about

My relationship with my hormones was always the same as most girls - I hated my period & how it made me feel. I thought it was so unfair that only women had to deal with them. I couldn't wait till I was allowed to get on the pill to "fix" them.

Since I started my period aged 16, I struggled with the very heavy, extremely painful bleeding and the fact that my cycle seemed to have no pattern whatsoever. I could have no period for 6 months and then bleed for 3 weeks straight. This struggle went on for around 3 years until I decided I'd had enough and I was starting some kind of birth control to deal with it.

I'd never really been a fan of the idea of the pill and so I opted for the implant. It seemed like the perfect solution - no periods, no need to remember to take it, no side effects. Or so I thought.

I kept the implant for 7 years and it wasn't until I had it removed, that I realised I'd traded my chaotic periods for a permanent low mood & fogginess. Having it removed meant that the dark cloud I hadn't even been aware of lifted and for the first time in years, I felt light, positive and like 'me'.

My high was short lived however as I was advised to start taking the combined pill as an alternative and within 3 months, my mental health was at rock bottom. I was dealing with relentless crippling anxiety, depression, unable to sleep, losing weight I couldn't afford and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

By month 4, I couldn't persevere any longer and I quit right then and there. I'd expected my symptoms to start to shift pretty quickly and to feel myself getting back to normal. Instead, things only got worse. I realise now the combination of already imbalanced hormones, all those years of the implant, switching to the pill and then quitting cold turkey had left my body in hormonal chaos!

I spoke with multiple doctors and women's health specialists and was repeatedly told it was all in my head. I knew I had to find a solution for myself.

So I spent months reading, watching, learning, trialling every single bit of information I could find, desperate to get back to the old me. It was during this time that I realised just how overwhelming and complicated hormone health could be and in my already desperate state, I just wanted some simple answers I could understand and apply.

Bit by bit my trial and error process started to pay off as I learned what worked and what didn't and after around 10 months, I felt like I was back on stable ground - not 100% but I knew by then what to focus on to keep the momentum going.

That was when I decided that I wanted to use my experience and what I'd learned to help other women who also needed answers. I realised I'd found my purpose, to break down all of the confusing and complex information and teach people exactly what they needed to know (and do).

So I completed an accreditation in women's hormone health, set up my business and packaged up the strategy I'd unintentionally created through my own healing.

Now, 3 years later, my hormones are thriving. My periods come like clockwork, they are always pain free, light bleeding and I know exactly what to expect from my moods, energy and productivity every single day of the month.

On top of this, I run a successful business, I have more love and connection with myself than ever. I recently got engaged, got a puppy, said yes to opportunities I never would have before and I'm planning to move into my dream home next year!

I don't spend a fortune on niche supplements and health foods. I do my weekly shop in Lidl. I hate cooking so I don't handcraft all my meals from 40+ organic ingredients. I don't have a 3 hour morning routine and go to the gym 5x per week.

I work full time. I have a partner and a dog. I look after my house. I visit friends and family. I travel. I eat out. I watch Netflix most days. Yet, I still prioritise my hormones and support my body.

It really can be simple. I believe that simple = sustainable and that's what I want for the women in my world. Long lasting, life changing results.
