Hi, I’m Shona, a nutritional therapist and someone who’s been exactly where you are.
Motherhood doesn’t come with an instruction manual, especially not for what your body needs at each stage. One minute you’re growing a precious human, the next you’re running on almost no sleep, and a few years later you’re still putting everyone else’s needs before your own.
I use a functional medicine approach, which means no quick fixes or generic food lists!
I look at what’s going on for you and use a 360 approach. This includes focusing on a range of areas such as gut health, hormones, energy and stress. I build a plan around what your body genuinely needs, not a template.
And because I’m a mum of three little ones myself, this isn’t theory for me. I’ve lived, and am currently living, every stage I support women through.

My Approach
I adopt a functional medicine way of working which is a personalised approach to health that looks at you as a whole person, not just individual symptoms.
Rather than viewing nutrition, lifestyle, sleep, stress, hormones and health history in isolation, functional medicine considers how these different areas may interact and influence your overall wellbeing.
My approach begins by taking the time to understand you – your health history, current symptoms, eating patterns, lifestyle, life stage and individual needs. Where appropriate, this may also include reviewing relevant medical history, blood results or other clinical information alongside your wider healthcare team.
From there, we work together to identify the areas where nutrition and lifestyle changes could make a meaningful difference. Recommendations are personalised, practical and grounded in evidence.
For women and mothers in particular, this means looking beyond a single concern to consider the bigger picture focusing on nutritional status; energy levels and digestive health; metabolic health, stress, sleep and the changing nutritional demands of different phases and stages of life.
The aim isn’t perfection or restrictive eating. It’s to help you understand your body, nourish it well and build sustainable habits that support your health for the long term.
You don’t have to figure this out on your own.
