what they’re saying
Kind words from my clients
” Jen offered a safe space to talk through my challenges and goals. We were able to work through these changes, one step at a time so they have become permanent. Without Jen I would still be struggling with insomnia and rushing for fast foods to feed the family. The power of one person can not be underestimated. Jen is a fantastic listener who can hear what you are really saying. The programme was so valuable to support my personal goals and sustain them over the long term. Our sessions were all online due to covid restrictions, but that worked so well to fit into my schedule. Jen is a warm, caring and honest person. She has a calm and supportive manner whilst encouraging and motivating to meet the challenges to change. She very much creates a culture of team work where you are supported to do this together not alone. Since the programme ended, I have maintained a healthy balance and my sleep has been amazing. I truly believe sometimes it takes an outside view to show you what you already know deep down. Often we are searching for permission to change and by having this support of Jen in this programme, I have become more confident in embracing change and not being stuck in the routine which can sometimes sweep you up. A fresh perspective is extremely powerful to creating new beginnings. 100% recommended this programme. We all need a little help and support at times. Jen offers more than a little help, this programme explores the true reasons why something isn’t quite working and Jen offers a team approach to creating solutions which are sustainable for the future. If you want support to improve your health and well-being then join the programme as Jen will guide you through this, step by step. “

3-month health coaching programme“I felt that I was really struggling to balance work, family life, and me time whilst also trying to work on becoming consistent with healthier eating & exercising. I think my biggest frustration was knowing where to start & how to manage & my time to make positive changes become more habitual. Jennifer helped me not to feel overwhelmed or feel that things weren’t achievable. I have really begun to properly prioritise my own health & wellbeing. Making small changes has allowed them to become habits rather than things that get forgotten about. The sessions really helped me to reflect on what was working for me & what was holding me back. I feel more in control of my mindset, balancing work & home life, & feel more able to make conscious decisions around boundaries & making time for myself. I feel like I have been able to change my whole mindset & approach to areas in my life that I have struggled with in the past. The programme is supportive & challenging & the way things are broken down makes it much more achievable. Jennifer is supportive, positive, encouraging and enthusiastic. She was able to help me unpick what was going on for me in a way that didn’t make it feel overwhelming. It can be really uncomfortable to really self evaluate & reflect on areas you struggle with. Jennifer creates such a positive, safe, welcoming space during sessions that allows you to really get to the root of where the challenges & barriers are coming from & helps you to find a positive more achievable approach to making changes. Her kindness & empathy was hugely reassuring & motivating.”

3-month health coaching programme” I had been so busy looking after others that I had forgotten to look after myself. I wanted to re-find me, I knew I was still the fun person I remembered and had just become overwhelmed by everyday things. Trying to fit everything in and be everything to everyone had led to bad anxiety, feeling short tempered and panic attacks. I knew things had to change, but I wasn’t sure where to start. This is where Jennifer was brilliant. She listened and was able to make sense of my stream of words, which before this point trying to work it all out had seemed impossible. Her expertise was invaluable here and helped guide and support me to identify what I wanted. She was so encouraging and she listened (I am forever grateful). She was also available if I had any questions or needed a vent or encouragement in between sessions. She never made me feel rushed or like I was making anything other than progress – even on days when I felt like I was going backwards. Years of not taking care of myself had caught up with me and I now feel that weight lifting. It’s not all gone but it’s very different now and I know when things don’t feel right I can make positive changes to manage it. I feel more confident in myself and what I can manage and I now believe I will get back to the confidence I had before. I would recommend this programme to anyone and everyone. Whether you want to change something big or small, or are just a bit lost Jennifer can help you. We covered nutrition, meditation, affirmations, exercise, habits, routine, journaling and so much more. Take that first step in looking after you. “

6-month programme” I joined the programme because I wanted to overcome the barriers holding me back from making lifestyle changes and I felt lost with how I could do this. It is a great way of setting individualised goals that can turn your life around and making changes that you enjoy and embrace for the future without trying to make too many, too quickly. It was very personalised, at my pace, and I felt very comfortable all the way through and never felt judged. Jen was warm, very well informed, and very receptive to my needs as an individual. She listened to me and picked up on the things I was struggling with. She always helped me find a solution. I had such a positive experience and my children noticed the changes in me for the better!”

