Hey gorgeous! I know you’re a smart, savvy high achiever… 

But  your chaotic relationship with food is holding you back. 

The thing is, being out of control around food impacts so much more than just eating. It impacts your relationships, work and your body image. It stops you from fully showing up in your life. 

If you’re honest, you feel like a pendulum swinging from restricting and trying to be healthy at one end, to bingeing everything in sight at the other.

Plus you’ve got an endless list of “naughty” food that gets more tempting by the day and the blow-outs get more frenzied. Cue guilt, shame and self-loathing - again. You feel like you’re at breaking point - something has to change.

I can totally empathise…

What would I know about your own food struggles?

I’ve spent most of my adult life with a very negative relationship with food.

Intense diets. Rigid healthy eating plans. Extreme restrictions. Bingeing. Emotional Eating. Purging. Bulimia. Orthorexia. Avoiding social events because I was scared of food. Gorging at the buffet table. Detoxing. Being sugar-free, gluten-free, dairy-free. Falling off the wagon countless times.

Food used to be my enemy - there were daily battles with food, calories, the bathroom scales, and an intense self-loathing when I looked in the mirror.

After 20 years, I was exhausted. For too long I’d felt wild and out of control.

So I started to research. I discovered the science and psychology behind the negative spiral of food struggles and out-of-control binges, and learnt the truth about toxic diet culture.

Finally, I learnt how to tune into my body and eat in a way that’s healthy, but not restrictive, nutritious and satisfying. 

And then I did the training - health and nutrition coaching, intuitive eating, and becoming an eating disorder recovery coach.

Today, I run 1:1 and group coaching programs and have created online courses to support you in healing your relationship with food. I’ve now had the honour of helping many women like you go from chaos to calm around food.

As your coach, I can help you finally find peace, to feel in charge around food and confident in your body.
