Tell us about yourself
I am an award-winning dietitian with a strong background in human physiology and nutrition biochemistry. I have extensive experience in multiple nutrition settings on an international level. I am passionate about translating nutrition science into easy-to-digest advice and the provision of accessible yet personalised health for all. My personal interests are in performance nutrition, women’s health, healthy ageing, sustainable nutrition, and making the world a better place. My mission is to help as many people as possible to live their best life!
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I cannot single out one particular achievement. Life is a journey. I am proud of how far I have come, and I am embracing the present and looking forward to what the future has in store. My best days are ahead of me!
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
As health professionals, we are not trained to have a business mindset. I have been a freelance Nutrition consultant for ten years now. It has been a steep learning curve.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Stay focused on your journey. It is easy to start comparing yourself, yet your race is your race. Learn to run your race well.
- Be consistent in the small things and keep doing those things well - particularly when the going gets tough.
- Stay open. Open to opportunities. Open to learning. Open to knowing when you need some time out to fill up your tank.
