you can find me here 🌸 and in between sessions, gazing out into the sunshine, tea or sticky chai drowned in honey in hand, thinking about how incredible you all are, or how proud I am of you for sharing how you have really been feeling. Our truth is so healing for us and our body and I love being able to provide a space where you feel safe enough to share it 🤍

When I am not at you can usually find me by the sea, I have a thing about needing to see it; something I believe I inherited from my poppy brown who said he used to run on his lunch breaks up a big hill, scale a building and sit on the roof, just to catch a glimpse of the glorious sparkling sea. You are like me, he’d say. We have to see it. And I try to, daily.

You can also find me soaking in a .spray magnesium bath; I’m bias, but it’s heaven. Or turning the pages of a crime fiction book, usually in the bath also. If I’m not here, I’m seeking out those dusk coloured skies, I’m giggling with my girlfriends or having a pretty epic conversation over chai. ☕️ 💕

Lately I’ve been feeling like there is less to prove. I’ve found a comfort in me that I haven’t felt in a long long time and while this means you get a lot of random posts on here like pretty flowers, pink skies and cute surfers running to the ocean; I hope I can inspire you to get outside. That I can remind you that perfect health doesn’t exist and that there is no elusive place of wellness to reach. So we can stop trying ☺️ I do love to share helpful little bits and pieces that I believe can support you and your body and I am passionate about treating women’s bodies gently and meeting you where you are at.

I am more active these days over on Instagram 🌸
Thank you for being here. It feels like a special little place that we currently find ourselves in 🥰🩷💫🌸 x 📸

one of my morning clients just said to me, thank you for not shaming me for liking choccy biccies with my tea ☺️🌸 … never x

and thank you for believing that everything I am going through right now is impacting my physical health; that it isn’t just about taking every food group away, but supporting me and my body 💖 … always x

Nutrition support, wellbeing support, health support, it should feel supportive. It shouldn’t be extreme or add further stress or drive shame or blame. We go gently around here, with you and your body and let’s be real, it’s probably not the choccy biccies that you enjoy with a cup of tea that are derailing your health, it’s probably the extreme amounts of stress you are under, the lack of support for you and your body, the pace, the pressure, overworked systems that just need a few supportive strategies. We’ve got this 🩷 and I’ve got you x

I was mapping out blood results in clinic today 🩸 making connections while interpreting your test results. My process kind of looks like a whole lot of scribble with a pen and paper to everyone else, but it makes perfect sense to me ☺️

When I was 17 I told my nutritionist at the time that I wanted to study clinical nutrition. He had assisted me in regaining massive parts of my health back and meeting this man changed the course of my life. 🤍

I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to handle the science aspects of the nutrition course. Nervous that I wasn’t smart enough and that I hadn’t engaged in any science subjects beyond a year 7 level.
He gifted me a roll of butchers paper and told me to ‘map it out’.
I’d roll it out on the floor during every scary science subject and map out the body systems, the connections, the big scary terminology that only made sense to me when I could see it all mapped out on a big piece of paper. I’d stand back and look over it all and he would tell me to use the back part of my brain, to believe in myself and to just keep ‘mapping it out’. And so I did. I mapped it out for one nutrition course, one health science degree, one masters in human nutrition and research, and I’m still mapping it out everyday when I am working with you all in clinic 🥰🤍

‘Mapping it out’ is one of my favourite parts of my clinic day. I LOVE playing body detective and making the connections that help provide us the path of how we want to move forward and what we want to focus on; whilst also providing us some answers that I know give you all so much peace. I know what it is like to feel like a struggling patient - I’ve been one at many different points in my own life and journey. To have practitioners that ‘map it out’ for you, that help you to make sense of what can feel like a jumble of symptoms; is truly life changing.

