October is ADHD Awareness Month
And I’m marking it with something special: a free online workshop on ADHD & nutrition. 💛

Because ADHD isn’t just in the head.
Your gut, your food, and your daily habits can have a huge impact on focus, mood, and energy.

Expect to:
✅ Understand the connection between nutrition and ADHD
✅ Reflect on your current health, symptoms, diet, and lifestyle
✅ Learn practical, easy-to-implement dietary changes
✅ Leave with a personalised action plan

👉 Perfect if you live with ADHD (diagnosed or not), often feel drained or distracted, and want tools that are practical not overwhelming.

📅 Happening on the 21st October at 6pm online and it’s free to join!
DM me to save your spot (limited to 10 spaces)

💛 Let’s make ADHD feel a little lighter, together.

The type of nutritionist I am (and am not)

I’ll be honest with you…
I don’t have the “perfect weight.”
I don’t wear the “right” clothes.
I’m not an influencer.
I’m not here to create urgency, guilt, or pressure.
And I’m definitely not perfect.

What I am is human.
💛 Empathetic.
💛 Ready to meet you exactly where you are, without judgment.
💛 Someone who deeply understands how hard it can feel to make changes when you’re tired, stressed, or overwhelmed.
💛 Authentic — I show up as me, not as an unrealistic image of “health.”
💛 Focused on supporting you — your gut, your mind, your energy, your life.

Because nutrition isn’t about rules, perfection, or chasing an ideal.
It’s about finding balance that actually works for you.

So if you’ve ever felt like you don’t fit the “health mould,” know this: neither do I.
And that’s exactly why I do what I do. 🌿

🇵🇹

O tipo de nutricionista que sou (e que não sou)

Vou ser honesta contigo…
Eu não tenho o “peso ideal.”
Não uso a roupa “certa.”
Não sou influencer.
Não estou aqui para criar urgência, culpa ou pressão.
E definitivamente não sou perfeita.

O que eu sou é humana.
💛 Empática.
💛 Pronta para te encontrar exatamente onde estás, sem julgamentos.
💛 Alguém que entende bem como pode ser difícil fazer mudanças quando estás cansado/a, stressado/a ou sobrecarregado/a.
💛 Autêntica — apareço como eu sou, não como uma imagem irreal de “saúde.”
💛 Focada em apoiar-te — o teu intestino, a tua mente, a tua energia, a tua vida.

Porque nutrição não é sobre regras, perfeição ou perseguir um ideal.
É sobre encontrar o equilíbrio que realmente funciona para ti.

Se alguma vez sentiste que não encaixas no “molde da saúde,” f**a a saber: eu também não.
E é exatamente por isso que faço o que faço. 🌿

When it comes to calming foods, we usually hear about salmon, spinach, and chamomile tea. But what about the quiet ones? The tiny toppers that hide in your larder and pack a secret punch?

Here are 5 hidden heroes that can calm your mind + feed your gut:

🥄 Pumpkin seeds → rich in magnesium + zinc (sprinkle everywhere).
🌊 Seaweed → minerals + prebiotic fibre (crispy snack win).
🌱 Tahini → tryptophan for serotonin (spread on toast or whisk into dressings).
🍫 Cacao nibs → crunchy magnesium boost (top your yoghurt).
🌿 Fresh herbs → lemon balm & parsley as micro-calmers (more than garnish!).

Small changes, big calm. Which one could you sneak into your meals this week?

🇵🇹

Quando falamos em alimentos calmantes, quase sempre ouvimos falar de salmão, espinafres e chá de camomila.
Mas… e os discretos? Aqueles pequenos aliados que se escondem na despensa e têm um poder secreto? 

Aqui estão os 5 heróis escondidos que podem acalmar a mente + nutrir o intestino:

🥄 Sementes de abóbora → magnésio + zinco (polvilha em tudo).
🌊 Algas → minerais + fibra prebiótica (snack crocante perfeito).
🌱 Tahini → triptofano para serotonina (na torrada ou em molhos).
🍫 Pepitas de cacau → crocante + magnésio (ótimos no iogurte).
🌿 Ervas frescas → erva-cidreira & salsa como micro-calmantes (mais do que enfeite!).

Pequenas mudanças, grande calma. Qual destes heróis vais incluir nas tuas refeições esta semana?

