About Me

Hello Beautiful Soul,

I am Aminata, a biochemist, women’s health researcher and menopause coach, passionate about helping women over 40 navigate midlife with confidence, clarity and purpose.

My journey began in the corporate world, working for Unilever, a major food and personal care company and AstraZeneca, a pharmaceutical company, where I gained deep insights into the science of health, wellness and longevity. But over time, I realised that true well-being isn’t just about what we consume — it’s about how we live, how we heal and how we evolve.

This realisation led me to create The Next Chapter Guild, a sanctuary for women, where we embrace midlife as a powerful transition, not a decline. I believe that this stage of life isn’t about fading into the background — it’s about stepping boldly into a new era of strength, wisdom and self-empowerment.

Now, my work is more holistic and intentional — blending science with natural wellness, financial empowerment and personal growth. Through my research, coaching and digital resources, I help women redefine midlife by focusing on:
✔ Menopause wellness — understanding our bodies and making empowered choices.
✔ Financial freedom — building sustainable wealth and security for the next chapter.
✔ Sustainable living — embracing eco-conscious, culturally-rooted practices.
✔ Relocation and reinvention — helping black women explore life beyond borders, including moving back to Africa.

Sharing My Midlife Transformation on YouTube

I’ve recently launched my YouTube channel, where I share my own midlife transformation — how I’m navigating change, redefining success and embracing a more intentional life. Through personal stories, practical strategies and expert insights, I hope to inspire other women to embrace midlife as a time of growth and possibility.

Make It African: The Podcast & YouTube Channel

I’m also launching "Make It African", a podcast that explores why this is Africa’s century. Through insightful discussions, historical perspectives and real-world stories, I’ll be looking into the economic, cultural and social resurgence happening across the continent — and why now is the time for women, entrepreneurs and visionaries to claim their space in Africa’s future.

I believe midlife is a powerful transition, not a crisis—it’s the opportunity to make the rest of your life the best of your life. Whether you're looking for guidance in wellness, financial planning or personal reinvention, I’m here to walk with you on this journey.

Welcome to a new era of thriving. ✨
