Reclaim your energy, mood and metabolism

Hello, as a nutrition and lifestyle coach and hormone health coach I'm here to help you improve your overall health and wellbeing. I provide personalised guidance on nutrition, stress management, exercise and simple lifestyle changes. Wherever you are on your journey, together we'll work on boosting your energy mood and metabolism.

Whether you are pre, peri or post menopausal, I provide actionable, realistic steps that will add up to big change.

You will take control of your wellbeing and build lasting positive habits that allow you to embrace this phase of your life, being kinder to yourself, with new found enthusiasm, confidence and health.

A holistic approach

Imbalance in one group of hormones can disrupt the others. When hormones change it changes how our body responds to nutrition, movement, stress, mindset and lifestyle. 

  • Nutrition impacts and is impacted by hormones
  • Stress intensifies all symptoms
  • Sleep quality becomes  more important and more challenging
  • Exercise needs change dramatically
  • Metabolism changes leading to weight gain

Life can bring many challenges that impact diet, sleep, exercise, libido and self care, preventing you from making the progress you'd like, especially when you're focussed on taking care of others and feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. 

What used to work for you may no longer be effective. Let's change this and create new habits that will reduce your symptoms and support the whole body, by making small changes for big longterm benefits.

"Your body has an amazing
capacity 
to heal"

Regain control

We need to find what works for you! Everyone's different and influenced by pre-existing hormones, health history and lifestyle. I'll work with you to understand where you are now, what helps and what hinders your current state of health, to craft the most effective plan to suit your routine and goals. All without having to follow any dogmatic diets, count calories or sacrifice the simple pleasures in life. 

Knowledge is power. Understand the cause behind your particular symptoms. With new personal insights and practical solutions you'll finally be able to take control of your well-being, step-by-step, at a pace that works for you. With guidance, and encouragement you will forge healthy habits for improved health.

What does a hormone health coach do?

I believe that with so many health issues caused by diet and lifestyle, food is often the best medicine. I teach my clients how to make small dietary changes that stack up to health gains over time.

I have a holistic approach with a focus on diet, nutrients, stress management, sleep, exercise and other habits that influence your hormonal health and overall wellbeing.

I offer a supportive, safe space for clients to discuss their intentions, fears, limitations and aspirations. With a deeper understanding of a client's needs I help guide and create motivation to overcome barriers and create sustainable healthy habits you can implement one step       at a time.

These solution focussed sessions help you understand the root cause and provide you with actionable strategies to regain control of your body, energy and confidence and embrace the next stage of your life.
