The Nourishing Well
“I felt at home with BEST Business Networking from the moment I walked into my first meeting. It is a welcoming and truly eclectic mix of business professionals, who are all willing to share their experiences to help others. My aim with BEST is to learn and to help others through connection and support.
My passion is to help busy, working people who want to adopt a healthier lifestyle to relieve bothersome symptoms or address chronic illness but who have little time to consider their diet and lifestyle, and perhaps have little choice with what is available to them during the working day.
What we eat and how we eat has a massive impact on every cell in our body and I support people to introduce healthier, sustainable ways of eating to improve health for now and also for the future.
Through reviewing someone’s unique health history and their current situation, I can tailor a programme specifically for that individual, addressing their key health goals. Working through health coaching and providing bespoke strategies and tools, we work together through a journey to nourish and flourish. We work together at a pace that suits you, and your current situation. To make lasting change, we need to take things one small step at a time.
My entire career has been focused on improving health and I have an empathetic approach to the therapeutic relationship. Having trained initially as a nurse, and having worked for 25 years in healthcare communications, working with scientific data to provide communications and education for patients, doctors, nurses and allied health professionals, I bring a truly scientific approach to my work.
I have been in your shoes, suffering chronic illness and acute periods of seriously ill health. Through nurturing self-care and adopting a diet that is right for me, I have turned around my illness, removed symptoms and rarely take medications. I am training for my 9th and 10th marathons this year.
Importantly for you, I am registered with the Complementary and Natural Health Care Council (CNHC) and a member of the British Association of Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine (BANT) which ensure standards of care are met and peace of mind that my training and qualifications are robust.
