For more than 15 years now, I have been helping individuals to better understand their body and show them how nutrition can have a real impact on their daily life. Going further I also collaborate with Corporation to either improve their nutrition strategy or develop the staff wellness.
If you are curious to know how I can support you in achieving your goal, let’s have a quick chat.
I’m excited to be speaking at the Equity in Menopause Festival, organised by Black Female Doctors UK and You and Me_nopause, on World Menopause Day, Friday, 18th October 2024, from 11:00 am to 8:00 pm at Holland House, London. This groundbreaking event will focus on reaching out to marginalised communities - Women of Colour, LGBTQ+ individuals, those with disabilities, migrant women, and more - who are often overlooked during discussions around menopause.
The festival will include engaging panel discussions, workshops, films, stalls, activities, relaxation, arts and entertainment creating a supportive and educational space for all. If you’re passionate about addressing the inequalities in menopause care, come join us for a day of learning, connecting, celebrating and advocating for change!

Yesterday was Mental Health Awareness Day, and it’s important to highlight something that’s often overlooked: the profound impact hormonal fluctuations during perimenopause can have on mental wellbeing.
As a Women’s Health Dietitian, I’ve seen firsthand how deeply connected the mind and body are. While I wrote Food for Menopause primarily from a professional standpoint, the section on “filling your bucket” allowed me to draw from my own personal journey and struggles, making it one of the most heartfelt parts of the book for me.
I lost my beloved mama and my father figure 15 months apart from each other all while doing a PhD. It left me emotionally drained, physically exhausted, and feeling like a shadow of myself. While I tried to keep a brave face, I wrestled with a deep, heavy grief that words could hardly capture.
For me, this period felt like wading through treacle. But amidst the darkness, I slowly learned the importance of small, simple acts of self-care: feeling the warmth of the sun on my skin, journaling, lighting a candle, offering a (or many!) desperate prayer, or just taking a nap. These small steps became lifelines that over time – have allowed to get my va-va-voom back.
In my work with women navigating perimenopause, many describe similar feelings of overwhelm, sadness, and emotional exhaustion. I wanted to honour these experiences in Food for Menopause, particularly in Chapter 3, where I talk about how to keep your bucket filled during the menopause transition.
There’s no one-size-fits-all solution but building a personal toolkit of practices that nourish your mental wellbeing is essential.
Every day should be a day we feel safe to talk about what’s going on inside, without judgment. If you’re feeling drained, overwhelmed, or struggling, know that you are not alone. Prioritize filling your bucket—whatever that looks like for you. 💛
