Nutrition & lifestyle consultations for midlife women who want more out of life

You're reading this so I guess you've already had enough trying to figure this all out on your own. There's no better time to invest than NOW. My programmes are designed for women in their menopause years who know they could and should be feeling better. There doesn’t have to be anything massively wrong. You simply know your energy, your confidence, and your enthusiasm for life is not where you want it to be. And you might be dealing with a bunch of annoying symptoms, too, like foggy brain, a wobbly middle and sleepless nights. I can help.

DUTCH Test

The DUTCH test shows what your hormones are doing across the day. You’ll see how you make and clear oestrogen and whether your cortisol rhythm is helping or hindering you. It explains your midlife symptoms so you know where to focus for real change.

DNA Tests

DNA testing cuts the guesswork. You’ll see how your hormones behave, how you methylate, how you burn fuel, and how your nervous system handles stress. Clear insight that shows you where to focus so you can feel better, faster.

Stool Tests

Stool testing shows what’s really happening in your gut. You’ll see how well you digest food, how balanced your microbes are, and whether inflammation or hidden infections are slowing you down. It gives you clear answers so you can target the root of bloating, low energy and stubborn midlife symptoms.

Menopause sugar cravings: how to survive Halloween without the crash

Some years I’m all in on Halloween.Black outfit, cat ears, £100 worth of seasonal cushions, knitted pumpkins and outdoor deco shenanigans. Oh and the pumpkins. So many pumpkins. All carved and looking jaunty outside the house (until they rot or get eaten by slugs). Other years I cannot be arsed.Do not let anyone know we care. Lights off, curtains drawn, “nobody’s home” energy. Because what’s the point of buying bags of sweets only to: Run out in the first hour and apologis

Why ‘eat less, move more’ doesn’t work in menopause (and what to do instead)

‘Eat less, move more’ is the kind of throwaway advice that sounds sensible, but has caused more misery, hunger, and hormonal chaos than I care to count. Sure, calories matter a bit. But they’re far from the whole story. Especially in menopause, when your metabolism has its own ideas about how things should work. So if you’ve been eating less, moving more, and still watching the scales laugh in your face, pull up a chair. Let’s unpack what’s really going on in your midlife bo