🇬🇧

Do you know what really makes you happy? 💛
Not just the “big life goals,” but the little things, the walk on the beach, the quiet coffee, the laugh with a friend.

Now ask yourself: are you doing it enough?
And maybe even more importantly: are you allowing yourself to enjoy it fully, without guilt or rushing to the next thing?

Contentment isn’t laziness or indulgence. It’s a vital part of wellbeing. 🌿
When we give space to joy, whether it’s 5 minutes of calm or a whole afternoon of laughter, our body responds. Stress lowers, anxiety softens, digestion improves, and life feels lighter.

✨ This week, I challenge you: find one small thing that brings you joy, and really lean into it. Your mind and body will thank you.

🇵🇹

Sabes o que realmente te faz feliz? 💛
Não só os “grandes objetivos de vida”, mas também as pequenas coisas, um passeio na praia, um café tranquilo, uma gargalhada com um amigo.

Agora pergunta a ti mesmo: estás a fazer isso com frequência suficiente?
E talvez ainda mais importante: estás a permitir-te saborear esse momento, sem culpa e sem pressa para a próxima tarefa?

Estar contente não é preguiça nem indulgência. É uma parte essencial do nosso bem-estar. 🌿
Quando damos espaço à alegria, seja 5 minutos de calma ou uma tarde inteira de risos, o corpo responde. O stress diminui, a ansiedade suaviza, a digestão melhora e a vida f**a mais leve.

✨ O meu desafio para ti esta semana: encontra uma pequena coisa que te dê alegria e vive-a plenamente. A tua mente e o teu corpo vão agradecer.

🇬🇧

Sometimes life pulls you away, and that’s okay. 💛
I’ve been quieter here lately, but my passion for helping you feel better in your gut, your mind, and your energy hasn’t gone anywhere.

Here are 5 gentle reminders for your gut & your mind:
✨ You don’t have to “fix” everything at once.
✨ Rest and digestion go hand in hand — slowing down helps both.
✨ No single food will make or break your gut health.
✨ Your feelings are valid. Stress shows up in the body too.
✨ Small, consistent changes beat big, overwhelming overhauls.

If you’ve been feeling out of sync with your gut, your mood, or your energy, you’re not alone. My DMs are always open. 💛

🇵🇹

Às vezes a vida afasta-nos um pouco, e está tudo bem. 💛
Tenho estado mais silenciosa por aqui, mas a minha paixão por ajudar-te a sentires-te melhor com o teu intestino, a tua mente e a tua energia continua a mesma.

Aqui f**am 5 lembretes gentis para o teu intestino & a tua mente:
✨ Não tens de “consertar” tudo de uma vez.
✨ Descanso e digestão andam de mãos dadas — abrandar ajuda em ambos.
✨ Nenhum alimento isolado vai fazer ou desfazer a tua saúde intestinal.
✨ Os teus sentimentos são válidos. O stress também se manifesta no corpo.
✨ Pequenas mudanças consistentes valem mais do que grandes mudanças avassaladoras.

Se te tens sentido desconectado/a do teu intestino, humor ou energia, não estás sozinho/a. A minha DM está sempre aberta. 💛

“Is she the right nutritionist for me?”

It’s completely normal to ask yourself that, especially if you’ve tried everything and still don’t feel like yourself.

Here’s the truth: If you feel out of sync with your gut, your mood, or your energy… we can probably do something beautiful together.

In this post, I’m sharing the kinds of people I love to support. Let me know if you see yourself in any of them.

Still unsure? My DMs are always open. 💌

And if you know someone who might need this kind of support, feel free to share the post. I’d love to help them feel better too.

🇵🇹

“Será que ela é a nutricionista certa para mim?”

É completamente normal fazeres-te essa pergunta, sobretudo se já experimentaste tudo e continuas sem te sentires tu própri@.

A verdade? Se te sentes desconectad@ do teu intestino, humor ou energia… provavelmente conseguimos fazer algo bonito junt@s.

Neste post, partilho os tipos de pessoas que mais gosto de acompanhar. Diz-me se te identif**as com algum deles.

Ainda com dúvidas? Estou sempre por aqui para conversar. 💌

E se conheceres alguém que precise deste tipo de apoio, partilha este post, eu adorava ajudar essa pessoa a sentir-se melhor também.

