I am a clinical nutritionist, retreat caterer and mother of four. My work bridges clinical insight with deeply human care, because true healing requires both.
- Food as medicine, not as restriction.
- The body as messenger, not as enemy.
- Healing in seasons, not in straight lines.
- Coming home to yourself, on your own terms.
I have always been a healer at heart. No, really.
When I was a girl in Western Australia, I loved food the way other kids loved sport. Garlic in olive oil. Hands in dough. A long table that brought people in.
When I was in my early twenties, I was already convinced I would build something that fed people in every sense of the word.
And when I was in my early thirties, I did. The cafe was the first chapter.
Let me take you through the rest.
I opened a wholefoods cafe called Soul.
Retro walls. A coffee machine I learned to dance with at dawn. Ethically sourced produce. Intimate conversations across the counter with customers who became regulars, and then friends.
It was the most joyful work of my life.
And the most relentless. Four babies in four years. A cafe that needed me before sunrise. I was nourishing a whole community while my own body was going quiet.
The irony was not lost on me. I was the woman skipping lunch.
I was nourishing a whole community
while my own body went quiet.
I sold the cafe and flew to India for my Ashtanga teacher training.
Four weeks of twelve-hour days. Still breastfeeding my nine-month-old. I came home from India bending like the body I used to live in.
Then my shoulder gave out. Then my knee. Six months of slow repair, the first time in my life I had ever sat in a physiotherapist's chair.
This body has grown four humans. She is not the body I left. She needs to be met where she is.
That was the first lesson. I would not learn the rest of them for another three years.
I enrolled in a Bachelor of Health Science. Nutritional and Dietetic Medicine.
I had a Bachelor of Education already. I was a teacher long before I was a nutritionist.
But food kept calling me back. So I signed up for a second degree, part-time, while building a small business called Food Remedy. Catering for retreats. Cooking for festivals. Feeding women, families, communities, gatherings.
Food as medicine, applied at scale. I had no idea yet how much I needed it for myself.
End of 2022. I crashed.
I could not get out of bed most days. Three-hour naps just to make it through. Pins and needles in my hands and feet. A dull headache that did not lift. Pages I read three times and could not retain. Heart palpitations. Anxiety I could not place.
I withdrew from a university unit. I could not look at a screen for more than thirty minutes without falling asleep.
My doctor said the words. Chronic fatigue. Incurable. Only manageable.I sat in my car in my driveway after that appointment, and I made a decision.
I was not ready to live inside that sentence.Slow Days
2023 was the quietest year of my life. And the most important.
A year of nervous system work. Steady nourishment every few hours. Sleep that actually mattered. Gentle movement. The unspectacular practices I had been recommending to other women, finally given to myself.
There were no big moments. No transformations to post about. Just one slow, steady, daily return to a body I had stopped listening to.
The body is not broken. She is asking. I learned this one day at a time.
The most powerful work
is the unspectacular work,
done daily.

who arrive the way I arrived.

What I will not say to a woman in my clinic.
I do not believe in detox.
I do not believe in quick fixes.
I do not believe weight loss is a wellness goal.
I do not believe your body is working against you.
I believe she is intelligent, listening, and waiting for the conditions to come home to herself.
You are not too tired to begin.
You are not too far gone.
Your body has been waiting for you, this whole time.
Three doors.
Choose the one your body is asking for.
