Reclaim your energy, mood and metabolism

Welcome. I'm Kate Schmidt, a certified Nutrition & Lifestyle Coach with a focus on hormone health. I help women, especially during the pre, peri, and post-menopausal phases rebalance their bodies, restore energy, and feel good again.

Using a holistic and realistic approach, I support you in making simple, sustainable changes that have a big impact over time. Together, we'll look at your diet, stress levels, sleep quality, movement and mindset, and make adjustments that align with your current stage of life.

This is your time to feel strong, clear, and confident again.

"Your body has an amazing
capacity
to heal"

Does this sound like you?

  • Brain fog or forgetfulness

  • Weight gain/especially around middle

  • Mood swings, rage or anxiety

  • Low energy and motivation

  • Hot flushes or sleepless nights

  • Aching joints and stubborn weight gain

  • Skin or hair changes

  • Low libido or vaginal dryness

  • Digestive discomfort

  • Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unlike yourself

If you're experiencing some of these symptoms, your hormones could be out of balance and that can change everything, from how you digest food to how you respond to stress and movement.


A Holistic Approach to Hormone Health

Hormonal changes impact your metabolism, stress response, sleep, and cravings. What worked for your body before may no longer serve you. I help you:

  • Understand your symptoms and what's causing them

  • Restore balance with nutrition, lifestyle and mindset shifts

  • Build habits that stick—without diets, deprivation or calorie counting

    With a focus on:

  • Balancing blood sugar
  • Supporting gut health
  • Managing stress

We will work with your body, not against it to make you feel more energised and in control of your health again.

What I Offer

You'll receive compassionate, solution-focused coaching tailored to your goals, your body, and your life.               Together, we'll create a practical, sustainable plan designed to:

  • Support hormone health through food, movement and sleep

  • Lower cortisol and insulin to reduce cravings and stabilise mood

  • Improve energy and gut health through gentle detox support

  • Navigate GLP-1 medications, if applicable

  • Help you reach and maintain a healthy weight (if desired)

  • Reduce overwhelm and improve your relationship with yourself

  • Learn the "why" behind your symptoms to stay empowered for the long term

You'll also get:

  • Personalised nutrition and supplement guidance

  • Recipes, shopping lists, food swaps, and larder makeovers

  • Exercise and movement tips

  • Stress and self-care strategies

  • Ongoing education and encouragement


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.

My approach

I offer a safe, non-judgemental space for you to explore your health story, ask questions, and move forward with clarity and confidence. You don't have to navigate this alone, and you don't have to settle for feeling less than your best.

I take a whole body view. Hormones don't work in isolation and neither do we. We'll explore how your nutrition, sleep, stress, movement and daily habits are affecting your hormonal health and how to gently shift them to feel more energised, more balanced and more you.

Let's uncover what's holding you back, and create a new path forward, step by step, together.
