Q. What if I am doing all the rights things but can't lose weight?

A. You may not be doing anything wrong.

Especially during perimenopause and menopause, changes in hormones, blood sugar regulation, sleep and stress can all influence your metabolism and make weight loss more challenging.

Instead of simply eating less or exercising more, it can be incredibly helpful to understand what is actually happening in your body.

That’s where my new Metabolic Reset Group Coaching Program comes in.

Using a 2-week Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM), you’ll be able to see how your own body responds to different foods, exercise, stress and sleep.

You may discover that the breakfast you thought was healthy is leaving you hungry two hours later. Or that a simple change to your meals or movement makes a noticeable difference to your energy and glucose levels.

The goal isn’t another diet. It’s learning what works for YOUR body.

I’m looking for 5 people to join my very first group. Email me to find out more : [email protected]

This is a great soup recipe to add more fibre and vegetables to your diet!

🥕Carrot, Lentil and Harissa Soup

1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
8 Carrots (large, chopped)
1 Onion (chopped)
4 Garlic Cloves (minced)
1/2 teaspoon Cumin (ground)
2 teaspoons Coriander (ground)
Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)
1 teaspoon Harissa
100 grams Dry Red Lentils (rinsed, drained)
1 litre Chicken Bone Broth

Put a large Dutch oven or pot over medium heat and melt the oil. Add the carrots and onion and cook for about six minutes, until the onion is just starting to soften.

Add the garlic, cumin, coriander, salt, pepper, and harissa. Cook, stirring constantly until fragrant, about one minute.

Add the lentils and water and stir. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat.

Simmer, covered, for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the lentils are cooked through.

Uncover and use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. Alternatively, add to a blender and blend until smooth, making sure to vent for heat to escape.

Serve and enjoy!

Introducing.... the 🧠Brain Resilience Program!

It will focus on:

- Baseline assessments and testing
- Nutrition strategies to support brain health
- Evidence-based supplementation to optimise brain resilience
- A practical Concussion First Aid Kit, as immediate nutritional support may help optimise recovery

Whether you have a child playing contact sport, you're an active adult, or you've experienced previous head knocks, I'd love to share this knowledge with you.

Watch this space as I begin sharing practical strategies to help protect the brain for sport, for life and for healthy ageing.

🧠 As part of my commitment to supporting optimal brain health, I'm excited to introduce Vielight Brain Photobiomodulation to the clinic!

Vielight uses near-infrared light delivered through a comfortable headset.

Photobiomodulation may support healthy cellular energy production, microcirculation, neuroplasticity and cognitive function, making it an exciting adjunct for brain resilience, concussion recovery, healthy ageing, athletes and supporting people experiencing stress, anxiety or PTSD.

Emerging research is also exploring its potential role in supporting people with Long COVID by helping to modulate neuroinflammation and promote brain recovery.

To celebrate its arrival, I'm offering an introductory special:

A package of 3 weekly Vielight sessions for $85 (usually $99)

Text me on 0432 194 735 to book your sessions.

🧠 Can we make the brain more resilient before a concussion or head injury occurs? Emerging research suggests we can!

Over the past 10 months I've recently completed advanced training in the ClearPath Method for neurological conditions, cognitive health and dementia prevention.

As a Mum of a 16-year-old son who plays Rugby Union, I found myself especially drawn to the area of concussion and brain resilience.

One of the highlights of the training was a two-hour guest lecture with renowned US military concussion expert Dr Michael Lewis, author of When Brains Collide.

One of the biggest take-home messages was that a concussion doesn't have to involve being knocked unconscious. Repeated smaller impacts over time can also affect brain health.

This isn't just relevant for rugby players. It also applies to sports such as soccer (heading the ball), AFL, boxing, horse riding, cycling, mountain biking, martial arts and even whiplash following a motor vehicle accident.

While I can now provide nutritional support to help optimise recovery following a concussion or post-concussion syndrome, what excites me most is helping people build a more resilient brain before an injury ever occurs.

Stay tuned for more information coming soon!

What if the foods you think are “healthy” aren’t actually working for YOUR body?

What if your morning breakfast is setting you up for an afternoon energy crash? Or that supposedly healthy snack is causing a bigger glucose spike than you realise?

I’m looking for 5 people to join my very first Metabolic Reset Group Coaching Program!

Over 3 weeks, you’ll learn about your own unique metabolic responses using a 2-week Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM), combined with live group coaching.

You’ll be able to see how your body responds to food, exercise, stress and sleep in real time, then use that information to make practical changes.

This program gives you real data about your body and the opportunity to learn what actually works for you.

And as a bonus, weight loss can often become easier when you learn how to support more stable blood sugar and insulin levels.
