About Me
Hi! I’m Anneka. I’m a certified Health Coach and Nutritional Cook, and a member of the Association of Naturopathic Practitioners (mANP), supporting women as they navigate hormonal shifts, fertility journeys, postnatal challenges and perimenopause symptoms.
My journey into nutrition and wellbeing began with my own experience of motherhood, health, and the need to find balance again.
After becoming a mother in 2017, I found myself feeling disjointed and adrift. I was navigating the transition into motherhood while trying to stay connected to my former life and continue my career as a jewellery designer. In the midst of it all, I was not nourishing myself properly or taking the time to listen to what my body truly needed. Like so many women, my perinatal experience affected both my physical and emotional wellbeing.
By 2020, with the birth of my second child, a global pandemic, and an autoimmune diagnosis added to the mix, I knew something had to change. I needed to restore balance, make my health a priority, and explore a more supportive way of living.
A creative at heart, I found a therapeutic outlet in the kitchen and became increasingly drawn to the powerful connection between food, lifestyle, and health. Holistic medicine had long been part of my world: my mother, a GP turned Functional Medic and a true advocate of preventative healthcare, taught me the importance of looking beyond symptoms and seeking the root cause.
Today, I bring together personal experience, professional training, and a deep belief in the body’s capacity to restore when given the right support. I have studied Nutrition in Culinary (NTEC) at the renowned Leiths School of Food & Wine, qualified as a Health Coach, and I am currently in my final year of studying Nutritional Therapy at College of Naturopathic Medicine.
My story may feel familiar: moving through life on adrenaline, slowly edging towards burnout, and forgetting to give our bodies the nourishment, rest, and care they deserve. So many women carry on quietly until exhaustion begins to show up as aches, pains, even autoimmune challenges, or a fragile sense of wellbeing. As a Health Coach, my heart is in helping women feel supported, empowered, and more like themselves again by guiding them to set gentle but powerful boundaries and reclaim a sense of control. As a nutritional cook, I offer nourishing food that helps women feel cared for, restored, and ready to flourish in this new chapter.
My focus is on restoring balance to your body & mind.
To support you in reaching achievable, sustainable & healthy nutritional & lifestyle goals.
