Why Did I Become a Nutritionist??

 Who is the face behind What’s Eating You?

As a Nutritionist and Wellbeing Coach for over 15 years, I practice what I preach and live a very healthy life, but I have faced many health challenges, and so I understand what it is like to be unwell.

I am living with Rheumatoid Arthritis, an autoimmune condition where the body’s defences attack its own joints, causing pain, deformity and fatigue.

But my journey into Nutrition began with IBS in my 20’s. 

All those years ago, one was told to eat more bran, which we now know is irritating and often inflammatory to the gut.

For me removing gluten, dairy and wheat was a game changer.

In my mid forty’s I was diagnosed with Endometrial Cancer (cancer of the womb lining). 

I had full surgery followed by radiotherapy, and am happy to say that despite an overnight menopause, I am cancer free.

After seeing how I could overcome my health problems with food and lifestyle, I knew that my mission was to help other people and show them how, with the right conditions, our bodies will restore themselves back to good health and vitality.

Underpinning my various conditions, was a great deal of stress, and I started looking into different ways to address the nervous system.

This was when I discovered Meditation, Sound Healing and Reiki.

I also noticed with my clients how stress is beneath many illnesses, so it was a natural progression to combine both Nutrition and Health Coaching, with Energetic Medicine using Meditation, Sound Healing and Reiki, giving a fully integrated and holistic approach to health.

Not everyone wants both parts, some people want to focus on nutrition and lifestyle, others just want to relax more…..  But when both are combined, then equilibrium is fully restored.
