🌞What a Beautiful Morning, 🌞

And what a year its been💫

I still can't believe the Research paper I co-authored , was published in the Cureus Journal yesterday.🎉

We completed the BCCR®️ Menopause research around June last year and I think we submitted the paper to the journal around September and weve been just waiting patiently ever since, not knowing when it would be, and then we got the news yesterday

We had a quick call when we heard with Neuroscientist Abhijeet Satani , as we were all just so excited.

This research was never to prove that we have cracked some sort of unknown Menopause code, but to show theres more options, more support that could be offered that could make a difference to how Women experience Menopause or Perimenopause, allowing them to regain whatever control they can so they can improve their experience of it and quality of life.

Its a piece of the puzzle, something that addresses the pieces that don't often get enough attention that could make the difference to everything else.

Ive obviously witnessed how this work made a difference with how I experienced many Auto-immune physical symptoms that are also Menopause symptoms, and supported my recovery massively and I am so passionate about being able to support others , whether thats alongside medical support or not, if for whatever reason other approaches arent right for someone.

This research is only the beginning, NEXT, we want to see the impact after testing over longer periods of time, but for this initial research we just wanted to see the impact, if any at all (and we definitely seen the impact of one 2.5 hour session)

We are looking for more participants to take part in phase 2 for a 3 session study which will be monitored for longer.

My dream is , Id love to get this as something that could be funded in the future where women can get referred to by their GP
Just putting it out there💫💫

🤷‍♀️Sometimes you are not reacting to the thing itself
You are reacting to what it came to mean

Sometimes I think of this work a bit like this

At some point in life, something happens that feels a bit of a sting

Maybe someone laughs
Maybe you feel judged
Maybe you feel left out
Maybe you feel embarrassed
Maybe something happens that makes you feel small, unsafe, or not good enough

And the thing is, when we are young, we do not always have the fully developed rational part online to make proper sense of it all. The prefrontal cortex, which helps with planning, weighing things up, and making sense of things more logically, carries on maturing into the mid to late 20s, not just childhood. (National Institute of Mental Health)

So often, we do not take in the full story
We take in the feeling

Not

❌️maybe that person was having a bad day
or
❌️maybe that says more about them than me

We take in

😔that hurt
😔I am not good enough
😔that is not safe
😔I do not want to feel that again

And because the brain is clever, it tries to help

It creates little protective voices

😔Do not do that
😔People will judge you
😔You are not good at that
😔Best stay safe
😔Do not risk the sting again

The problem is, those voices can stay long after the moment has passed

So years later, you can be an adult wondering why something feels so hard

✔️Why you avoid exercise
✔️Why being seen feels uncomfortable
✔️Why speaking up feels bigger than it should
✔️Why rest feels wrong
✔️Why boundaries make you feel guilty

A lot of the time, it is not really about the thing itself

It is about the meaning your system gave it at the time

That is the kind of work I do

Not pretending those voices are silly
Not forcing you to push through them
But getting curious about what they are trying to protect you from

Because once that starts to make sense, the pattern usually does too

If this feels relevant, my TLC Space session is a gentle place to start

⚠️You dont need to know where it started or why- you just need to know how you want to feel now around certain things, especially if its a behaviour that could improve your health as well as your life.

“If you don’t like vegetables… it’s probably not about the vegetables.”

I hear this a lot from adults:
“I just don’t like veg”
“I’ve never eaten it”
“I can’t get it down”

And honestly… I get it.

If your body isn’t used to something, it won’t feel natural to eat it. It can taste stronger, feel uncomfortable, even make you want to gag.

That’s not you being awkward.
That’s your body choosing what’s familiar.

We’re wired that way.

It’s the same reason children often reject new foods. Research shows it can take multiple exposures, sometimes 10 to 15 times, before something starts to feel familiar enough to accept.

So when you’ve gone years without eating certain foods… of course it’s not going to feel easy overnight.

But avoiding it completely doesn’t help either.

It just keeps the pattern exactly as it is.

A better approach is to lower the pressure.

Small amounts.
Different textures.
Different ways of cooking it.

Not a full plate of something you already think you hate.

More like letting your system get used to it slowly.

Think of it like walking into cold water.
If you run straight in, your body reacts.
If you ease yourself in, it adjusts.

Food works in a similar way.

And the other layer people often miss is what’s going on in your head while you’re eating it.

If the internal dialogue is:
“I hate this”
“I don’t want this”
“This is horrible”

Your body listens.

It tightens, resists, rejects.

You don’t need to convince yourself you love it.

Just get to neutral.

“This is different, but I’m ok eating it”
“This is doing something good for me”

That alone can change how your body responds over time.

Because this isn’t just about vegetables.

