Is your life a whirlwind at the moment
What fabulous things can you do to support yourself while you’re going through pesky change? How can you thrive through adversity?

Could it be your thyroid?
A new client came to me yesterday. She’d been diagnosed at 16 with an under active thyroid and she’d been on Thyroxine ever since. She’s now 40, obese and miserable.

But we believe it. These unkind forms of … Read more
