About Nicole
After being confronted with declining health in her late 30’s, but being told by her Doctor she was fine, Nicole set out on a mission to regain her energy and vitality. Weight gain, joint pain, fatigue, being wired but tired and continually feeling “annoyed” were all becoming part of her daily life. Being overwhelmed with the “businesss” of life was taking its toll. Food & Lifestyle were the obvious choices. Diagnosed with the autoimmune disease Hashimostos, Adrenal Fatigue & Estrogen Dominance Nicole set about completely turn her life around by adopting a Primal/Paleo diet and focusing on downsizing and minamalising her life. While food played a large part in her recovery nothing was more profound that optimising her sleep, reducing stress and slowing life down. Closing their 7 Day a week retail store, and deciding to work from home to be with their children was life changing.
“At 48 I now feel more energised and in control of my moods than ever before. When you realise you can design your life and work to suit you & your family it opens up a whole new world of possibility's. I have to thank the Paleo lifestyle for showing me there is a better way to live to get more out of life each day”
Stewart’s Story
I’ve always worked long, hard hours. It’s what I was taught. Go to school, get a good job, work hard – don’t question anything, just keep going. You can rest & enjoy it when you retire. Sound familiar?
Nicole & I were running a Blind & Shutter Business as well as our 7 Day a week Homewares Retail Store. We were also renovating houses as a side hustle at night & every weekend. In my mind, I was doing it all for my family, working to give them the lifestyle I believed, they wanted. I was always like "Bill the Steam Shovel", hurry up, hurry up. I didn't have time to sit still or if we did a family activity, it was done in a rush because I was “so busy”. There was always work to be done.
After many years of this, Nicole started to get sick – completely worn out, stressed & tired. It took some time to realise our fast pace, extremely stressful, overworking lifestyle had done this to her. I had worked & rushed through my kids growing up, all the time in the pursuit of "it’s for the kids!".
The kids did not care about the lifestyle we were providing – they just wanted time with us. Also, I wasn't the picture of health I was telling myself! I had severe Asthma, digestive issues, chronic stress & didn't know how to enjoy my life if I wasn't working. I was also getting middle aged spread on my belly. Somehow I had turned into a grumpy middle aged selfish as***le that was too busy – for anyone or anything.
Nicole, developing and Autoimmune Disease made me realise there is more to life than working, money & keeping up with the Jones's. It was time for a change. We downsized, minimalised & started eating a Paleo style diet. Things changed dramatically! For us and the kids. I decided to work smarter and not harder. I decreased my work hours and returned to study Nutrition. I let go of the fears I had about not being smart enough and realised, now that I am older learning was easy. It was a massive decision to leave the money & being a well-known business owner I thought everyone knew & liked me for.
I now work from home, go for daily walks, meditate and spend time in the sun, spend quality time with my family & work out with weights. I banned myself from saying “Hurry Up”. I now schedule my work to fit around my lifestyle – not the other way around. I stopped worrying what I thought other people thought of me & that was one of the greatest feelings ever.
All this said, I would not change a thing, because I would not be here living this amazing life, without the bumpy road I called life. The past is the past, I live in the present now & prepare the best I can for the future. I am now doing something I am extremely passionate about, changing people’s lives. Helping clients make the lifestyle change in a hope they don't have to go through what we have gone through. Once you know this happy place of feeling healthy, happy & content, you won't look back.
