I met my Dad in Taupo earlier this week for an incredible few days together to celebrate his 68th birthday. 🤩🥳

One of the best things (along with love and time) my Dad has ever given me is him making his own health a priority. So he could be active and present with us kids when we were young, and now, many years later, that hasn’t changed as his state of health and therefore quality of life are still amazing. Physically strong and healthy with a sharp mind at 68, this I am truely grateful for. 🥰

Currently, 80% of my clients are athletes, sports nutrition and those who already eat well but for those out there who need this reminder, this is for you. 🫶

🍫🥞Chocolate Protein Pancakes.
A fav of mine I’m adding to my list of recipes for my clients.

When I started my business many years ago, I spent every single weekend creating new base recipes for my clients.

Each check in, clients have the option of choosing 4 new recipes from the list which I then adjust and calculate each one to fit into their personalised plans, along with any plan adjustments.

My aim has always been to give my clients variety as this makes it long term sustainable, a way of life. And knowing each recipe is calculated to their specific dietary requirements means they’re always going to reach their goals. All while eating delicious food! 😍

Comment recipe if you’d like the details for this base pancake recipe. ❤️

A lovely client gifted me a wonderful night away. 😍

I couldn’t be happier for this client and her husband, and, she’s such a pleasure to work with! 🥰

Having spent the first 18 years of my life on a dairy farm, I’ve always felt most at home in nature and the outdoors. 🌳🌺

Morning beach walk and swim, nourishing food, yoga, nature, stillness, reading and an amazing night’s sleep – the perfect little getaway and reset for my CNS! 🙏 So grateful, THANK YOU Rach & Brendan. 🙏🥰

Life lately (and for the past decades) - nutrition, training, Endo bellies, hikes/nature and my boys 🐶🐶🥰

The almond butter is this snack is 380 calories, making it a 470 calorie snack with the rice thins. It was measured out to show a client and educate her on the caloric values in foods. Unless you have that awareness, nuts butters (and snacks as you need to bring insulin down) are not the best option for those trying to reduce body fat 😊

“A walk in nature walks the soul back home.” – Mary Davis

Popped up to The Pinnacles last night after work. A surreal few hours at summit for sunset and then back home. Walking down in the darkness of the night with only my headlamp was such a peaceful and serene experience, simultaneously deep in thought with a clear and free mind.

Arriving back at my car around 10pm I felt calm, grounded and reminded again of what and who truly matters in life. 🥰

I know so many of you love hiking and being in nature too, I love hearing your favourite hikes/places and stories! 🙏🫶

If I had kids they’d get things like these as treats. Real food to make them feel amazing. A great one for kids, both the fur and human kinds! 🐶🐶👧🧒

A nourished body and mind is a calm, patient, strong, reliable, logical, happy, driven and resilient one. 🙏💪

A malnourished body and mind is a weak, reactive, unmotivated, impatient, moody, unpredictable and chaotic one. 😫😴

What determines how efficiently YOUR body converts food into energy?

“You eat a lot” – a standard comment from family/friends and even strangers over the years. 😅

Although I’ve never intentionally tracked my caloric intake, I accurately know I’ve consistently eaten 3200-4500 calories per day for years.

This lunch is approx. 780 calories and a good example of why I never post my exact meals in terms of calories, macros, micros, portions etc, as we all have completely different dietary requirements. This largely comes down to how efficient your body is at converting food into energy, your “metabolism”.

Essentially, the more efficient your metabolism is, the more calories you can eat without negatively impacting health markers and/or gaining body fat.

🎉 CLIENT SPOTLIGHT 🎉

The first slide is an enquiry from a now current client back in 2018. Focussed solely on losing weight, she literally got a nutrition plan from me, and I never heard from her again.

Until October 2025 when she sent another enquiry (second slide). Completely different mindset, ready to make long term changes to her health and quality of life. 👏🤩

You can see the stark contrast between her goals/focus in those years. Since October we’ve had fortnightly check ins and she’s like a sponge, absorbing all I teach her, both of which are key for forming new habits and ensuring long term changes.

The third slide is an email from her yesterday, shared with her permission of course. Although one of her goals was always to reduce fat, it was only when she started fueling her body to support biochemical reactions and improve her metabolic health, that lipolysis was activated and she saw fat loss. Her size/weight has never really been mentioned in her sessions, that’s just been an awesome byproduct of trusting and enjoying the process of working with a professional.

You can have the world’s best nutrition plan but without the support, education and accountability especially in the initial stages, it’s ridiculous to expect long term changes.

This client’s mindset is amazing; she’s always so happy, positive and willing to learn and I’m beyond proud of her. 👏👏 It’s such a pleasure and honour work with her! ❤️