It’s about patterns.
Familiarity.
And how your body learns what feels safe.

And that’s exactly the kind of thing I work through with people.

Not forcing change…
but helping it feel easier and more natural.

If this is something you’ve struggled with, you’re not alone.

And it doesn’t have to stay that way.

If you want support working through patterns like this, feel free to DM me “TLC” or have a look at my TLC Space Sessions 💛

“Just do this and you’ll be fine”… if only it was that simple 🤔

I sit somewhere in the middle with all of this.

I believe in holistic health.
I also believe in evidence, safety, and doing things properly.

And what I’m seeing more and more is this divide.

People being told not to trust doctors.
People being told not to touch anything holistic.

Both sides acting like the other is the problem.

But it’s not that simple.

Medication helps a lot of people.
It also has risks.

Holistic approaches can be really helpful.
They can also be misused or just not right for someone.

So a lot of the time, it’s not just about the method.
It’s about the person using it.

There are amazing doctors and healthcare professionals.
There are also some who get things wrong, are rushed, or are working from outdated information.

The same goes for holistic practitioners.

And just because someone is qualified, registered, or has a big following does not automatically mean what they’re saying is right for you.

It also doesn’t mean it’s wrong.
It just means you need to think.

Who is this advice for?
Does it apply to me?
What are the risks as well as the benefits?

Because even good advice is not one size fits all.

I’m less interested in which side you pick, and more interested in whether it’s actually right for you.

You don’t need to become an expert.
But having enough understanding to ask questions and sense check things matters.

Especially now, when information is everywhere.
Google, AI, social media… all of it can be helpful, and all of it can get things wrong too.

So it’s not about blind trust.
It’s about balance.
A bit of questioning.
And making informed decisions about your own health.

For me, it’s never been about choosing sides.
It’s about what is appropriate, safe, and relevant for the person in front of me.

Sometimes that’s medical.
Sometimes that’s lifestyle.
Most of the time, it’s both.

And if you want a good place to start with that bigger picture, my TLC Space session is exactly for that 🩷

“if it’s natural, it’s safe”… not always

I’m hyperthyroid with Graves, and honestly this is something I wish someone had just told me at the start.

Because like a lot of people, I looked at supplements thinking I was helping myself.

But some of them can actually interfere with your thyroid, your medication, or even your blood results… and no one really explains that clearly.

Even working in the NHS, I only picked a lot of this up from my own research.

So just a few things I wish I’d known sooner.

iodine
iodine in normal food is usually fine and needed
but a lot of “thyroid support” supplements contain extra iodine

and if you’re hyperthyroid, that can push your thyroid to make more hormone and make things worse

biotin
a lot of people take this for hair and nails

but it can interfere with thyroid blood tests and give false results
which can then affect how your levels are read and treated

immune boosting supplements
this one catches a lot of people out

with Graves, your immune system is already overactive
so “boosting” it more isn’t always helpful

lion’s mane and similar supplements
these are everywhere at the moment

they don’t directly mess with hormones, but they do affect the nervous system and immune system
which are both linked to hormone balance

so if you’ve got an autoimmune condition, it’s not always neutral

same idea with things like ashwagandha
it’s often taken for stress, but it can increase thyroid hormone levels in some people

and this is the bit I really want to say

I’ve worked with people who were told to take certain supplements and thought they were doing everything right

but when we actually looked at it properly, some of those things weren’t right for them at all

not because anyone was trying to do harm
just because advice is often given without the full picture

and that applies to everyone

even me

things change, guidance changes, and none of us ever have your full story

so it’s important you ask questions as well
double check things
and make sure your doctor or other professionals knows what you’re taking

sometimes it’s not about adding more

sometimes it’s about taking things out that are quietly getting in the way

curious if anyone else was ever told any of this… or did you find out yourself?

A lot of people get stuck in the gap between knowing what to do and actually being able to do it

They are functioning
They are coping
They may even look fine to everyone else

But something still feels off

They do not feel like themselves
What they have tried so far has only taken them so far
And deep down they know it is not just about needing more information

That is usually where deeper work starts to matter

I bring 23 years in healthcare, membership with the RSPH, and Belief Coding experience since 2022 alongside my coaching work

So although I am currently working towards an advanced practitioner level coaching accreditation, I am not new to this work

These are paid beta spaces offered at a reduced rate during this stage, which gives people the chance to experience this level of support at a lower investment

This work matters to me personally too

After grief and Graves’ disease, I know what it is like when life looks manageable on the outside but does not feel right underneath

That is why I offer TLC Space as a starting point

It is a one hour session where we get clear on what is actually going on, what you most want to move forward with, and what the real focus needs to be