Because if I’ve learnt anything in the last 12 years of being a clinical nutritionist, it is that the body is never wrong. When we begin to make those connections and we ‘map it out’, it usually begins to make sense to you and me 🩷 and from this beautiful and hopeful place, we can begin to provide it some support 💫 x

I watch this little Aussie family online sometimes and they do this thing called Friday night fry ups; and it’s all freezer food and it’s fried and they dance around the kitchen together and they sing and they laugh and they put a huge piece of towel or foil down on the table, and they put it all in the middle and they sit around together at the same table and share this Friday night fry up and it looks so connected, happy and whole that it makes me smile. I’m a nutritionist and maybe I wouldn’t change a thing here? It doesn’t look like I should or that I need to.
I smile everytime I see them on my feed. The warmth, the fun, the joy, how connected they seem every Friday together. It’s their family ‘party’ night and it’s the cutest party of 3 I think I’ve ever seen.
I remember when I was at uni studying nutrition and a lecturer gave us a case study of a man who smoked one cigarette per day, but he did it standing with the shop owner next door where he described it as them having conversations everyday that made him laugh, that changed his life, his day and his business, and they both took a break and had a coffee and a cigarette together out the front of their shops. My lecturer asked us if we would take the cigarette away?
We all said yes and proposed different options he could pop in its place, like a protein snack or just the coffee with his neighbour and friend. (We were budding nutritionists of course).
My lecturer said he wouldn’t take it away and we were all stunned. He said ok, he is smoking daily, which we would like to see a change, but what happens to this man if we take it away? Maybe he stops sitting with his mate daily for a connected chat and a break. Maybe he now doesn’t step outside of his shop at this time, have the sun hit his face, laugh and connect. What happens then?
I feel this way about the family fry up. To me, the joy, warmth and connection, clearly outweighs what they have for dinner on this one night per week. That lecturer helped pave the way I treat, even still today. And you probably feel that if we work together. It’s not about perfection, but it’s always about health and health can be this too 🤍

Is anyone else just a little bit over it? 🥴
I stood in my kitchen last week eating cheese on a rice cake, with my hair in a really strange end of day top knot, staring at the dishes in my sink and deciding not to cook as I couldn’t fathom adding anything more to the pile 😂
I scrolled my feed on here as I ate the cheese on rice cakes and just felt a bit over it 🫩 the curation, the perfection, the way it drives comparison and shame. The way even these women probably aren’t just making and eating curated meals all day long, but we forget that when we are in our own homes scrolling as we stand in our kitchens too.
This industry can be amazing and it can be really weird. I used to add to this I feel. Like the time I posted myself lovingly staring at kale and then went inside and ate some Cadbury’s that I wouldn’t dare have shared on my feed at this time. My clients back then asked me how I possibly got my green smoothies down and I probably waffled on about how important health was to me and concealed the fact that I ate any ounce of sugar. I did, I have for most of my life (bar a few patches where my relationship with food was fairly questionable).

I’m a clinical nutritionist and most days, my food doesn’t look Insta worthy. In truth? It’s kind of boring looking and mostly fairly bland 😂 it’s how I like to eat. Making it easy for myself, sticking with foods I know my body likes and can digest and having it fit with my lifestyle, as not to add to my stress and anxiety. Things I share with you too!
I also love chocolate and honey filled chai and I felt strange shame about that for yearrssss when I entered this industry. It’s why I always understand (yet it breaks my heart to see it), the shame that so many of you carry too, when you compare yourself to the curation. The perfectly plated meals, the green smoothies, the exorbitant powders, the I never eat: ….. humans on here, who by the way, often do differently when not posting on here ..

So yeah, I felt a bit over it. Seeing it all, all the time. Our actual lives looking so vastly different and so much more human. Cheese on rice cakes, mess, human. 🤍

As I’ve transitioned back into clinic for 2025, I’ve kept it soft & gentle within our little space with dim lighting and consultations by candle light 🤍 I’ve had a felt sense that you’ve all needed it, and I’ve been right. You’ve shed some soft tears and felt the comfort of the cozy couch beneath you, and a warm cuppa within your palms. I hope you’ve felt held so far as we walk into a new year of healing together.

