Hi 👋🏽, I’m Sara, mom of three boys, formerly working as a medical doctor, Irelands first fully qualified functional medicine doctor with IFM, neglected veg patch owner and sun and ocean lover 🌞.
I’m sharing some things about me below so you can get to know me a little more.
🌿I spent my twenties and some of my 30s studying, working and travelling 🧳 to some of the worlds most amazing surfing locations including Madagascar, Mozambique, Java, Maldives, Sri Lanka, California, Brazil and more.
🌿these days I still get in for a surf whenever I can but more often it is a solo sea 🌊 dip, often with kids playing on the beach while I go.
🌿our daughter Zoey was born in 2018 and died a few days after birth which has had a transformative impact on how I view the world, meaning-making and what health and motherhood is for me 🌸
🌿I’m happiest and healthiest when barefoot, in the sun, on a remote beach with local fresh food and great company
🌿but mostly hanging around our cool town of ballinspittle 😀with a new baby and kiddos in tow, a messy car, wet togs in the boot and a bag full of snacks 🥰
🌿I did an internship with a rural GP in a small town in west cork as a student and wanted that to be my life…and since then found functional medicine and a different way of viewing healing and sharing my understanding of the human body.
🌿most of what I share is based on my own experiences in searching for true wellbeing alongside my professional experience of working in hospitals in a number of countries and my post graduate training.
🌿I believe that our bodies are amazing, always healing and working in our favour and that healing comes when we can remember to love and listen to them again
🌿I’m guided by theories on epigenetics, ancestral wisdom, quantum biology, metabolic health, and more and am lucky to have had some fantastic teachers. I have always been a big reader and LOVE learning and asking why and don’t intend to stop.
🌿sharing on IG doesn’t come super naturally for me but the process of showing up here definitely has pushed me in a good way 💕
🌿my online programme Regenerate Your Health is really important to me and I welcome you to join us 🙏🏽