Because if that part is unclear, it is a bit like putting a destination into the sat nav without really knowing where you are trying to get to

You can keep driving
But that does not mean you are heading in the right direction

If this feels relevant, comment or message me SPACE and I will message you more details

07/04/2026

A lot of people do not struggle to put themselves first
They struggle with what happens when they do

How many times have you had something going on in your life
and still felt like you could not take the time you needed

Not because you did not need it
But because you already knew what people might say

That kind of pressure gets under your skin

It teaches you to second guess yourself
override your needs
and stay longer than is good for you

We cannot always change the people around us
but we can loosen the grip of how much their judgement affects you

If this feels relevant, my TLC Space session is a gentle place to start

Answering a few questions that have been coming up about the menopause research 👇

🩷 You don’t need to come with a full story or lots of detail
We just ask you to identify one symptom you’d like to focus on

🩷 We’ll explore how that symptom feels for you and how it’s affecting your day to day life
That’s enough for us to work with

🩷 This is for women whether you’re on HRT or not
As long as symptoms are present, we work from where you are now

🩷 Sessions are delivered via Zoom

A few things people often ask…

🩷 “Do I need to talk through everything?”
No. This isn’t talk therapy. The process is structured and guided. You only share what’s relevant.

🩷 “What if I don’t fully understand why I feel like this?”
That’s completely fine. You don’t need to have the answers before you come.

🩷 “Is this about stopping menopause?”
No. Menopause itself is a natural stage of life that all women go through. What we’re looking at is why some women experience symptoms more intensely than others, and what may be contributing to that.
This isn’t about blame or doing anything “wrong”, it’s about understanding what else might be sitting underneath your experience.

🩷 “What if my symptoms feel physical?”
That’s often the case. We’re not replacing medical care, but looking at what may be contributing alongside it.

🩷 “Is one session enough to make a difference?”
From our first round, we saw really strong shifts from just one focused session. That’s why we’re continuing and expanding the research.

🩷 “Is this safe?”
Yes. Everything is guided and done at your pace within a structured process.

This is a focused, structured process that many people find surprisingly releasing, even within one session.

The data from our first round was really encouraging, and another journal has now shown interest in a second paper, which is why we’re expanding the study.

If you’d like more details, have a look at the previous post or drop me a comment or DM x

Are you in peri or menopause… and feel like you’ve slowly lost yourself a bit?

I remember being told everything was “fine”.

But I didn’t feel fine.

My body felt off
My anxiety was through the roof
I had brain fog so bad I genuinely questioned what was happening to me

And yet on paper… there was no clear answer.

That disconnect is something I see a lot in women going through peri and menopause too.

You’re functioning
You’re getting on with things
But underneath, something doesn’t feel right

We’re continuing our research into how Belief Coding®️ can support women through this stage of life, and we’re opening up more spaces to take part.

we seen just how much impact one session had on over 69 women

We’re now very close to publication , and another journal has showed interest

Which means we need more women.

PHASE 1 – Research Extension

• One focused session
• Working with one symptom
• Follow-up over 1 month

this is for anyone who hasn't already participated in the first round

PHASE 2 – Sustainability Study

• 3 sessions over 6 weeks
• Focused on up to three symptoms
• Follow-up over 6 months

This allows us to look at what shifts… and whether those changes actually last.

This may be for you if:

• you’ve been told everything is “normal” but you don’t feel it
• anxiety, poor sleep, overwhelm or brain fog have become your baseline
• you feel like you’ve adapted to how you feel, rather than feeling like yourself

Sessions are offered at a reduced research rate as part of the study.

If this feels like you, message or comment **RESEARCH** and we’ll talk you through the options.

At some point, it stops being about more information.

Because the issue usually isn’t knowledge.

It’s what’s getting in the way underneath.

I work with people who feel that gap.

❤️𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆’𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲.
❤️T𝗵𝗲𝘆’𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗱.
❤️B𝘂𝘁 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴.

Not because they’re not trying.

This isn’t about going back through everything that’s ever happened in life.

Sometimes that includes past experiences.
Other times it’s smaller, less obvious patterns.

I’m opening a small number of case study spaces for Advanced BCCR®️ as part of my advanced accreditation.

I’ve been accredited in BCCR®️ since 2023 and am a life, health and behaviour change coach, practitioner and mentor. 𝗜’𝗺 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗠𝗥𝗦𝗣𝗛 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗚𝗣𝗵𝗖 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱, and have seen consistent results with this work.

Alongside my background in pharmacy and health, I’ve also experienced my own challenges, including loss and developing Graves’ disease, which changed how I experienced my body and day to day life. That combination of lived experience and professional understanding shapes how I approach this work.

This isn’t limited to menopause or chronic illness, though. The work applies more broadly than that.
