When it comes to women’s health, the vaginal microbiome often doesn’t get the attention it deserves. Yet, it quietly supports us every day. This delicate ecosystem, dominated by Lactobacillus, helps protect against infections and maintain balance. But it can be disrupted by so many factors: hormonal changes, diet, stress, contraceptives, partners and even daily care habits.

Gentle, consistent choices can make a world of difference. From breathable fabrics and mindful menstrual products, to nutrient-rich foods, stress support, probiotics and probiotic or lactic acid pessaries. These little acts of care build resilience over time. And just as important is knowing when to seek support if something doesn’t feel right.

Your vaginal health is part of your whole wellbeing. If you’ve been experiencing discomfort or just want to feel more confident in your down-there care, I’d love to help guide you. You don’t have to figure it out alone.

Feeling tired all the time isn’t always just a busy schedule, it can sometimes point to low iron. Without enough iron, your body can’t make the haemoglobin that carries oxygen, leaving you fatigued, pale, emotional and even breathless.

Iron levels can drop for many reasons. Heavy periods, pregnancy, gut health issues, or diet. Animal protein provides easily absorbed iron, while plant foods like greens, lentils, and seeds will help, especially with a boost of Vitamin C.

If you’ve been feeling constantly drained, it may be worth looking deeper and having your iron levels checked. With the right food and supplement support, energy and vitality can return. I’m here if you’d like guidance.

Resilience isn’t something we’re simply born with, it’s something we can strengthen, just like a muscle. The way we eat, rest, and care for ourselves shapes how we respond when life throws us challenges.

A nourishing, anti-inflammatory diet gives the brain and body what they need to recover and adapt. Looking after gut health with probiotic and prebiotic-rich foods supports mood and mental clarity. Quality sleep helps us process emotions and restore balance. And beyond the physical, taking time to check in with stress, practice mindfulness, making time for rest and joy and leaning on a strong support network makes all the difference.

Resilience also comes from being prepared. Whether that’s having a wellness toolkit, or putting strategies in place for emotional care. It’s about giving yourself the best chance to recover and move forward, no matter what comes your way.

If you’d like support in strengthening your resilience through nutrition and holistic care, I’d love to walk alongside you as you build it. ✨

So much of how we feel (from our digestion to our energy, even our mood) begins in the gut. One in five people experience digestive discomfort, and it’s often linked to an imbalance in the gut microbiota, the community of 'good' and 'bad' bacteria that affects everything from our immune system to mental health.

Processed foods, stress, poor sleep, inactivity, environmental toxins, medications and antibiotics can throw this balance off, leading to issues such as bloating, fatigue, skin breakouts, or irritable bowel symptoms. The good news is, small changes can make a real difference. Fresh, whole foods, fermented products, fibre, staying hydrated, moving your body, and managing stress all help restore balance.

If your gut has been sending you signals that something’s off, you don’t need to push through it alone. Reach out if you’d like support in understanding your symptoms and creating a plan that works for you. Your gut (and your whole body) will thank you. 💛

Your liver does so much for you. It quietly takes care of well over 400 jobs every single day, working tirelessly around the clock. Some examples are filtering your blood, sunthesising hormones and other important molecules, breaking down toxins, alcohol, and even stress hormones. But when it’s under pressure, you might feel it through fatigue, bloating, skin flare-ups, headaches, constipation or mood changes.

The kindest thing you can do is give it a little support: drink plenty of pure water, move your body, choose nourishing whole foods, and keep chemicals and alcohol to a minimum. You can even add in some liver supportive herbs and nutrients for an extra edge. Even small shifts can make a big difference in how you feel.

And if something doesn’t feel right, it’s always worth reaching out for support. Your liver will thank you for it. 💛

Have you ever noticed how your body naturally craves lighter, cooling foods in summer and heartier, warming meals in winter? That’s no coincidence. It’s your body’s way of aligning with nature’s cycles. Seasonal eating isn’t just about fresher and more flavourful produce, it’s also more nourishing, better for the environment, and supports our local farmers.

