💭 Giving you a new perspective

✨ Evidence based Natural Medicine for Women’s Health, Acne, Thyroid Conditions, Gut Health, Fatigue & Weight loss

25/02/2026

A little bit more about me ✨My work is grounded in one core belief: you deserve a relationship with food that feels supportive, nourishing and free - not stressful, confusing or punishing.

And DEFINITELY not one that involves calorie counting.

I learned this the hard way 👇
In my teens I battled Anorexia Nervosa after getting swept up in diet culture. That experience shaped everything I do now. It gave me deep empathy for the complexity of food, body image and health… and it ignited my passion for helping people rebuild trust with their bodies in a way that feels empowering, education based (not fear based) and long-term!

I also love supporting women with their hormones as I’ve been through my own journey of losing my period, being on the pill & hormonal acne.�
💻 For the last six years, I’ve worked across physiotherapy clinics, dermatology clinics, corporate settings, gyms, pilates studios, schools and with elite athletes. I’ve taught workshops, run seminars and supported complete beginners who felt lost with nutrition. Today, I consult exclusively online and run nutrition workshops and events in Perth, Western Australia.��🤍 If you also view Nutrition as much more than calorie counting, fad diets & deficits - you’re in the right place. Or, if you’re currently in that cycle and want to open your mind to a new approach… keep following along, I’ve got you 🤝

Quite honestly, I hate the sentiment of “calories in vs. calories out” 😬 this is why I developed the Fuel Your Body™️ Program and discourage my clients from using apps like my fitness pal.

Calories show one thing - energy.

They do not show HOW your body uses that energy & the effect the food may have on hormone health, muscle growth, inflammation levels and blood sugar levels.

As somebody who navigated an eating disorder in their teens, weight loss should NEVER be done with calorie tracking only as it can come at a cost to your overall health.

✨ Major message: Just counting calories is a great disrespect to your body - as you’ll hear in this video, the way our body responds to an apple, nuts and 2 small chocolates is VERY different to having 4 cheeseburgers.

🤍 If this resonates with you, my DMs are always open to chat. You may also benefit from checking out my links in bio for the Fuel Your Body Program! It’s a game changer if you’re sick of counting calories.

Don’t keep waiting - start making moves now ❤️‍🔥 If you’ve been watching from the sidelines, this post is for you.

1️⃣ Start by using the “health” app on your iPhone. This is the app I use with my clients.

2️⃣ Start noticing more about your cycle. Not just what your existing app has told you. What I look for:
- How many days (on average) between your bleeds?
- When your breakouts usually flare: all the time, just before your period, in the middle of your cycle?
- Other bodily signs of hormone imbalances: irregular bowel motions, depression, high anxiety, extreme fatigue etc.
- If you notice ovulation mid cycle

💡 These all come up as trackable symptoms on the apple health app which is why I love it!

3️⃣ Stabilise your blood sugar. The simplest and most effective change you can make yourself - include protein in each meal, pair carbs with protein & fats and avoid long gaps between meals.

^ If the above feels overwhelming, it’s a sign you may need 1:1 support sooner rather than later 🤍

Here at Redefine I pride myself in helping people understand where their imbalances are coming from ✨

Knowledge truly is power - talking clients through their blood results allows them to see a direct need to moderate stress, improve nutritional status and take supportive supplements to correct deficiencies.

I do this with all my 1:1 clients and Tier 2 of the Fuel Your Body Program™️

📚 Always book an initial consultation first as I will direct you on which tests are necessary & how to address this with your GP or through a private testing facility.

All testing I refer for is specific & backed by clinical reasoning 🤍 If you’re wanting to work 1:1, head to my links in bio for more information.

Fibre is one of the most under-appreciated tools for hormone balance, especially in women 👇

It helps regulate Oestrogen levels, supports gut-hormone communication, improves insulin sensitivity (which directly affects other hormones), and supports regular bowel motions (a non negotiable for hormone health)

🤍 Try this PUMPKIN, BEETROOT & CASHEW SALAD Recipe. This is definitely a hormone loving recipe. High fibre, low GI carbohydrates & healthy fats. Pair it with a source of protein (such as chicken) and you have a perfectly balanced plate.

