My journey in health and wellness started with my own transformation. I experienced firsthand what can happen when you have the right nutrition, support and people around you — and it changed so much more than how I looked. It changed how I felt, my energy, my confidence and ultimately the direction of my life.

For more than a decade, I’ve had the opportunity to help others create transformations of their own. I’ve coached people toward their health and weight-loss goals, built wellness communities and, today, I’m the founder of Heart & Soul Nutrition in Hull — a place built around making healthy living feel positive, supportive and achievable.

But one of the things I love most is helping other people discover that they can do this too. You don’t need to come from a health or fitness background or have everything figured out before you start. I believe great coaches are simply people who care about others, are willing to learn and have a genuine desire to make a difference.

Becoming a Wellness Coach gave me the opportunity to turn something I was passionate about into something much bigger. Now I get to help other people build their confidence, develop their skills and create something of their own — while making a positive impact in the lives of people around them.
