About Me

I grew up knowing how many calories were in everything — but nothing about how food actually made me feel. Like so many women, I internalised control, perfectionism, and punishment as the path to health.

​

Then came a diagnosis I wasn’t prepared for — a chronic condition I’d never heard of. No answers, just a leaflet, a prescription, and a sense that I was supposed to just “get on with it.”

I didn’t.

Instead, I got curious.

I spent years piecing together what no one told me:
How food, stress, sleep, shame, and identity shape our health in ways the leaflets don’t explain.

I’ve rebuilt my health not through restriction — but through realignment.

And now, I help other women do the same.

I’m a qualified Health Coach and Nutritionist, with a Masters in Public Health.

But more than that, I’m someone who knows what it feels like to hold it all together on the outside while your body is breaking down on the inside.

My work isn’t about diets, rules, or perfection.

It’s about helping you make sense of your health story — and write a new one.

Let’s have a real conversation.
You’re not here to be fixed.
You’re here to be supported, informed, and finally seen.