By tuning into what each season offers, you give your body what it truly needs. From hydrating watermelon and crisp salads in summer, to slow-cooked soups and spiced cacao in winter. Even traditional Ayurvedic wisdom encourages this way of eating, reminding us that balance comes from listening to both the body and the earth.

If you’ve been curious about how to reconnect with food in a way that feels more natural, I’d love to guide you. Reach out and let’s explore how seasonal eating can support your health and rhythm year-round. 🌸

Happy Hormones, Healthy You ✨

Hormones are the body’s messengers, shaping everything from sleep and mood to energy, skin, digestion, and fertility. When they’re balanced, life often feels smoother. But when they’re out of sync? The ripple effects can look like fatigue, anxiety, skin breakouts, irregular periods, or sleep struggles.

Stress is a big piece of the puzzle. Too much cortisol (our long-term stress hormone) can throw the whole system off balance. And lifestyle choices like what we eat, how we move, and how well we rest play a powerful role in bringing things back into harmony.

Supporting your hormones doesn’t mean doing everything at once, it means simple shifts: eating nutrient-rich foods, moving your body gently, prioritizing sleep, and finding ways to truly decompress. Over time, those small steps create lasting change.

If you’ve been wondering whether your symptoms might be linked to your hormones, I’m here to help you explore that connection with compassion and clarity.

Fertility support starts long before conception. 🌱

If you're thinking about starting a family, there’s so much you can do now to support your future baby’s health... and your own.

From the foods you eat to the products in your bathroom cupboard, even the quality of your sleep or air in your home, every choice is a chance to nurture your fertility.
Preconception care isn’t about being perfect. It’s about small, steady changes that support your body’s natural rhythms. Whether it’s reducing your exposure to everyday chemicals, boosting your nutrient intake, or simply slowing down and letting your nervous system breathe… every step matters.

I'm here to help you find your footing in this season, wherever you’re starting from.

✨ Curious about what preconception care could look like for you? Let's talk.

When your hormones are in harmony, life flows a little easier. But when they’re not, even the smallest things can feel heavy: sleepless nights, anxious thoughts, stubborn acne, intense cravings, painful cramps, or just feeling “off” without knowing why.

Balancing hormones isn’t about perfection, it’s about support. From nourishing meals and gentle movement to magnesium, herbal medicine, and deep rest and relaxation, there are so many ways to work with your cycle rather than against it.

If you feel like your hormones are running the show lately, I’m here to help you rebalance, tune back in and find your rhythm again.

True energy doesn’t come from another coffee or a sugar hit. It comes from balanced blood sugar, nourished cells, and a nervous system that isn’t always in overdrive.

When things like poor sleep, stress, infections, nutrient gaps or insulin resistance pile up, your body’s natural energy production (hello mitochondria!) can start to slow down, leaving you flat, foggy, or just not quite yourself.

But the good news is... fatigue is a sign to pause and listen. With the right investigations, food, movement, supplements and support, your body knows how to bounce back.

If your energy’s been running on empty for a while now, I’m here to help you refill your cup. In a way that’s sustainable, gentle, and aligned with your body’s needs.

You might’ve come across the word "Dysbiosis". It’s often used when we’re talking about imbalances in the gut microbiome. Technically, it refers to a disruption in the normal balance of bacteria, yeasts, and other microbes that live in the digestive tract. This imbalance can happen in a few ways: too many potentially harmful microbes, not enough beneficial ones, or reduced diversity (number) overall.

I often work with people experiencing symptoms linked to dysbiosis. Things like bloating, gastrointestinal pain, brain fog, fatigue, anxiety, skin issues, and irregular bowel habits. These symptoms can be frustrating and debilitating, especially when the root cause isn’t obvious. But factors such as diet, medications (especially antibiotics), stress, infections, and even birth and childhood history can all influence the microbiome.

The good news is, our gut is constantly adapting. With the right support, it’s possible to restore balance. Using testing where needed, targeted nutrients or herbs, and evidence-informed lifestyle and dietary changes, we can create a clearer picture and a plan that actually works.

If this sounds like something you’ve been navigating, I’d be happy to help you explore what’s going on beneath the surface.
