About Helen

 

When you're on a GLP-1, you don’t need another expert telling you what to eat.

You need someone who knows how to walk beside you and who gets what it’s like to live this.

Because this isn't just about weight loss as you know it. 

It's about navigating changes in your body with a powerful  medicine.

 

Hi there! I'm Helen

 

I've helped hundreds of women rewrite their relationships with their bodies, their food and their future.  I still have a thank-you card from a patient who lost weight to support her fertility. It shows her holding her newborn. I’ll never forget it. 

 

I’ve spent 25+ years translating complex science into practical actions for people - ones that make sense to them and which get them to their goals.

 

  • Previous Dietitian (NHS and private practice)
  • Experienced trainer in metabolic health, (Type 2 Diabetes, CV disease, fatty liver)  and women’s health
  • ICF-accredited coach for behavioural change 
  • Leadership and team Coach (Corporate consultancy)
  • Specialist knowledge in GLP-1 medications (I trained professionals on the first two GLP-1s licensed in the UK)

 

Today, that all feeds into my book that blends biology, behaviours, and beliefs into a new path forward for women on GLP-1s.

 

But just as importantly - I’ve been on my own GLP-1 journey, too. Because, I'm human and I let my diet slide (I know!) leading to a scary combination of stubbornly high blood pressure and cholesterol.  It was the wake-up call. I couldn't take my health for granted.

 

So I get it.

The hope. The hesitation. The hunger for a better future. 

The need for that dopamine fix. 

And the anxiety about what happens next.

What really fuels my work

 

This isn't just a job for me, it's personal.

 

I know what it’s like to face big change with no safety net. After my marriage broke down, I became the sole breadwinner for my two young children - and navigated five redundancies in a row. I kept going, but it was hard, especially when an early menopause was thrown into the mix.

 

Looking back, I wish I’d had the support of a coach - someone to help me hear my own thoughts, cut through the fear, and trust my instincts. That’s what I offer now.

 

My children are in their twenties now - happy, thriving, independent - and I more time and freedom to enjoy life on my agenda!

 

Usually on two wheels.

 

I cycle around Buckinghamshire, Berkshire and the Cotswolds with friends, and I’ve toured through Slovenia, Hungary, Croatia, Austria… Planning next year’s trip as we speak.

 

I walk my rescue dog Sherlock every day - a joyful bundle of Spaniel, terrier, and total chaos.

My Mission

 

I’m a science-led coach with a heart

 

Trusting someone to share your questions, thoughts and fears with makes all the difference on your GLP-1 journey.  

 

When I started on mine, I was lucky  because of  experience. I soon realised that online advice, hasn't caught up with the evidence though.

 

Women are 80% of the 'out of pocket' market in the UK and are turning to online groups for information - which unfortunately is often full of misinformation and myths. And how can you tell what's true and what isn't?

 

If you’ve ever said:

  • “I know what to do - I just don’t trust myself to do it”
  • “I’ve lost the weight, but I still don’t feel in control”
  • “I'm freaking out about maintenance”

 

...then this is the book that changes everything.  Because unlike 

 

It explains why it was so difficult to lose weight before, how your GLP-1 is really making a difference and interprets the data from your perspective.

 

 It's about aha moments and insights which explain everything that you've been asking
