The journey to resilient health, vitality and longevity
Emerging from a stressful & traumatic period in my own life, I was forced to take time out to recover from a decade of stress, trauma coupled with with overwhelm and anxiety, to restore my emotional and physical health that had suffered as a result.
Once fully recovered, having used the functional health perspective, I trained with the New York based Institute of Integrative Nutrition, adding holistic health coaching to my Life coach and Neuro linguistic programming (NLP) practitioner qualifications, having previously trained with the UK based Coaching Academy.
My passion for coaching combined with health and wellbeing led me to be studying currently with the School for Applied Functional Medicine (SAFM), where I have achieved Level 2 Certification, and am undertaking further study at the advanced Level 3 - looking forward to graduating as a fully certified functional medicine practitioner in September 2024.
As a result of having overcome my own health concerns by working on the root causes of my digestive issues, chronic fatigue & weight gain, my top priorities are focusing on health and wellbeing from a perspective of looking at the root cause of disease and treating the cause, rather than only the symptom.
We have seen over the past few years that we can no longer take our health for granted or expect to be fixed by pharmaceutical means alone. We have learned that the more health concerns we have, the more vulnerable we are.
Our pills ease our symptoms and act as a sticking plaster but they do not get to the root cause of why our bodies are screaming out to us, by giving us physical pain and discomfort with many more going un noticed until something else crops up.
This is where functional medicine can help, in partnership with you, we can get to the root cause of your suffering and work to alleviate your symptoms or conditions, for good
As a business owner myself, I am passionate about working with fellow business owners and CEO's - after all if we do not have our health in check, how can we expect our businesses to thrive & be healthy too!
I see this work as a partnership, identifying where you are now in terms of health and wellbeing, helping you to understand what your body is telling you from any symptoms that you have and to discuss ways to move forwards at your own pace, on your own terms.
I create a safe space for non-judgemental, confidential discussion and use my experience and knowledge in integrative health to gently coach you towards optimal wellbeing and vitality.
“In a world where we are facing global and unprecedented health crises, focusing on our overall wellbeing is crucial, not just for us but also for our businesses, our family, friends, our community and colleagues. Going on a diet or upping our exercise is no longer enough, it is time to look at overall lifestyle factors and add in the things that nourish us both internally and externally in order to thrive”
