A Life Rooted in Balance

Based between Portugal and Ireland, I’ve shaped a life that blends sunshine, nature, and deep family connection — a reflection of the balance I help women create for themselves.

Through Rise & Thrive, I guide women to feel empowered, informed, and connected to their bodies through every season of change.

My approach is grounded in warmth, resilience, and evidence-based care for women’s wellbeing.

My Story

Stack of hardcover books with a graduation cap on top, on a wooden surface.

My journey into women’s health began in my teens, when debilitating period pain disrupted everyday life.

In my twenties, I was finally diagnosed with endometriosis — a moment that brought both clarity and new challenges. From that moment, I became committed to understanding my body through nutrition, movement, and lifestyle choices that truly supported healing..

Around the same time, I completed a BA (Hons) in Social Care Practice, where I deepened my understanding of psychology, human behaviour, and the mind–body connection — insights that now shape my compassionate, whole-person approach to women’s health.

From Curiosity to Calling

After completing my studies, I went on to open a health and wellness store, where I supported many women looking for real solutions to their hormonal health, energy, and wellbeing.
I also continued my studies in nutrition and integrative health., deepening my understanding of how food and lifestyle can powerfully influence hormonal health.
Those interactions reinforced what I’d already seen — that women need informed, compassionate support throughout every stage of hormonal change.
This experience continues to guide my work today — helping women feel informed, supported, and empowered to rise and thrive.

A New Chapter

My thirties brought another profound chapter — a long and emotional journey with infertility.

After many years of IVF, our daughter was born in 2019 — a moment that changed everything. Not long after, we moved to Portugal to give her a childhood rooted in nature, sunshine, and sea air — a slower, more grounded way of life that continues to inspire my work today.
