About me
Hi I'm Georgie, and ever since my late teens I have been interested in nutrition, food and it's effects on the body. Even after numerous attempts down different career paths, something has always drawn me back to health and food. After tackling my own health struggles over the years, it not only became my passion to understand more, but to help others do so too.
My Story
I come from a family of foodies, so food has always been a passion of mine and played a huge part in my life. So in 2014 when I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis I was devastated as I struggled to eat anything without being in pain. This pushed me into my first move within the nutrition space, as I seeked answers for my diagnosis. I couldn't quite accept that one minute I was fine, and the next I had a chronic condition, with a only a future of working my way through a list of medications. I quit my sales job and went on to complete the Nutrition in Practice accreditation at Leiths School of Food & Wine. I fell head over heels with everything we covered and decided to enrol myself onto the Leiths Culinary Diploma to train as a chef.
This led me to an exciting 8 years of food styling, recipe development, & catering in exotic locations like private islands and castles, aswel as learning a lot about food, from sourdough, patisserie, supper clubs & restaurant work. My goal was to open my own deli that served delicious, healthy food.
2021 I got diagnosed with a second condition: Postprandial (Reactive) Hypoglycemia. The irony that both of my health conditions are influenced by food and yet I was a chef, and food was/still is my life. This is when I knew I wanted to take my studying further and signed up to do the Health Coach Diploma at the College of Naturopathic Medicine. This finally felt like the missing piece of the puzzle for the career that I have always wanted to shape for myself.
So if you have ever felt unheard, misunderstood or frightened about your health, I completely understand. I’ve been there and really do know what it feels like. This is why I am so passionate about helping others, through educating, motivating and support, to help them live the healthiest & most enjoyable lives they can.