3-month programme” Thank you so much Jennifer! Initially I was very unsure how health coaching would help me after years battling stress and weight gain, my total confidence was lost due to many factors. With Jennifer’s help, chats, handouts, and lots of information she helped me more than I could have hoped for. I have lost over 23lb, now have confidence to attend exercise classes and socialise with friends for the first time in 2/3 years! I am able to look in the mirror and feel good about myself, and most importantly I have a very good understanding of what foods support my health. I no longer feel bloated, sick or have acid reflux issues. I feel totally brand new!”

6-month programme” Jennifer was most amenable in the huge task that was set before her. I appreciated very much the help and encouragment given to me during the months of discussion online. I have lost weight, improved my fitness, and no longer have to crawl up the stairs on all fours! Through discussion with my GP I have stopped my medication for Type 2 Diabetes having successfully put it into remission. I would most certainly recommend this service and already have done so!”

6-month programme“I joined the 3-month programme as I was aware that I was needing support with my nutrition and fitness, my biggest challenge being getting back to a fitness level I was happy with and eating less unhealthy food. Our fortnightly discussions helped to keep me motivated and inspired me to take action. Jennifer was friendly and supportive. I found it helpful to get advice from someone who isn’t a friend or family member, who has a wealth of knowledge. I am now more active, more aware of what I am doing when it comes to choices about my health and wellbeing, and more importantly I feel better in myself.”

3-month programme“I was referred to Jennifer as my blood pressure was high and I also have Type 2 Diabetes. Jennifer is so easy to speak to and from the beginning was so supportive. We covered a different topic at each session, she passed on so much information that has helped me to change my lifestyle; from encouraging me to do a little movement every day, to meal planning and shopping. I feel that I have made so many changes that are now part of my daily life.”

6-month programme“I joined the 3 month programme as I wanted to optimise my health using a holistic approach with an aim of reducing my medication burden. Jen provided guidance on which medications were essential and which may be able to be reduced with nutrition and lifestyle changes. She also gave education on the supplements I was taking and potential interactions and monitoring. I enjoyed the experience and am clearer that overall health isn’t just about food choices. Jen was very knowledgable and informative and willing to find answers to any questions I had. I would recommend this service as sometimes the best choices aren’t always clear and Jen has a wealth of knowledge to support and guide in this area”.

3-month programmeMy top 3 goals when starting the programme were to lose weight, exercise more and improve my sleep. Jennifer was able to help me work towards these by suggesting which foods I could include into my diet to crowd out the less nutritious choices and identifying which parts of my routine were impacting my sleep. I have now lost 3 stone which has enabled me to exercise more and walk for longer distances without feeling breathless. Jennifer is very helpful and understanding without being preachy or judgemental. I would absolutely recommend this service.

6-month programme“I found myself falling into bad eating habits and needed help to get back on track. My main goal was to increase my energy so I felt I could go out and enjoy myself more and learn more about my thyroid condition and how to manage it better. Jen provided loads of support during the sessions and really helps you celebrate all the small wins which ultimately lead to an increase in knowledge and moving closer to the final goal. I really enjoyed the programme and the fortnightly sessions were great for information from the video call to sink in and begin implementing advice. The programme is entirely catered to your needs and Jen is super down to earth and so lovely to chat to! She is really understanding and provides so much support and finds fun ways to help you reach your goals. She has a mountain of knowledge she is eager to share, but makes it easy to understand. I’ve found the enjoyment in cooking again and I’ve noticed my energy levels increase. Instead of just having a defined meal plan, she looks at your lifestyle as a whole and helps you make lasting changes (with nutrition being an aim but she also helps with routines and mindsets too!). I would definitely recommend this programme, Jen’s ability to personalise the programme to you makes it unique.”
