What I particularly love about being a holistic nutritionist is encouraging others to feel empowered to make informed nutritional decisions encompassing the mind, body, and soul. It’s easy to forget about this powerful trifecta when our everyday lives become so busy, but that’s when it matters even more.

I have always been conscious of my own healing journey, dealing with severe health challenges in childhood, mainly affecting the lungs. As a sick child left largely to her own devices, I was able to master the ability to drop into deep meditative states and eventually, instead of struggling for breath, become quiet and peaceful. Not being able to join in with many games and sports, particularly in the cold, English winters, gave me the opportunity to sit on the sidelines and observe, which is something that I attribute now to my ability to meditate and ask big-picture questions…

We were not taught about sexuality as a crucial part of being human or about how to navigate sexual relationships, including consent and how to control if/when we got pregnant…
