As I’m in the last few weeks of my 40’s I absolutely love this message ❤️

I feel like this is something a lot of women need to hear today… Getting older is a privilege and not everybody gets to do it. The internet can make ageing feel like something us women need to hide but in reality getting older is where a lot of us actually get to know ourselves the best! Getting o...

This is shaping up to be a really great conference if you fancy a weekend in London with a difference!

1 in 4 UK adults now meet the criteria for metabolic syndrome.

Poor metabolic health increases the risk of chronic disease, from heart disease and stroke to type 2 diabetes and fatty liver.

And it doesn’t just affect you.

It can shape the long-term health of your children, your partner, and the people you care for.

That’s why the PHC Conference 2026: Nourish to Flourish matters.

This event will change how you think about metabolic health forever.

We’re bringing together leading experts in nutrition, medicine, and education to show you:

• what’s really driving this epidemic
• why so many people struggle despite “doing everything right”
• and the practical, evidence-based steps you can start using immediately

Because the longer you wait, the harder it becomes to reverse.

And the sooner you understand it, the sooner you can protect the people you love.

If prevention matters to you, grab the Early Bird now and join 200+ already coming.

Many of my clients struggle with sleep.

I’m often surprised how long people will put up with not sleeping well.

It’s absolutely normal to have the odd night of disrupted sleep. But if you regularly get less than you need, or you don’t wake feeling rested please try to get to the bottom of why.

For some people caffeine and alcohol are part of the picture. This 5-minute video explains why.

It really hammers home why I didn’t sleep until 5am after an expresso martini at a 50th party recently…

Caffeine wakes you up, and alcohol makes you nod off, right? It's not that simple. Sleep scientist Matthew Walker, PhD takes us into the eye-opening ways that these drinks affect the quantity and quality of our sleep.

Don’t panic, I haven’t been in an accident!

Yesterday I tried the Body Ballancer lymphatic drainage massage suit with the lovely Alex in Clevedon.

Our lymphatic system is an overlooked part of our health, quietly removing toxins, helping us absorb nutrients and deliver them to our cells for energy.

It’s much like our cardiovascular system, but without a pump. So massage like this helps remove excess fluid that sits in the spaces between our cells and keeps our lymph moving.

I’m a natural cynic. But I have to say I’m impressed. Why?

🌟My legs felt noticeably lighter
🌟This morning they feel less puffy
🌟It was super relaxing and I slept really well

Obviously you need to do this more than once to receive ongoing health benefits but I can honestly say I am IN!

As we age lymph can move less well, particularly with sedentary lifestyles and hormonal changes.

If you are local to me please get in touch with Alex.

It's buy-one-get-one free with me 😉

Sometimes we don't just solve one symptom mystery but many a long-standing issue you've put up with for years. Why?

🕸 Think of your body like a spiders web... everything is inter-connected
🕸 You may not realise it but what is going on in one part of your body is resulting in symptoms you experience elsewhere
🕸 But sometimes you have to dig deep to understand why .... working with me 1:1 gives you exactly this
🕸 I take a full health history, 7-day food diary and I LISTEN
🕸 From our first conversation I'm creating YOUR spiders web in my mind
🕸 Then through our weekly sessions we unravel your unwanted spider trails for good

Too Halloween? No spookiness here, just biology.

I've got only two remaining spots for clients to start in November. Don't wait until the New Year to make a start on feeling better. Life is too short.

This annual conference in London is always brilliant (hoping I don’t spoil that 🫣🤭). Early bird tickets close soon.

Sick care is failing.
So are our diets, our kids’ health, and our ability to thrive.

This isn’t just a lifestyle problem; it’s a knowledge problem too.

At PHC Conference 2026: Nourish to Flourish, we’re bringing together leaders in nutrition, medicine, and education to help you understand what really impacts your health and how to take action.

From teenage nutrition and childhood development to women’s health, men’s hormones, and the dangers of ultra-processed food, you’ll leave with the clarity, tools, and confidence to build real, lasting change.

🎟️ Super early bird ticket sale ends in 5 days.
