💫 This may not be a popular opinion…

…but so many of us are completely overwhelmed and something has to give!

It might be your house, your work, your kids, your health… where are your priorities?

Are you letting society dictate what they are or should be? Instead of following your inner values and truths - and living a less busy, calmer and healthier life?

With me working part time we sure don’t go on as many holidays as others, we have one old car currently (before that my own car was practically vintage 😂) but I definitely get a better balance for our family.

I still get overwhelmed and a little anxious (nowhere near what I used to) but it took getting really sick for me to see that wasn’t the way.

I know, deep within me, that if I hadn’t been burned out I wouldn’t have got along COVID. My body had nothing left. No resources to heal.

It’s taken 6 years to claw back up - and I have. And I’m grateful, and determined that I will always prioritize fresh air and getting my kids to activities over cleaning - so my house (as lovely as it is) will never be a showhome.

As my friends and I say “take me how you find me” if you judge my house, I’d rather not be your friend anyway 😂

Stop setting ridiculous goals for yourself and focus a bit more on small steps to wellbeing - both mental and physical.

And please do share whether you agree with me - and what you struggle with?

Children’s Health - Practitioner Masterclass

Most of us were taught (if we were taught about children at all in our courses!) about childhood obesity, asthma and allergies as separate conditions - but what if they are connected by a common early-life story?

Did you know that around 80% of brain development occurs by the age of three - and the gut microbiome is developing just as rapidly?

Join me as we explore how early nutrition and microbial development may influence lifelong health, this is an important class for any practitioner seeing children in their clinic - or giving you the confidence to actually take on children as clients/ patients!

We will also dive into sleep problems - did you know that according to the CDC 35% of children between 4 months and 14 years don’t get enough sleep? A lot of these issues may be due to anxiety as parents report up to 1 in 4 children struggling to fall asleep due to worries and anxiety.

Sleep health should be considered a fundamental pillar of children’s welfare - like their gut microbiome!

🗓️ Wednesday 8th June
⏰ 9.30-12pm Irish time
📍 On Zoom

Will be recorded so live attendance is not a must! Get a €10 discount with code FACEBOOK for this once off to see what my masterclasses are like.

Leave with the confidence to make a difference in a child’s life - because you will understand the science and have the tools to implement change.

💫 If you’ve ever thought:

“I know what to do… I just can’t seem to keep doing it”

You are not failing.

Perimenopause changes energy, recovery, appetite, stress tolerance and sleep. The old “push harder” or “eat less, move more” approach often stop working.

That’s why my Programme isn’t about extreme diets or perfection.

It’s about building a body and nervous system that actually feels safe enough to support lasting change.

➡️ Small steps
➡️ Clear guidance
➡️ Realistic support
➡️ Long-term health

We meet twice a month, 1-2pm (votes on my stories showed lots of you love a lunchtime slot). I want to educate and empower you but you will also take immediate action - there will be workbooks so you can start right away!

You are going to leave every call not only inspired and hopeful but with a clear plan of what to do, and the reasons why it’ll support you and your goals ❤️

You can jump into VIP for additional 1:1s with me but the first three women all get a complementary call with me worth €200 🥰

Comment THRIVE for all the details ❤️ if you know any woman who is struggling and needs my help please tag her, share this with her - let’s reach many so those who are ready get to join me.

💫 Learn to Interpret your own blood test results

With the medical ranges so wide, missing so many people who feel awful and being told everything is normal…

Not quite medical gaslighting as doctors and nurses are working with the figures they’ve been given! I am lucky enough to be able to ignore those figures and look at the optimum numbers instead.

It’s the first thing I do with any client - and now I’m once again offering it for a group of people!

This Wednesday 20th of May I’m running a one hour webinar to show you to read your own results. And to know what to ask for, and what to do about the results.

I obviously won’t be able to go through everything but I’ll cover some of the key markers that I look at for my clients.

You will get the following as part of the fee (€20 plus Eventbrite fee):
- Webinar and recording
- a list of what to ask for
- a list of ranges
- tips on how to address the results

For example we will look at:
✅ Thyroid function
✅ Liver and cholesterol
✅ Blood cells
✅ Vitamin B12, folate and ferritin
✅ Glucose and Hba1c
✅ Inflammation

I’m really good at explaining things and you can see this will be jam packed with information - so a bit of a no brainer for me if you’d like to take control of your own health 🥰

Any questions, let me know here or in the DMs! Link to book is in the bio (or comments on Facebook)

💫 Are your mornings setting you up for a calm day?

In my 3 day challenge Rise & Thrive the thing that came up most was anxiety that increased during the day, waking up tired, no focus, sugar cravings and energy slumps in the afternoons. And being tired but wired in the evenings.

On day 1 I explained why - on day 2 we looked at nervous system regulation tools and on day 3 how to nourish to support yourself. I even included a brand new meditation 🥰

I’m going to make it available as a mini course as it was packed with information and feedback has been amazing! If you’d like to know more send me a DM 🥰

Here’s how my mornings look:

- get up and put the kettle on, drink water
- make tea (always elderberry & echinacea)
- feed the kids & make lunchboxes
- take tea outside and listen to the birds, wind, river.. I look all round the valley and mountains and take some slow breaths and remind myself I live in Paradise and am the luckiest woman ever
- make sure kiddos are dressed or getting dressed and then I get myself sorted as hubby walks them to the school bus
- enjoy a relaxed breakfast
- start work and a little while later have a first coffee (around 10am)

On weekends and holidays I can totally have coffee earlier as I’m in a totally relaxed state - but not during the week when I have gazillion of things to do 😂 I was in a foul mood this morning and exhausted. The fresh air helped and 20 seconds blast of cold water at the end of my shower did the job! I was happy and smiling 🙂

Are your mornings rushed & stressful? Let me know below if you have found what works for you.

💫 The BS that is “eat less, move more”….

….has led to so many women undereating and over exercising. Neither of which is conducive to health after 35!

We know the toll stress takes on the body and both of those are very common culprits in the women that I help.

If I hear from one more woman that she was told by a doctor/ consultant to lose weight before helping them I’ll scream.

I help women who are so unwell they are barely eating, yet when they ask for help they are told to stop being lazy, eat less and just get off their ass and move.

Well they would if they could; wouldn’t they?!

Let’s bring it back to basics and nourish your body. Nourish it to make energy, so that you then can move - and help your thyroid work properly!

Here’s the way I teach all my clients, build your plate like this:

1. Choose your protein (animal, plant, whichever)
2. Add colour (fruit, veg, legumes, nuts, seeds) - feeding your gut microbiome
3. Add fats (olive oil, avocado, nuts, seeds, butter, full fat Greek yoghurt etc)
4. Add carbs (grains, starches etc)

And next I suggest you try and eat roughly the same time each day - reliably and in routine as this helps the body feel safe. Digestion often works much better too - and anything that helps with safety can really support the thyroid.

Once you start nourishing your body, make sure you also tune into it - if you feel like you have the energy, then move your body. If rest sounds more appealing then do that!

Let’s stop with the body shaming and gaslighting people because they live in bigger bodies, it doesn’t help anybody actually get healthier and well.
