My Approach
Real food. Real science.
Real life.
Nutrition should make your life easier, not smaller. My approach brings together evidence-informed nutrition, practical coaching and real-life habits so you can improve how you eat, fuel your body properly and build something you can actually keep doing.
Principles
The ideas that shape everything I do.
I do not believe in rigid plans, fear-based food rules or handing someone a meal plan and hoping for the best. Good nutrition support should help you understand your body, your habits and your food choices, then build from there.
Food quality first
Before we worry about tiny details, we look at the foundations: enough protein, more plants, enough fibre, useful fats, steady meals and food that actually supports your goals.
Evidence-informed, not trend-led
I care about the science, but I also care about what works in normal life. The aim is practical guidance that makes sense, not chasing every new wellness trend that appears with dramatic lighting and a discount code.
Fuelling matters
Whether you strength train, ride bikes, run, walk, practise yoga or just want better energy through the day, your body needs enough fuel. Under-eating, skipping meals or winging it usually catches up eventually.
Your plan should fit your life
Your nutrition has to work around your routine, preferences, family, budget, training and energy levels. A plan is only useful if you can actually follow it when life gets busy.
Plants are powerful
Whole plant foods can support fibre intake, gut health, heart health, long-term health and overall diet quality. You do not need to be fully vegan to benefit from eating more plants.
Progress beats perfection
The goal is not to eat perfectly. It is to build consistency, confidence and habits that keep moving you in the right direction.
The process
From first hello to lasting change.
Working together is a structured process. I want to understand what is really going on before making recommendations, then support you as your plan develops over time.
- 01
Apply to work with me
You start by getting in touch and telling me what you need help with. I'll check whether the 12-week package feels like the right fit and whether I'm the right person to support you.
- 02
Complete your intake forms
Before we meet, you'll complete your food diary, exercise diary, health questionnaire and lifestyle forms. This helps me understand your diet, sleep, movement, goals, preferences and anything that may be getting in the way.
- 03
Initial consultation
We'll have a 60-minute consultation, in person or online, to talk through your goals, current habits, health history, training, routine and what you want to change.
- 04
Structured reset phase
You'll complete a 10 to 14 day reset phase designed to improve meal quality, protein intake, consistency and routine. This gives us a clearer baseline before your personalised plan is created.
- 05
Your personalised protocol
After the reset, I'll create your personalised nutrition protocol and talk you through it. This is where we build a plan around your body, goals, lifestyle and what we have learned so far.
- 06
Review, refine and keep going
Across the 12 weeks, you'll complete weekly check-ins and we'll have regular review sessions to see what is working, what needs adjusting and how to keep building habits that last.
The bigger picture
Nutrition is only one part of the picture.
Food matters, but it does not exist in isolation. Sleep, stress, movement, training, recovery, digestion, strength and routine all affect how you feel and how well a plan works.
Food and fuelling
We'll look at meal structure, protein, carbohydrates, fats, fibre, hydration and whether you are eating enough to support your goals.
Strength and movement
Strength training, walking, mobility, yoga, running, cycling or whatever movement fits your life can all play a role in health, confidence and long-term function.
Sleep and recovery
If sleep is poor or recovery is being ignored, nutrition has to work much harder. We'll look at routines and habits that support better recovery.
Digestion and comfort
Bloating, irregularity, food reactions or digestive discomfort can make eating well feel harder. We'll look for patterns and practical starting points.
Energy and cravings
Cravings and energy dips are often useful information. We'll look at meal timing, protein, fibre, total intake and the habits that may be driving them.
Long-term habits
The real goal is not a perfect fortnight. It is building skills and routines you can keep using after the package ends.
So what's in the 12 week package?