As I sat in my car earlier today skimming my emails, I saw a subject line of ‘good news’ from a client who has been on a fertility journey for quite some time. I held my breath as I clicked into this email, heart racing, hoping with everything that it was the news I want for all of my clients navigating the fertility trenches - ‘I have some exciting news, I’m (🌸) weeks pregnant!’ Tears pricked my eyes immediately and soon they found their way down my cheeks as I sat there smiling and crying for a woman I’ve had the pleasure of working with; the magic of moments like these never ever gets old 💫.
It is the nature of this type of work that I get to be with you during some of your most challenging seasons, and also some of your most incredible ones too! There were so many other clients I held in my heart today as I sat in this incredible moment and incredible news, knowing that I’ve also held this same client in my heart and thoughts when previous women have shared their happy news. Just know that if you find yourself within your wait, my heart is with you and I sent you some love across the ocean as I basked in this beautiful news for my client and her partner today. x

Health journeys can be trying and they really can take you to your edge. As always, I recommend and advocate for you to build your care team, with practitioners and modalities that align with your belief system and that feel supportive on your unique journey. So that we can hold you and your body as needed, as you navigate your own 💖 x

These words went straight to my heart 🌸 & I hope they find yours today too, as we stand within the first day of a fresh new year. 💖

Maybe they find you at a time when you feel at war with yourself; with your body. Maybe they sneak in as your internal dialogue has been anything but a friend to you. Maybe they are a gentle reminder, a coming home, a small tap on the shoulder incase you forgot - that you are a friend to you. In all of your moments, but especially your unguarded and quiet ones. You are there, your body is there & it’s always been there x

In all of the flurry that can be new years posts on here, I hope you see this one and I hope it reaches your heart, just like it did to mine 💖

Here’s to another beautiful year together, new year, same magic that we create xx

Im off for a chai and an ocean dip 🌊 see, new year, same me 🥰 love you guys x

I thought I would have so many words to say today; but turns out I’m speechless ☺️💕💖🌸 I’ll try to find a few x
Happy 3rd Birthday 💖 3 years of opening your big beautiful doors into our pink oasis. I can only hope that these walls have had you feeling as safe & held as they have me feeling everyday!

I am so proud of this little clinic and the magic, truth, vulnerability and strength that is etched within these walls from all of you. If they could talk hey, wow they would share some stories ~ your incredible stories 🌸

Thank you for our best year yet. My best year yet. x
The gratitude I feel everyday in my heart in getting to be right there beside you for some of your biggest life and health journeys, is truly indescribable. My heart quite literally felt like it may burst today. I never thought I’d be standing right here as the owner of this incredible space. It still doesn’t feel real and maybe it won’t ever truly sink in; but we are doing the damn thing 💫 you and I.

What I will say is this, sometimes, often, when you think it’s the end, it may just surprise you & actually be the beginning 🌸 let life surprise you. In the most magical of ways. Thank you for the most incredible new beginning I hope we begin again and again and again on our journey together you and I.

Love you guys. You are magic x

5 years ago today, I hosted my very first all women’s event ~ with these two by my side (look how young and fresh we look 🥰☺️💕) my world hadn’t yet spun on its axis, G wasn’t yet a Mumma or the CEO of her incredible women’s hormone health studio ☺️ & C hadn’t yet begun to create the magic that is freshwater wellness centre.
wasn’t even on my radar; but my gosh in my soul I know this day was the day my heart screamed at me to transition into solely specialising in women’s health. 🌸

There was something in the air that day 💫 and I felt so me .. the first little baby step in the direction of my dreams. What I will say is this; trust your journey. Trust the process, and walk fiercely in the direction of your dreams ~ even if your legs shake for the first part of the way ☺️ I look back at this photo and the magic the 3 of us have gone onto create in our own little corners of the world and industry, and I think wow, we had no idea; but gosh we loved this day 🩷 it was so special.

Thank you to the women in my world who sat front row this day. My girlfriends, my family, my gorgeous clients. You still sit front row for me, in everything I do & I feel like the luckiest girl in the world x

To women’s health. You are a magical place to land. It feels so special to be a part of the magic and change occurring within this space. Thank you for all being on this ride with me 💫🌸 x

I approach the stress response like I do all things in clinic; holistically 🦋 I take a therapeutic approach that looks at supporting you & also supporting your accompanying body systems that may be playing a role in your level of body stress.

