Hi, I’m Helen.

I’m an experienced nutritional speaker, coach and writer, who loves supporting people to change their relationship with food.

Known for loving Yorkshire tea, strawberries, pork pie, curry and real ale, I prefer my food without a side of guilt.  

I actively do not encourage people to be the best, or ideal, version of themselves. I have experienced many bumps along the road that have made me realise that you don’t need to be good, just good enough in any aspect of your life, and your diet is no exception.

Based in the Peak District, near Sheffield, my northern English upbringing in an entrepreneurial, neurodivergent family where ‘rules are made to be broken’ formed my down-to-earth, slightly rebellious character. This means that although my solutions are sensitive, they are delivered with gritty realism, not idealism. 

With an immense love of food and drink, as I’m tucking into a pork pie with a few pints of real ale, friends often remark ‘if only your clients could see you now!’ That’s the thing, I wish they could, I have nothing to hide. 

A healthy diet is about context. It’s about the mundane consistency of generally eating plenty of fruit and vegetables and a balance of carbs, protein and fats, and not judging yourself (or indeed others) when you deviate from that general plan. 

It’s how you respond to imperfection that matters. Do you respond to ‘imperfect’ food choices with guilt and shame, vowing to try harder, and restrict further, tomorrow? I very much believe that many people are in this ‘all or nothing’ mindset with their diet. 

My clients often think they have tried everything before and they are a lost cause, feel addicted to food and believe there is no way to change. But you really can have your cake without eating it all at once. It takes time, but it is possible to move past ‘imperfect’ food choices, enjoy your cake, and carry on with your generally healthy diet from the very next mouthful, as opposed to starting on Monday. 

With my approach, guilt is off the menu. I’ve seen many people find relief, flexibility and freedom in their diets when they never thought it would be possible.
