About Kate
My mum passed away when I was five and little did I know then how that would impact my life in so many ways. It showed up mainly as anxiety which then led to my first panic attack while still at University.
Looking back now, I can see how much unresolved emotion my body was holding onto. This was when I experienced my first taste of naturopathic health with the discovery of Dr Bach’s flower remedies.
In my twenties when I began building a successful career in the fashion industry. From the outside, everything looked fine. But underneath, I felt anxious a lot of the time. Health anxiety became a constant cycle into my thirties, alongside migraines, digestive issues, stress and the pressure I’d put on myself to keep everything together. I became very good at just keeping going. Like many of us, I prioritised everyone else’s needs above my own. I relied on convenience habits, overworked, people-pleased and never stopped to think what I actually needed.
My deeper journey into holistic health came after experiencing fertility struggles and miscarriages, I found myself searching for answers beyond what conventional approaches could offer but didn’t work. I began exploring nutrition, lifestyle medicine, nervous system regulation and holistic wellbeing.
For the first time, I started listening to my body instead of fighting against it.
What began as a personal search for healing became a passion for understanding how small, consistent changes can create meaningful shifts in how we feel physically, mentally and emotionally.
Today, I’m an NHS accredited Holistic Health Coach,Wellbeing Coach and Indian Head Massage Therapist alongside a career spanning more than 25 years in the fashion industry.
While my relationship with health and wellbeing looks very different to how it once did, I’m still learning, adapting and navigating life’s challenges like everyone else.
What my own experiences have taught me, and has had a big influence in the way the way that I work, is that when we really pay attention to our wellbeing and invest in ourselves, it can create profound and lasting change. It has the power to reshape habits, strengthen both body and mind, and influence how we show up in every area of our life.
I believe in the power of small steps, practical support and learning to reconnect with your body. Not through perfection or stressful, rigid routines, but through simple changes that work within the reality of every client and their everyday life.
Learning how to pause, listen in and find ways to support ourselves through constant change in this current world is a necessity.
