As with so many practitioners, the reason I found my way into this work, is because of my ongoing battle with my own health. 

From a very young age, I struggled with my relationship with food which led on into a 10 year struggle with binge & emotional eating. I tried every fad diet you could imagine thinking if I could just find the right one, it would solve all my problems.  

This inevitably affected every area of my health, both physical & emotional. From body image issues to digestion issues to heavy, painful & sometimes completely missing periods. 

After a trip to the doctors to get some support, I left with with an IBS diagnosis, the contraceptive pill to ‘regulate my cycle’ & another diet to try to ‘get control’ around food. Safe to say I felt completely unseen & unheard. I became worst enemies with my body & I thought it was broken. 

I can imagine that you probably have or maybe you are feeling the same. I hear this story time & time again. 

Eventually, I decided that enough was enough & went on a journey to find what 'healthy' means to me. This didn't just mean adjusting what was on my plate, but getting to the root cause of my health problems & addressing my relationship with food. 

So much went into my healing & it was hard work. I delved into all things emotional healing, long term habit change, mindset work & nutrition. I realised that the puzzle wasn't complete without even one of these pieces & that true health wasn't just about on plate nourishment, but so many other things too. 

I never thought I’d get to the place where I am no longer binge eating multiple times a week, keeling over in pain every time I start my period or suffering with chronic bloating & constipation. But here I am, & I have OBSESSED with empowering other women do exactly the same.
