My Story

My health journey began when I was 13. I struggled with bladder infections, gut issues, anxiety, tooth infections, I felt like there was always something and I over-analysed my health constantly. 

Then one day as I was lying in bed, curled around a hot water bottle feeling feint and sick from severe period pain I suddenly realised that despite the years of overanalysing my health I had never once questioned my cycle. I had grown up in a world where it is just expected and normalised that periods are difficult and that we, as women should just get on with it and not complain. 

I suddenly realised how mad that was and I began to delve into the world of Women’s Health and discovered that every month we have a direct indictor of how our health has been that month.

Months when I wasn’t taking care of myself I got a bad period, when I was, it was easy. I used the symptoms and signs of my body, combined with hours of research to fine-tune my period, my cycle and with it came my health.

I had finally stopped just surviving and felt like I was thriving. 

Once I had opened the jar of worms it seemed everyone had a story to tell of pain, irregularity, infertility, PMS, PMDD, and with it came stories of other health issues. At first they seemed unlinked but what I quickly learnt was that a difficult period is a sign of imbalance and if there is imbalance in the cycle, there will be imbalance elsewhere in the body.

I knew I had found my calling and that by supporting women with their period health, I would also be supporting women towards feeling radiant in themselves.
