Hello Fellow Breast Cancer Survivor
Are you ready to take charge of your health now treatment is over?
Hello Fellow Breast Cancer Survivor
Are you ready to take charge of your health now treatment is over?
If you’re here, then we’re meeting under circumstances neither of us saw coming…
I know how it feels to have a shock diagnosis and how fighting this disease completely takes over your life. Perhaps your body doesn’t look like it used to and now you can’t stop worrying about the cancer coming back.
So what’s next? How can you navigate this fear and uncertainty and be able to enjoy life and feel in control again?
If you’re anything like me you’ll have been on research overdrive. But whilst you’ve probably never been more determined to make healthy choices you might also be feeling frustrated and confused by all the conflicting advice out there. Trying to stick to ‘safe foods’ and missing out on the treats you once enjoyed is just no way to live! Perhaps you’re also unsure about what other lifestyle changes you can prioritise that will truly make a difference to your long term outcomes.
And what about the effects early menopause as a result of breast cancer treatment? Feeling guilty for complaining about hot flushes or weight gain as a survivor of cancer can be incredibly isolating. You might also be wondering if HRT is even an option.
If this sounds like you, I’m so glad you’ve found your way to me because I’ve been there and I have the answers.
You don’t have to figure this out alone.

I was in free fall. I would spend hours reading articles on the internet trying to pull together information that would help me find a way forward. I had lost all confidence in my body and was completely overwhelmed by the journey ahead. Meeting Sandie for the first time I knew she was a good fit for me. I was struck by her warmth, enthusiasm and compassion. With her guidance, I have made meaningful changes to my diet and lifestyle habits.
I particularly enjoyed the way Sandie would gently encourage me to commit to taking action steps each week.
I can highly recommend working with her.
My personal light-bulb moment…
I remember asking the breast cancer nurse how I could prepare myself for 6 months of chemotherapy. “It’s not the chemo that’s going to be your biggest challenge,” she told me, as she gently took my hand. “It’s changing your diet and lifestyle habits once treatment is over.”
I got the message loud and clear. It was time to consider if how I had been living was having a seriously negative impact on my health.
This was my light-bulb moment.
I left behind my career in the city to train as a nutritional chef at The College of Naturopathic Medicine. But I soon discovered that nutrition alone is not the golden ticket. How we move, the quality of our sleep, the glasses of wine, the toxins we are exposed to – even our thought patterns and emotional experiences; it all matters.
When I started to examine my life through the lens of my daily habits, everything changed.

I started working with Sandie shortly after I was diagnosed and treated for early-stage breast cancer at 41 years old. I was no longer confident about my lifestyle choices. I felt confused about where I had been going wrong and overwhelmed about what steps I could take to help me feel more in control again. My 8 weeks with Sandie have had a significant impact on my overall psychological and physical wellbeing. I feel upskilled and informed and I am better able to discern what’s right for me and my body despite all the dietary noise that fills the media.
I so enjoyed working with Sandie – she was the voice of reassurance, always striking the right balance between tough love and a generous dose of empathy and patience when progress was slow in some areas.
Let’s talk about how I can help you…
Let’s talk about how I can help you…
Two years ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 49. I knew I had to make changes in how I was living – nutrition, stress and simply looking after myself better – but I didn’t know where to start. I hit it off with Sandie immediately and I knew she would make my journey infinitely better. I wanted a complete reset – to focus on my inner calm and mindset, have strategies to improve my sleep, learn how to support my body with nutrition. Sandie gently held my hand through all of it and brought many other topics and habits to my attention, which I had never even thought of as relevant. It was truly transformational – without her help and guidance, I would not have been able to make the shifts that have brought me to where I am today.
I love how Sandie always makes a point of being available to her clients, even after the 8 weeks are finished. This continuity has been very helpful as I will often come across an article or have a question I want to get her thoughts on.
How we will work together…

I want to stop you from wasting money on expensive supplements you don’t need and you probably don’t feel motivated to take.

Have the words “I’m so stressed” become your daily mantra? Are you struggling with exhaustion, poor sleep or belly fat?
Adrenal fatigue is not a warning signal you can afford to miss and it can exacerbate menopause symptoms. Let’s establish exactly what’s going on with your stress hormones and see how that may be affecting your health, energy and sleep.
