Hello, I’m Sandra – I’m a registered Nutritional Therapist and Mindset Coach with a mission to help you to live better, healthier and a disease-free life. Fatigue, weight gain, low mood and lack of motivation are not signs of “getting old”. Being constantly stressed and busy or anxious is not normal either.
I truly believe in mind body connection in achieving optimal health, however modern lifestyle made us disconnected from what our body, mind and soul really need to thrive and enjoy the life to the fullest.
What I’m especially passionate about is the impact of stress and habits in developing chronic diseases and healing. I see many people with fairly healthy diets but struggling with lots of health issues. We live longer, but we are getting unwell at much younger age comparing to our ancestors.
It took me years to find the WAY, the way to true HEALTH and now I want to share it with you. Before that, let me just share few more things so you know if you are in the right place or not:)
My area of expertise
I specialise in thyroid health: Hashimoto’s, hypothyroidism and hormone imbalance related symptoms like PCOS, weight gain, acne, anxiety and mood disorders
Thyroid is the “boss” of your body that regulates basically everything what is happening in your system: digestion, sleep, energy, mood, heart and much more! Unfortunately is quite often overlooked and misdiagnosed. When your thyroid is sluggish or inflamed, everything else slows down.
I help women that are sent back home with “normal blood results” but feeling unwell, not knowing why. I’ve been there. I know it is overwhelming and confusing being left in the dark.
With my guidance and support you can achieve the results and feel better quicker
My story
My journey through health hurdles began when I was very young. Since I was 16, I struggled with the worst thing that can happen to a woman…ACNE. My entire face was covered in pimples and I didn’t feel comfortable to leave the house without make up. I became obsessed with clear skin and was trying all I could to improve it: latest skin care products, facials, then supplements but NOTHING really worked. The skin obsession came at a price…..
I lost my period for over a year – I exercised too much and didn’t eat enough. My attempt to compensate for imperfect skin by achieving a ‘perfect’ body didn’t go well. I ended up in a hospital as a borderline anorexic and was almost placed on HRT. Luckily, my mum didn’t agree to that, as she has always believed in natural alternative medicine.
At age of 18, I was diagnosed with PCOS, and in my mid-20s, I developed subclinical hypothyroidism. This arose during a time of overworking and—yet again—overtraining! Juggling a corporate career in London, pursuing another degree, launching my business, and getting into breakdance and calisthenics only added fuel to the fire! I was waking up 5:30am each day to manage my schedule and at midnight I was still so wired that I even didn’t feel tired. I struggled to switch off as I was already planing another day.
A wake-up call
Despite my passion for health and longevity, I consistently found myself making choices that inadvertently harmed my well-being. My busy lifestyle, though seemingly fulfilling, was actually backfiring. Same with diets – at the beginning, I was trying lots of trending diets, quite often going from one extreme to another, from vegan to carnivore. Also spending thousands on supplements. The problem was that it helped with one thing but then created another problem.
For example, a vegan diet helped with inflammation and my skin but also quickly depleted me of valuable nutrients, leading to thyroid and adrenal issues. I was unknowingly pushing my body to its limits, running on adrenaline and relying on coffee. When my thyroid slowed down, it was a wake-up call. My body was urging me to slow down too. My body was crying for help for a long time but I was just not listening and constantly ignoring signals it was sending me.
The breakthrough
The key to my healing wasn’t just finding a balanced diet or addressing gut and liver health; it was a deeper exploration into my nervous system and mind-body connection.
The real turning point came when I recognised the profound impact of STRESS on my body.
We often underestimate just how much stress – whether it’s work-related, emotional, or from lack of time to rest and recharge – can throw our hormones out of whack. By pushing ourselves to the limits, I don’t mean only intense excess exercise and working long hours. It’s also neglecting our needs, lack of boundaries, over-giving and under-receiving.
These are psychological stressors that affect our physical body and our hormones!
Leaving my job in banking was a tough but crucial decision. It helped me realise that to truly heal, I needed to take a break, learn to listen to my body, align with my true self, my needs and shed the toxicity of an environment, social pressures and relationships that were out of sync with my beliefs and aspirations (that creates stress too!)
I’m really grateful for all the obstacles and health issues as I believe that each experience and people we meet, teach us something important or show us something we were not aware of and that what is ultimately needed to achieve optimal health and fulfilment.
By embracing holistic approach and dedication to live authentically, I finally overcame my health hurdles. Now, I combine my personal experiences with professional expertise to support women dealing with similar struggles, hormonal imbalances and thyroid disorders, guiding them towards a healthier, more harmonious life.
