My journey into nutritional therapy and the wellness world began way back in my early tweens with a diagnosis of Polycystic Ovaries/ PCOS – and my GP telling me I’d struggle to conceive in the future without medical intervention and that I should stay on the pill in the meantime to regulate my debilitating symptoms.

This response just didn’t sit well with me, it wasn’t the answer I wanted to hear and masking the symptoms for the next 10-15 years certainly didn’t feel like a solution – I felt driven to understand what was causing my problems and more importantly how I could fix them. Determined to take control of my own health, I started researching alternative approaches.

I subsequently transformed my diet and lifestyle and within months noticed a significant improvement in my symptoms. Years later during an investigatory scan I was told I didn’t have enough ovarian cysts to warrant a Polycystic Ovaries diagnosis – I had reversed the disease naturally – and, when the time was right, I did go on and conceive naturally and am now a mum to two healthy boys.

This experience fuelled my passion for finding the root causes of health issues. I firmly believe in the power of nature, whole food nutrition, and holistic healing to support the body’s natural ability to restore itself. That belief led me to study at the Health Coach Institute (USA) and the College of Naturopathic Medicine, London, where I was awarded a L6 Diploma in Nutritional Therapy – enabling me to help others regain control of their own health.
