My Story

Growing up, I was a healthy child with no major health concerns. That changed at age 13 when I was prescribed a strong dose of antibiotics to prevent an infection after a knee injury on a school trip. The medication caused severe stomach upsets, and my skin health declined significantly. Throughout my teenage years, I battled with acne and became extremely self-conscious about my skin. I wish I had known then what I know now about the gut-skin axis and the importance of supporting gut health to prevent dysbiosis. 

Nobody taught me the connection between diet, lifestyle, and health—it wasn’t spoken about much at all back then.

So, like many in their early twenties, I enjoyed a typical amount of alcohol, coffee, and junk food. I was having a lot of fun, working hard, and playing hard, often burning the candle at both ends.

At 27, I had my first child. Navigating the stress of early motherhood and demanding work commitments, I found myself neglecting my well-being. I spent a couple of years chronically stressed—albeit unknowingly—until my body finally said ‘no.’ I fell incredibly ill and was bedridden for several days with what was most likely strep throat. When I finally recovered, small scaly red patches appeared on my skin. My GP diagnosed me with an autoimmune condition—guttate psoriasis—and assured me it would ‘go away as quickly as it had come on,’ but it didn’t. Months later, I was still covered in these patches.

When doctors couldn’t solve my issues, I started to look for other answers. I began reassessing my priorities and embarked on a journey of healing and self-discovery, exploring acupuncture, herbal medicine, lifestyle changes, and reconnecting with intuition and nature.

A chance encounter with a nutritional therapy course ad was a ‘lightbulb’ moment for me.

I realised I could combine my deep-seated love for food with its healing properties.

Despite juggling motherhood and part-time work, I pursued my studies, driven by a desire to empower others to take control of their health, particularly those with skin conditions that affected their confidence.

Another ‘a-ha’ moment came when I realised that education about food and lifestyle wouldn’t suffice unless people could dig deep to clarify their underlying issues. Negative thoughts can be as damaging as a poor diet, blocking us from taking control of our health. During my training at CNELM, I learned various coaching tools, including NLP, which have significantly improved the results for my clients.

My personal journey has fueled my passion for helping others achieve radiant health from the inside out.

Armed with newfound knowledge, coaching skills, and personal experience, I now help others overcome their underlying health and emotional issues to embrace a more nourished life. If you are suffering from health issues that make you feel frustrated, unsightly, and hopeless, I want to say: "You don't have to endure this."
