Originally from Birmingham, my husband and I moved to Gnosall in 2016 to raise a family.

It was of no surprise that we struggled to conceive and suffered the heartbreak of miscarriages as “women’s problems” run through the generations of my family. I was told that my fertility was very poor and that my only realistic hope to have a baby was IVF. We reluctantly agreed to one round of IVF, but I was also keen to explore other non-invasive options and I’d always been interested in natural alternatives.

I connected with natural therapists, read lots of interesting research, made radical changes to my nutrition and I embraced natural alternatives. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and I felt healthier, grounded and more empowered than ever before.

I changed my diet, skincare and beauty regime to prioritise organic and naturally made produce and products wherever possible. In non-organic or mass grown / produced items, it is widely known that harmful pesticides, antibiotics, hormones and other unwanted chemicals enter the food chain or end products which is very damaging to fertility and general health.

As well as moving to organic, I removed synthetic fragrance from my home and beauty regime, it was then that I discovered essential oils and their fascinating healing properties.

Neal’s Yard Remedies became a firm family favourite. With their natural, organic and ethically sourced products these replaced our mass-produced and synthetic beauty products. We’ve never looked back.

Defying medical odds, the natural approach worked!!! We conceived naturally, just days before embarking on the first round of IVF. I had a very healthy pregnancy and welcomed our son in 2018.

When I was pregnant and pondering the challenge of a demanding job in the corporate world and motherhood, I knew I needed a change, a different way of life. I re-trained in Aromatherapy in 2018 whilst on maternity leave with my baby son and have practiced since. My love and intrigue of holistic therapies continues and I’m very passionate about women’s health. I love learning and growing and most importantly using knowledge to create impactful treatments for my clients.