INGREDIENTS 🥗
1/2 a kent pumpkin, diced into 2x2cm cubes with skin cut off
2 tsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
250g of ready to eat baby beetroot (usually comes in a vacuum sealed bag)
1/2 jar of drained and sliced sun-dried tomatoes
50g raw cashews
300g of dark leafy greens (I used a spinach and rocket mix)
50g Danish style reduced fat feta, diced small or crumbled

Dressing: 2 tbsp balsamic dressing, 1/2 tbsp seeded mustard, 1 tbsp of sun-dried tomato oil (or plain olive oil)

METHOD 🍴
1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees c (fan forced).
2. Place pumpkin on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Toss through until evenly coated.
3. Place in the oven for 20 minutes until it starts to get tender.
4. Whilst pumpkin is cooking, take beetroot out of the packet and dice each baby beetroot into 2cm cubes.
5. Place leafy greens, beetroot, sun-dried tomatoes and feta in a bowl.
6. Pour in dressing and toss through until ingredients are combined. Set aside.
7. After 20 minutes, take the pumpkin out, give it a toss and add in cashews. Place back in oven for 10 minutes for pumpkin to become caramelised and cashews to be light brown and roasted.
8. When pumpkin and cashews are out of the oven, let them cool and add them to the salad bowl. Toss everything together so all is evenly coated in the dressing.

Enjoy!

As requested, my version of the “my face when” trend 😅

I’m VERY passionate about my work - those closest to me have seen these faces before. Professionally, I always try to be as diplomatic as possible and not “rock the boat” too much 😬

I focus on education to allow people to make their own judgements, rather than calling people out.

Here’s some context behind my reactions
1️⃣ I understand companies need to make money. However, using known figures to sell vulnerable people struggling with their health a false narrative is not ethical.
2️⃣ Too many influencers use their appearance as leverage to give Nutrition and exercise advice. They’re using simple psychology to message “if you eat like this/buy this program… you’ll look like this” which is very damaging.
3️⃣ Hormone balancing and sustainable fat loss is not in a single meal (or even a week of meals). It’s a journey and it requires individualised guidance. What may help elicit fat loss in one person is not a universal “fat loss” solution.
4️⃣ These people would be much better off having a slice of high fibre bread, 2 eggs and spinach as a lovely balanced breakfast than being scared of food and filling their coffee with fats.
5️⃣ I see all too often that people aren’t educated enough about their personal Nutrition needs, so in an effort to be “healthier” they do “all or nothing” approaches like detoxes. Of course you feel better when you’re staying hydrated and not dysregulating your blood sugar with poor food choices - you CAN also do that with eating the right things 💭

If you have PCOS, please understand this:

You are not “stuck” where you are.

💭 PCOS is driven by your ovaries responding to imbalanced signals from your metabolism, blood sugar levels and nervous system.

Which means there are powerful ways to support your hormones.

In clinic, the foundations I prioritise with every PCOS client are:
✔️ Insulin & blood sugar balance: because high insulin directly increases testosterone and makes ovulation harder.
✔️ Nervous system regulation: chronic stress shifts your body into survival mode, disrupting hormone signalling, worsening insulin resistance and negatively impacting ovulation.
✔️ Controlled strength training: the right type & amount of resistance training improves insulin sensitivity and supports ovulation (for each individual)
✔️ Nutritional status: nutrient deficiencies quietly drive fatigue, cravings, poor cycle health, and slow progress. Food quality, portions, and timing all matter here.

When these pillars are supported together, we often see:
• more regular cycles
• improved ovulation signalling
• reduced acne and bloating
• better energy
• easier weight management
• improved fertility markers

This is why PCOS care is never about a generic meal plan or random supplements.

It’s about personalised nutrition, evidence-based supplementation, appropriate training load, and creating a better internal environment.

Progress is possible. With the right support, symptoms don’t have to worry you or rule your life 🤍

✨ The good news?

When you support:
• Insulin balance�• Nervous system regulation�• Ovulation signalling�• Targeted nutrition

You CAN alter the hormonal loop.

👩🏻‍🏫 This is the work I do as a Clinical Nutritionist and personal trainer that specialises in women’s hormone health.

I support women with PCOS to navigate persistent weight gain, bloating, confusing advice from doctors, absent periods and pressure to take medication.

The name “polycystic ovarian syndrome” can make it sound like PCOS is just about your ovaries - I get it.

This is why taking medication or suffering with symptoms is accepted as the “norm” - it can seem like a syndrome that is out of your control.

Trust me, it’s not 👇

Realising your ovaries respond to signals from:
🧠 your brain
🩸 your insulin levels
😮‍💨 your stress hormones

Gives us 3 avenues to help manage symptoms you may be experiencing such as bloating, weight gain, irregular cycles, acne and fatigue.

All of the above can be addressed with evidence backed supplementation, correcting nutritional deficiencies, personalised advice on carbohydrate targets, a tailored exercise strategy & patience.

All of which are the foundations of my 1:1 consultations. If you’re tired of guessing and ready for personalised support - DM me and we can discuss your options 🤍
