about me
I'll soon be sharing much more of my menopause journey and why I do what I do now.
I hope to be of some inspiration to you, someone who's 'been there', really gets where you're at but also empowers you to have a better menopause
my story
before......
Looking back, I believe I was in perimenopause by 40, however, it was not diagnosed until almost 6 years later. I just didn’t seriously think this was the cause of all my symptoms.
And they say life begins at 40!
Well I'm not sure about that, but a massive shift in my life certainly began then. Of course, I didn't realise it at the time...
​
I had reached my career goal. I had fulfilled a personal goal, to travel around Australia. I was happily married. Until I wasn't…
​
It took less than 3 years for my marriage to begin to disintegrate. I lost multiple jobs back to back. I lost my home. I was broken.
Ultimately in December 2020 I hit my lowest of lows.
​
Yet here I am just a few years later and I'm happier than I've ever been!
How did this happen?
​
Opportunity, decision and believe it or not - menopause!
'the making of me'
My aim is to help you find yourself again, identify the areas of your life you would like to upgrade and build the confidence to do something about it.
​
Midlife DOES NOT have to be miserable - arming yourself with the right information and support can make it all much more manageable, enabling you to take brave action, make bold decisions and move closer to your version of
Badass
after......
Although it may have been menopause that broke me initially - it was most definitely also the making of me! It gave me my purpose - to serve other menopausal women.
​
I've been featured in multiple press articles, magazines and guested on podcasts. I’ve even been on national morning telly! It still seems surreal to be saying these things as it's a world away from the dark place I was in in 2020.
​
I have created unlimited confidence for myself, I am proud to be a menopause warrior and I'm truly grateful to be able to share my own experiences, use my voice to empower others AND enable you to do the same.
I founded the business in 2021, originally called Menopausitivity, to provide resources and guidance for menopause support and relief but it has evolved a lot over the last three years!
​
I recently rebranded - unveiling my own new name as well as a new name for the business and it's underlying ethos...
​
daitani!
​
It is derived from the Japanese 'daitan' which means boldness, intrepidity, courage - pretty much everything I now stand for and want to empower you with!
Since battling my way through perimenopause, I have upgraded my own midlife, using my ethos of brave, bold, badass in everything I do so now I want to help you upgrade yours, whatever that might look like for you.
​
If it's menopause support you need, I've got you.
If you want to improve your lifestyle, I've got you.
​
If you want to regain self-confidence and belief, I've got you.
If you want to start, or level up your own business - I've got you!
I mentor primarily from experience but I have also completed the Dr. Louise Newson 'Confidence in the Menopause' online training and am currently studying to become qualified in Personal Training and Nutrition. I am a sleep specialist, focusing on CBT and ACT and I'm also a Certified Coaching Master and Course Creator.
​
I really do want you to rediscover yourself, rebrand your identity and start living the life you know you deserve!
​
And to do this, I have developed the 'Becoming BADASS Blueprint'.
This isn't just another online program, it's a mindset shift - it's a way of life.
​
My unique hybrid method of coaching, mentoring and training will set you up for life, from peri to postmenopause and beyond - empowering you to be your best self and achieve your goals.

Hi - I'm Debs Daitani!
how I use my story
to help you change yours
My clarity
Now in post-menopause, I have a vast range of knowledge across all 3 menopausal stages and have experienced almost all of the 34 main associated symptoms, and then some!
My connection
Acceptance of this new stage of life and receiving the correct treatment totally changed my life! I can now fully embrace my own menopause journey and it’s why I now do what I do! I would love nothing more than to help you achieve the same thing!
My confidence
I used to struggle massively with a lack of self confidence. I hated looking at myself, hearing my own voice and literally ran away from the camera! Menopause only made that worse.
But through a combination of self development, mindset and finding my mission – my self belief and confidence is like never before!
