women’s weight loss resistance
i empower women who’ve tried everything, to lose weight for good using individualised programs based on testing
Have you tried everything to lose weight and nothing has worked?
Are you tired of being told you simply need to eat less and exercise more?
are you fed up with yoyo diets and what they do to your body?
Losing weight and keeping it off can be so much more than that, Especially if you have WEIGHT LOSS RESISTANCE!
Whether you’re 40 years old, peri-menopausal or post-menopausal, it can be near impossible to shift weight using techniques that may have once worked for you.
This is often due to underlying health issues that first need to be resolved.
I specialise in supporting women who
Have tried everything and nothing works
Are tired of yoyo dieting and what it does to their health
Want to resolve the underlying hormonal, metabolic and gut health issues holding their weight loss back
Seek lasting results
Long to feel great again

By helping people become healthier, I hope to make the world not just a healthier place, but a calmer and happier one that’s more in tune with its environment.
my story
I’m someone who experienced difficult-to-diagnose symptoms. Among other challenges, I developed fibromyalgia-type arthritis in my late teens after living in Southeast Asia, am overcoming nerve pain in my hands and feet that resulted in muscle weakness and sleeplessness, and after moving into an 1880 house, contracted mould toxicity or CIRS. At one time I was also told I had depression, for years got migraines twice weekly, and at various times experienced gynaecological, thyroid and hormonal issues.
Is this you too?
I understand what it’s like to undure the pain and exhaustion from overlooked, misdiagnosed, undiagnosable or stigmatised conditions. Before I became a nutritional therapist and began studying functional medicine I spent a lot of time and thousands of dollars seeking answers, trying unhelpful drugs and having unnecessary medical procedures and surgeries. I also know how terrifying it is to feel emotionally not yourself.
At one point, I wondered if I was ever going to be able to work full time again because I felt so awful and drained.
Becoming a Yoga Teacher, Health Coach, Nutritional Therapist, Psych-K Practitioner, and now a Functional Medicine Practitioner (looking at the foundational way nutrients, lifestyle and the mind affect the body at a cellular and genetic level) with lab testing training have been instinctive steps in my journey. I believe I would be much sicker, if not bedridden, had I not done this and definitely unable to work, which was my life for a while. Now I see clients, help my family, exercise and much more!
This is how I turned this around, in part because I couldn’t just take a pill, which is not usually a long-term cure anyway. Resolving chronic health issues takes time and commitment, trial and error. I did this by seeking out the root causes of my symptoms, spending time researching and understanding chronic illness, including the impact of diet, toxins and lifestyle.
My pathway has involved overcoming gut permeability and infections, SIBO, food and environmental sensitivities, CIRS, fibromyalgia type pain, oxalate hypersensitivity, adrenal exhaustion, histamine sensitivity, hEDS and negative subconscious beliefs.
Lately I’ve been focusing more on understanding and resolving the impact that menopause is having on my body, including autoimmunity post CIRS (thanks mould) and weight gain. I’m seeing significant health improvements and my weight is down 9kg with more to go.
I know first hand the fear and frustration you might be feeling about the way ongoing illness and weight gain can change your life. I understand the process of grief when you have to change your diet and lifestyle, and conflict with your own body changes, and what it takes to switch your mindset to one of gaining health. I get how we can stop believing in our body and our self.
But IT IS possible to improve your health, get back to living and get your slim body back again! I’d love to hear from you.
