Growing up, I was never satisfied with my body.

In my early twenties, I was advised to lose a few pounds to help with a medical issue. I followed that advice and it quietly pulled me into something much more serious.

Before I knew it, I was obsessively tracking every bite, overexercising, and controlling everything I ate. Holidays became diet plans. Meals out filled me with stress. I brought food to people’s homes so I could stick to “the rules.” I thought I was being healthy, but really, I was scared. And stuck.

Eventually, I became lean and slim. But instead of feeling better, I felt exhausted, anxious, and painfully unfulfilled. I was undernourished, emotionally fragile, and depressed, and the health issue I started dieting for? Still there.

That was my wake-up call.

I realised that shrinking my body wasn’t the path to healing, and that health meant far more than numbers or rigid food rules. It took time, support and a lot of self-compassion to find my way back. I began to reconnect with my body and relearn how to trust it.

One of the most unexpected supports on that journey was cacao. Sitting with cacao became a small daily ritual, a way to slow down, tune into how I felt, and hear my own voice underneath the noise. It helped me feel safer in my body and more connected to my intuition. I still turn to it when I need grounding.

Today, I help other women who are done with dieting and restriction find their way back to themselves. My work is rooted in four pillars: nutrition, movement, sleep, and emotional resilience, because you can’t out-supplement emotional disconnection or sleep deprivation.

With an MSc in Nutrition and deep training in functional medicine and intuitive eating, I offer grounded, evidence-informed support that’s infused with compassion, spiritual depth, and lived experience. This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being whole.
