Why do I keep my group programmes to just 8 women?

Because health coaching isn’t only about learning what to do.

Often, women already know a lot about nutrition, exercise, sleep and looking after their health.

What can make the biggest difference is having somewhere to talk honestly about what is difficult, feeling understood, and having support while you put those changes into practice.

One of my favourite things about running the group programme is watching women realise they are not the only person struggling with things like weight gain, cravings, low energy, emotional eating or trying to prioritise themselves when life is already busy.

The women in the group often end up encouraging and supporting each other just as much as I support them.

That is why I deliberately keep it small.

With a maximum of 8 women, there is time to ask questions, share experiences and receive meaningful support rather than feeling like another person on a large online course.

My next 8-week programme starts on Friday 11th September at 10:00am*

If you’d like to know more about how the group works, send me a message with GROUP and I’ll happily send you the details.

Why does eating healthily sometimes feel harder than it should? 🛒

Walk into almost any supermarket and you are surrounded by choice.

But so much of that choice is highly processed, heavily marketed and designed to be convenient.

The aisles are full of products that are quick, cheap and easy to grab, while healthier options can sometimes take a little more planning, preparation and label reading.

That does not mean you need a perfect trolley.

And it does not mean every processed food is “bad”.

But our food environment absolutely influences the choices we make.

If healthier eating feels difficult, it is not always about willpower.

Sometimes it is about making the better option easier, more visible and more realistic in everyday life.

Myth Busting Monday: Feeling tired all the time is just part of being busy.

Feeling tired after a demanding day is normal.

Feeling exhausted most days, waking up unrefreshed or constantly relying on caffeine to get through the day is something worth paying attention to.

Persistent tiredness can have many possible causes, from poor sleep and chronic stress to nutrition, hormones, deficiencies or underlying health conditions.

It is easy to normalise exhaustion when life is busy.

But constantly feeling tired should not simply become your new normal.

If your energy has changed or fatigue is persistent, speak to your GP rather than just pushing through.

Feedback like this means so much to me, particularly because these reviews reflect exactly what I want women to experience when they work with me.

A supportive and non judgemental space.

Practical, evidence based guidance.

Realistic changes that can actually be sustained long term.

And, within the group programme, the opportunity to learn alongside other women who may be facing many of the same challenges.

Health coaching isn’t about being told what you *should* be doing or following another quick fix.

It’s about understanding your health, recognising what might be getting in the way and finding changes that work for you and your life.

My next 8-week group programme starts on Friday 11th September at 10:00am, with a maximum of just 8 women.

If you’ve been thinking about making changes to your health but feel like you need some support, accountability and guidance to actually put them into practice, you’re very welcome to get in touch.

If you have been thinking about making changes to your health, now is the time to start planning.

My 8-week group programme begins on Friday 11 September at 10.00am and is designed for women who want practical, supportive guidance around menopause, weight, habits, cravings, energy and long-term health.

It is a small group programme, with a maximum of eight women, so there is space for support, questions, accountability and real conversation.

Across the eight weeks, we will look at the areas that often make health feel harder during midlife, including:

Weight loss without feeling restricted

Blood sugar balance and cravings

Energy and motivation

Sleep, mood and brain fog

Stress and emotional eating

Movement and exercise

Building sustainable habits

Long-term health and confidence

This is not about quick fixes, strict rules or starting another plan that feels impossible to maintain.

It is about understanding what is happening in your body and learning how to make changes that feel realistic, manageable and kind.

September might feel a while away, but if you want to feel more in control of your health by autumn, now is the time to make a move.

Places are limited so the group can stay personal and supportive.

If you are ready to prioritise your health, build habits that actually last and feel more like yourself again, you can register via link in bio and send me a DM

If it took nearly a decade to diagnose almost any other common health condition, we would be outraged.

So why have we accepted it with endometriosis?

In the UK, it now takes an average of 9 years and 4 months from first seeking medical help to receiving an endometriosis diagnosis. That wait has actually increased from 8 years in 2020.

That can mean years of:

Painful periods.
Pelvic pain.
Heavy bleeding.
Pain during s*x.
Missed work or education.
Repeated appointments.
And being told symptoms are “normal” or that you are making too much of them.

This is not good enough.

As a GP, I think we need to keep improving awareness, listening properly to symptoms and taking menstrual health seriously much earlier.

Severe period pain should not simply be dismissed as part of being a woman.

And nobody should have to spend the best part of a decade fighting to understand what is happening in their own body.

We need to do better.

Herby Salmon with Roasted Courgettes & Mediterranean Vegetables 🐟🍅

A simple, nourishing dinner idea packed with protein, colour and healthy fats.

Salmon provides protein and omega-3 fats, while roasted vegetables and olive oil support satiety, energy and blood sugar balance.

Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

For the salmon:

2 salmon fillets
1 tbsp olive oil
Zest of ½ lemon
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste

For the vegetables:

1 courgette, sliced
1 red pepper, sliced
1 yellow pepper, sliced
1 red onion, sliced
1 cup cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Place the vegetables on a baking tray, drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, sprinkle over oregano, salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
Roast for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, mix olive oil, lemon zest, garlic, dill, parsley, salt and pepper.
Place salmon fillets on a lined baking tray and spread the herb mixture over the top.
Roast for another 12–15 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily.
Serve the salmon with the roasted Mediterranean vegetables.

Small daily choices can create big changes in how you feel 💜

Save this recipe for an easy, healthy dinner idea.

Myth: Hormone problems are just part of being a woman.

Hormonal changes are normal throughout life.

But constantly feeling exhausted, struggling with severe mood changes, painful periods, disrupted sleep or feeling like yourself only a few days each month should not simply be dismissed as “just hormones”.

Your symptoms deserve to be taken seriously.

Understanding what is happening is the first step towards getting the right support.

Why do I do what I do?

Because I have seen how often people know what they “should” be doing for their health, but still struggle to make it work in real life.

As a GP, I can explain the medical side.

Blood pressure.
Weight.
Sleep.
Hormones.
Stress.
Blood sugar.
Cholesterol.
Risk factors.

But knowledge alone does not always create change.

That is where health coaching comes in.

It allows me to look beyond the numbers and understand the person behind them.

What is getting in the way?
What feels overwhelming?
What has been tried before?
What is realistic right now?
What would actually make the biggest difference?

I do this work because I believe health should feel supportive, practical and personalised.

Not like another list of rules to follow.

Not like another reason to feel guilty.

And not like you have failed because a perfect routine did not fit into a very imperfect life.

Sometimes the biggest change comes from something small.

A better morning routine.
More regular meals.
A clearer boundary.
More sleep.
A short walk.
Strength training once a week.
Asking for support sooner.

I love being able to combine my medical experience with coaching because it helps people move from knowing what to do to actually finding a way to do it.

That is the part of this work I find most rewarding.

Helping people feel more confident, more informed and more in control of their health.
