From our founder, Stephanie 💙

Four years ago I couldn’t swim without aids. In September, when I started triathlon training, I couldn’t breathe after the first 50 metres.

On Sunday 15 November I’ll swim the 300m leg of the South32 Bunbury Women’s Triathlon with my team, The Sunday Supremes.

I live with Stiff Person Syndrome, the rare neurological condition Celine Dion has. A Current Affair shared my story last weekend: https://youtu.be/CK4FdHD_8Pc

I am fundraising through RPH Research Foundation to support Cell & Tissue Therapies research and help advance future treatment options for people living with serious diseases like SPS.

Sponsor a metre for $1. 300 metres, 300 dollars to start. $10 sponsors 10 metres, $50 sponsors 50. Every metre counts:

Can’t donate? Please share. Pass this on to your friends, your Facebook groups and any organisations you’re part of. Every share helps raise awareness of SPS, a condition most people have never heard of.

Proudly fundraising in support of Cell and Tissue Therapies Research through RPH Research Foundation.

I just spent two intense nights leveling up my AI skills at Outskill's AI For Business Leaders Bootcamp — prompt engineering, building custom AI agents, automation workflows, and AI-powered content creation.

Why does this matter for you? Because through The Practical Wellness, I build the AI chatbots and voice assistants that help small businesses and health clinics save time, respond to patients/customers faster, and stop missing enquiries after hours. I like to actually build with the tools before I recommend them to clients — not just talk about them.

Two brain-melting nights, well worth it. If you've been wondering whether AI could take some of the admin load off your business, have a look at what I offer here: https://thepracticalwellness.com.au/ai-implementation

Welcome to The Practical Wellness.

Quick question — which of these sounds like you?

• ❌ You’re doing “all the right things” but still feel off.
• ❌ You’ve read the articles, tried the advice, and it doesn’t quite stick.
• ❌ You suspect the answer is somewhere in the science, but no one’s
explaining it plainly.

That’s exactly why The Practical Wellness exists.

I didn’t start here because I had all the answers. I started because I needed them.

Living with a rare autoimmune condition sent me deep into the science — the gut-brain connection, sleep architecture, the microbiome, and the environmental factors most people never think about. What I found was extraordinary. And almost completely underused.

So I wrote the books. Built the platform. And now I’m here.

I’m Stephanie — scientist, published author, and founder of The Practical Wellness. With a background in chemistry, public health, and nearly 30 years in health and life sciences, I built this platform on one belief: real science should be accessible to real people, in real life.

Here’s what you’ll find on this page:
• 🧠 Mental fitness & emotional regulation
• 😴 Sleep science, routines & recovery
• 🌿 Gut health, microbiome & nutrition
• 🏡 Healthy environment — the air and surfaces you live with every day

No wellness theatre. No trend-chasing. Just the biology your body already runs on — explained clearly enough that you can actually use it.