🇬🇧
For a long time, I thought nutrition had to be strict, serious, and only about food.

But the truth is:
The gut is connected to everything (our mind, stress, sleep, emotions).
Bloating is common, yes but not “normal.”
And healing doesn’t have to mean restriction. It can be soft. Joyful. Chocolate-friendly.

I share this because if you’ve ever felt confused, ashamed, or exhausted by health advice... I’ve been there too.

And now? I help people like you feel better, not just by “eating right” but by finally learning how to listen to their gut (and trust it).

💌 Want support? DM me “GUT” and I’ll tell you how I can help.

🇵🇹
Durante muito tempo, achei que nutrição tinha de ser rígida, séria, e só sobre comida.

Mas a verdade é que:
O intestino está ligado a tudo (mente, stress, sono, emoções).
O inchaço é comum, sim, mas não é “normal.”
E o processo de cura pode ser leve. Prazeroso. Pode incluir chocolate.

Partilho isto porque também já me senti confusa, cansada e cheia de vergonha por não conseguir “fazer tudo certo”.

E agora? Ajudo pessoas como tu a sentirem-se melhor não só através da comida, mas aprendendo a ouvir o seu corpo (e confiar nele).

💌 Precisas de apoio? Envia mensagem com a palavra “GUT”.

🇬🇧
Let me tell you what really matters in my work.
Not just gut health. Not just brains.
But how I help you feel better and why.

🧡 These are the values that guide every session, every message, every choice I make in this business and also in my personal life.
If you’re looking for someone who listens, empowers, and simplifies, I’m so glad you’re here.

✨ Tell me what are the values that matter to you when it comes to your health?

🇵🇹
Deixa-me contar-te o que realmente importa no meu trabalho.
Não é só o intestino. Nem só o cérebro.
É como te ajudo a sentires-te melhor e porquê.

🧡 Estes são os valores que guiam cada consulta, cada mensagem, cada escolha que faço neste negócio e também na minha vida pessoal.
Se procuras alguém que ouve, empodera e simplif**a, fico mesmo feliz por estares aqui.

✨ E para ti? Quais são os valores mais importantes quando se trata da tua saúde?

🇬🇧 Is it instinct… or your gut trying to say something?
Sometimes the signals we brush off like tiredness, foggy brain, low mood, are your gut’s way of asking for help.
👉 Slide to learn about the 5 gut signs you shouldn’t ignore.

💬 Which one resonates most with you?

Want support decoding the signs?
DM me “GUT” and I’ll tell you how I can help!

🇵🇹 Será instinto… ou o teu intestino a tentar dizer alguma coisa?
Às vezes, os sinais que ignoramos como cansaço, mente nublada, mau humor, são o intestino a pedir ajuda.
👉 Desliza pelos slides para f**ares a conhecer os 5 sinais que não deves ignorar.

💬 Com qual te identif**as mais?

Envia-me uma mensagem com a palavra “GUT” e explico como te posso apoiar!

Your gut is dramatic, but it’s not the problem.
It’s the messenger.

Ever felt butterflies, random bloating, weird fatigue, or brain fog that comes out of nowhere?
That’s not “just life.”
That’s your gut waving a giant flag at your brain going:
“HELP ME I’M NOT OK 😭”

The gut and brain are in constant convo and when the gut’s struggling, your mood, energy, focus, and even stress levels feel it.

The good news?
You don’t need a total life overhaul. You need to start listening and making small shifts that calm the chaos.
Think: food, sleep, hydration, movement, and a nervous system that isn’t stuck in panic mode.

✨ If you’re ready to decode the drama and support your gut-brain connection, I’ve got you.

Send me a DM to work with me!

Big news: I’ve got more guts now 😉

I started my nutrition business focusing on ADHD because I get what it’s like to have a busy mind in a busy world.

But the more I learned, the more I realised something powerful:
So many of the struggles we face with focus, mood, anxiety, and energy?
👉 They start in the gut.

That’s why I’m expanding my work to focus on gut-brain health, helping you support your mind by healing your gut.

Still me. Still here for neurodivergent minds.
But now with a broader (and bolder) mission.

✨ Ready to heal your gut and fire up your brain? Let’s do this together.
