Guiding you through every season

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. These insights now shape my compassionate, whole person approach to women’s health.

From curiosity to calling

Assorted spices in small bowls and on a surface, including turmeric, chili powder, sesame seeds, flax seeds, and other dried herbs and seeds.

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.
