Why I work supporting women postpartum?
I am a Nutritional Therapist (Dip.NUT w/ Distinction), Psychology graduate (BSc & MSc), and Yoga Instructor—but above all, I am a mother of two. My own journey through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum has been both empowering and challenging, shaped by moments of support but also by disconnection and loneliness.
I understand firsthand the profound physical and psychological transformations that come with motherhood—the changes in identity, the shift in relationships, and the internal struggle of balancing self-care with the demands of a new baby. All this while navigating the deep physiological shifts that underpin the postpartum period.
What I also see, time and time again, is how little support there is for women after birth. Many mothers, often due to financial or cultural pressures, find themselves “mummying” 24/7—without a village to lean on. This can quickly spiral into isolation, exhaustion, and take a toll on their mental and physical health.
I feel called to this work: to witness, to hold space, to ground, and to help women reclaim balance in the dissonance of life after birth.
