The food rules, guilt and “I’ll start Monday” cycle that turn eating into a full-time job.

THE PERSON BEHIND THE OPINIONS
Health advice.
With a human in it.
Keeping It Real
I’m a coach, a wife and a mum of two. I know “just prioritise yourself” can sound a bit different when everyone needs something before breakfast.
With 20 years in health and fitness, I bring practical coaching experience, an evidence-informed approach and a healthy scepticism of the next miracle fix. My work focuses on strength, everyday wellbeing and helping women move beyond the constant pressure to shrink.
I translate health and fitness topics into clear, relatable conversations, with warmth, humour and something readers can actually use.
