I am an independent woman, a partner, a daughter, a sister, a mother, an optimist and deliberate creator of my life and my health!
I am passionate about people. In my former life I was a Beauty Therapist. In this career I found that I made people feel comfortable enough, that they would open up to me and ask questions about their health issues. Of course as a Beauty Therapist I was not qualified to give advice on such things; however my curiosity about such things grew, and I found myself studying Naturopathy. With the early birth of my daughter (11 weeks early!) my studies were cut short to care for my tiny bundle of joy (all 2 pounds of her!). That was 16 years ago! I found myself wondering if I would ever venture back to my studies and become a Naturopath? Along the way utilising the knowledge I had gained from my early studies, always aiming to live what I had been taught. In between time I also gained a qualification in Laboratory Techniques - Pathology Testing; this qualification allows me a very well rounded knowledge of the human body and the conditions that afflict it.