Why the body’s alarm system and stress response may activate; can be physical too.
I work with a lot of women who have spent a long time pushing beyond their capacity, and their body and emotional health are feeling this. But other functions in the body can create body and system stress too:

- Deficiencies and depletion.
- A taxed liver.
- Impaired gut function.
- Blood sugar irregularities.
- Hormonal shifts.
- Thyroid function. To name a few.

This way of treating the body means that we address symptom and body presentations as well as delving into some explorative testing.
It also means, that we look at tangible tools to support your emotional health and the health of your nervous system, as well as working to restore regulation and safety to the body.

- Clinical EFT
- Nature
- Gentle movement
- Natural light and sunlight
- Warm foods and drinks
- Heat and cold
- Somatic body holds
- Referrals to supportive body treatments such as acupuncture and craniosacral therapy.

You will know if you’ve worked with me, that I like you to walk out of our sessions feeling like you’ve gained a greater understanding of your body and why it is responding the way that it is. I know how powerful it can feel as a patient to begin to understand the ‘why’. 💕 x

On this day 💫 3 years ago; I know a few things to have been true…
🩷 I was sh****ng myself. We were in the midst of a lockdown and I’d signed a lease on the space that is now a month prior.
💕 my name was plastered on the window a few hours following a colossal cry session on the floor. I felt like the biggest imposter. Maybe don’t believe that everything you see on this platform is the whole story; but hopefully you know that by now ☺️
🩷 I apparently FaceTimed my pop to share all the juicy details. When he was alive he told all of the people in his local chemist shop I studied medicine. Close. (not). But he always thought I was the bees knees.
💕 looked like a building site and Elle Brown herself felt wayy out of her depth.
🩷 worked her magic and we decided on the final logo and decal.
💕 The boy who broke my heart painted the walls. I kind of love that he did. It was the last day I bought a piccolo.
🩷 The women in my life shower me with love always. This day was no exception. This artwork by one of my friends (now not so little ones 🥹) is still on display 🌸
💕 the month following this (and the two years after that) - were a blur. This year has felt like the first full year where the magic is flowing, my heart has been a healing & our health has been shifting 🦋

I love to look back at this time. The girl in these pictures had no idea & I’m kind of grateful she didn’t. I’m also so proud of her. Her whole life blew up around this time, (for the better). ☀️ I’m so glad I stuck with it. This clinic has been my favourite thing I’ve ever done in my work, & it’s been such a vital part of my healing, as it has been yours.
Next month we celebrate 3 wonderful years here and I truly feel like the magic has only just begun 💫💕

Thank you for filling my space and heart with so much love, truth, vulnerability and healing. I truly cry happy tears a few times per week these days 🥰😘 xx

04/09/2024

Just me today, in my little clinic after one of my clients told me she loved my red ink ❤️🩷 ~ After 3 days of the most incredible clients, sitting in so much truth, vulnerability, strength & softness; I had this moment where I felt like I am exactly where I am meant to be 🌸 thank you for being a part of my dreams coming true with it’s the clinic of my dreams and that is largely due to all of you, and my belief that every path I’ve had to go down, has led me right here, to owning and running this incredible little space that I feel so proud to call mine 🥹

This little heart & the pink you all love so dearly within is for my Angel friend, who I know walks alongside us all as we embark on healing together 💕 and my little ‘truth’ is for me ~ a continual reminder that in health and healing, truth is a vital component. That in the moments I am seperate from what feels true to me - I am seperate from myself, my body, my limits, my capacity, my nervous system, my soul. I share about truth a lot within clinic, especially with my clients who have too, walked a health and anxiety journey. When we find ourselves deep within struggle, it strips us bare. The gift, is that it brings us closer to our truth 🩷

Thank you for being here and being a part of this little community. I love spending my days with you x
