Coaching changed the direction of my life.

You will often catch me saying that what I gained from this process—clarity, powerful mindset shifts, resilience and the courage to change—is the most precious thing I have, and no one can ever take that away from me. It is one of the best investments I’ve made. I will be forever grateful to the friend who pointed me in that direction and to my first coach, who created the space for me to take courage and step out of beliefs that no longer served me. 

As a child, I was mesmerised by the anthills in our garden. I’d sit and watch the ants march into this big, round pile. One day my curiosity got the best of me, so I took a stick and tore one down. I knew there was way more happening beneath the surface and I had to see it for myself. The next day I would find it back up again, relieved as if my brutality had been forgiven.

I’ve always wanted to understand what lies beneath the surface. Not out of rebellion, but curiosity. That instinct has followed me through everything I’ve done, including my own health journey.

I didn’t set out to become a health coach, in fact, I arrived here unexpectedly. When my young dog fell ill, he was losing weight fast despite every intervention, and we had no answers to why. At the same time, my own health was deteriorating. I was struggling with anxiety, carrying excess weight and quietly terrified that this was simply my life now.

I started reading everything I could about canine biology, nutrition, behaviour. One day, I fixated on one word: stress. I began to wonder if the dog, an anxious breed by nature, wasn’t recovering because he was constantly on edge, living in a high-stress environment shaped by the pace of a busy city. To test my hunch, I sent him to stay with someone in the countryside. Within weeks, he started to recover and, eventually, he made a full recovery. Was it the change of environment, the reduced stress or time itself? I’ll never know exactly, but it made me start asking questions.

That experience shifted something in me. I had thrown myself into learning for his sake and, in the process, started seeing my own patterns more clearly. All the ways I’d been pushing, punishing, controlling. I turned the lens inward and began to change.

For most of my life my health efforts were about shrinking—my body, my appetite, my presence. I was always trying to fix myself, never to understand myself. I had done every diet, lost the weight, gained even more back. Failed, then started again. The only thing that seemed to stay consistent was the self-hatred and that one was perhaps the most painful experience.

Once I stopped asking “what’s wrong with me?!” and started asking “what’s going on here?”, everything changed.

When I finally widened my focus beyond just how I look, I connected with how I feel and how I think. Grounding myself in science, I stopped chasing quick-fixes. Coaching helped me start acting in alignment with who I wanted to become. I built systems that helped me keep going even when I didn’t feel like it and focused on what I could sustain as a lifestyle.

That process became my life’s work. It gave my life direction.

Now, I help others navigate the messy, deeply personal process of reclaiming their health, on their own terms.

Explore my coaching plans—expertly structured, personalised and designed to guide your journey to lasting change.

I do this work because I know how lonely it feels when you’re stuck in your own head, constantly starting over, unsure what’s holding you back.

Too many people are taught to push through or give up. I believe there’s a third way: learning to work with your body, not against it. When you stop chasing extremes and start paying attention to what actually works, lasting change becomes possible.

This kind of change matters. When people rebuild trust in their bodies and choices, they stop outsourcing decisions to trends, guilt or willpower. They start leading themselves with clarity, resilience and agency—qualities that affect far more than just physical wellbeing.

My work is personal and it’s practical. I stay grounded in science, constantly learning about behaviour change, habit formation and sustainable health.

Just as those ants with their anthills, we rebuild. That’s the kind of work I do with people and it’s an honour to be trusted in this way.

Tell me where you are in your journey and I promise to meet you there.
