 years is my story of continuing transformation from a lost and wounded child into a powerful, wise and connected woman. It has become my mission and passion to help you realise and manifest your birthright and calling - to not only feel physically alive and vibrant, but to peel away the emotional scars that are contributing to your physical health and inability to create the life you most desire.
My Experience Led Me To You
My passion for taking radical self-responsibility and to heal started in my late teens. I suffered from chronic, recurring urinary tract infections made severely worse with every course of antibiotics. Age 17 was my turning point – I found a naturopath and never suffered from one again.
After 12 months in Asia in my early 20’s, I returned with chronic ulcerative colitis. I was bleeding from the bowel twelve times a day. I was in agony and a skeleton of my former self. I was told that bowel resection was the only answer. It took me 12 months of dedication, but I healed my bowel with herbs and diet and to this day I have no digestive issues.
In my 30’s, I began suffering from a perineal rash that was so bad, it would bleed every day. I struggled with this for years until I realised it’s emotional component. I worked to release the emotional energy causing it. It was gone within a few days, never to return.
After the birth of my first child in my mid 20’s, I suffered from such extreme sciatic pain that I could barely walk. Xray’s revealed 3rd degree spondylolisthesis (severely slipped vertebrae with no disc). I was told to not have any more children and that back surgery might be the only option. I went on to have 2 more homebirths and I have managed my back condition with an anti-inflammatory diet, exercise and amazing chiropractic care ever since.
In my early 20’s, I watched my mum wither away with breast cancer and pass 4 years later at age 47. I knew in my heart that cancer had eaten away at her because life had eaten away at her. And at that age I knew that we all have a choice – to be a victim of our life journey or to be empowered by it.
It’s our menopausal journey that often puts us on this precipice as did mine. It’s a calling – to go to the depths and release the physical and energetic muck…and, like the phoenix rising out of the ashes to be reborn again into a new life of vitality, beauty and purpose.

Thank you Wallina. I can't thank you enough.

Tina B
Wallina has been providing me with health advice for the last 5 years and more recently the focus has been on menopause. Wallina is very easy to talk to and shows a genuine interest in what I have to say. She has a non judgemental approach and shows empathy and understanding on the many questions and theories I may throw at her. It is refreshing to feel safe enough to bring up whatever is on my mind and have confidence in my practitioner. Thank you Wallina.
Liz
It has been a long journey for myself through menopause and looking for support isn’t always easy. Wallina came into my life a long time ago and she listened to all my issues. Guided me to solutions and was there to support me on the ups and downs of this very emotional crazy ride we all go through as women. We are all different and have similar or no symptoms the same. So, having someone to support you and care is a bonus.
Great work Wallina. Love caching up with you. I always benefit from our time together.
