About Me

My Journey Into This Work Wasn't a Career Decision. It Was a Personal Necessity.

I became a health coach because I know what it feels like to search for answers, do everything right, and still feel like your body is asking for something deeper.


My Story

I lived this before I studied it.

With a degree in Chemistry, Botany and Zoology, I had spent years studying living systems — their chemistry, their patterns, their interconnections. But knowledge on paper alone did not prepare me for what it feels like to live in a body that no longer feels like itself.

For years I quietly carried what so many women carry: PCOS, exhaustion, burnout, unpredictable weight gain, sleepless nights, gut issues, inflammation, skin flare-ups and significant hair loss. I was eating well. I was doing the things I thought I was supposed to do.

"Why am I doing everything right, and still not feeling well?"

That question never left me. And it is still the question that sits at the heart of everything I do.


My Mother's Story

My mother's loss was the beginning.

She never doubted her doctors. And she was right not to. She had access to the best — gynaecologists, diabetologists, oncologists, dietitians, nutritionists. She never missed an appointment. She never stopped trying.

For years, she returned. More blood tests. More diagnoses. Medications that changed in name and dosage, but not in outcome. Every appointment sent her home with more questions than answers.

She did everything right. Still, nothing shifted.

What she received

A diagnosis. A prescription. A leaflet. A closed door. Fifteen minutes, then back to living with it every day.

What she also needed

Someone in the process with her. Someone to translate her diagnosis into the daily reality of her plate, her sleep, her body.

The people who loved her did everything they could. But without the right information, even love has limits.

This is my mother's story. And it is why I do this work — not to replace medicine, but to help bridge the gap between a diagnosis and daily life.


The Pattern I Could Not Unsee

Families inherit more than genes.

My mother had PCOS. So did I. So did my sisters. The same patterns appeared across the women in my family — weight struggles, hormonal imbalances, blood sugar dysregulation, exhaustion, digestive issues.

At first I assumed this was simply genetics. But the more I learned, the more I understood that families often inherit far more than genes.

We inherit habits. We inherit beliefs about food — not just recipes, but what we think we deserve, what we allow ourselves, what we reach for under pressure. We inherit stress responses, sleep patterns, ways of coping, ways of pushing through. We inherit environments.

And without realising it, we can repeat the same lifestyle patterns that contributed to illness in the generations before us.

"While we cannot change our genes, we can change the environment those genes live in. The future does not have to look like the past."

Health as a Mosaic

Food matters deeply. But it is only one tile.

This is what sent me back into training, switching my field, changing the course of my career. One course led to the other, and the more I learned, the clearer it became that health is not a single puzzle piece. It is a mosaic.

The others — sleep, stress, movement, nervous system, mineral balance, emotional landscape, and the way you care for yourself when no one is watching — those tiles matter just as much.

Meaningful change begins with seeing the whole picture, not just focusing on the most visible symptom.

Each layer of training has been a tile in its own mosaic, building not just clinical knowledge, but the ability to see the whole person sitting across from me.


How I Work Today

Support that helps you make sense of your body.

I work primarily with midlife women who are navigating fatigue, hormone changes, digestive symptoms, weight struggles and the feeling that their body no longer responds the way it once did.

Today, I bring together functional nutrition, personalised health coaching and, where appropriate, functional testing to assess patterns, interpret findings in context and develop personalised nutrition and lifestyle protocols.

My role is not to diagnose or prescribe. My practitioner work helps build a clearer picture of what may be influencing how you feel, while health coaching helps turn those insights into sustainable changes that fit your life.

Together, we look beyond isolated symptoms and explore the connections between nutrition, hormones, digestion, stress and lifestyle, so you can move forward with greater clarity and confidence.


You are not broken.

You don't have to keep guessing.

Your story deserves to be understood as a whole.

If something has changed and you haven't been able to make sense of why, your symptoms deserve context — not to be viewed as isolated pieces.

If any of this feels familiar, I would love to support you in understanding your individual picture and finding a way forward that fits your body and your life.
