EAT WELL, FEEL GREAT
ARE YOU READY TO MAKE A CHANGE?
Why Nutrition Coaching?
Sometimes, it can feel as though the body we once had - the one that obligingly responded to a few quick tweaks to our eating, drinking and exercise habits - has deserted us and been replaced by a sluggish, weight-gaining, out-of-control imposter.
It's frustrating when the old quick fixes we used to rely on turn their back on us and disappear off into the mid-life sunset. The good news is you don't have to tackle this alone.
Nutrition coaching empowers you with the information, skills and daily actions you need to nourish the body you have now and to live your happiest, healthiest future. It's about giving you the tools you need to take control and implement long-lasting sustainable change to support your body and wellbeing in your 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond.

Client Feedback
"Supportive and motivating, knowledgeable and passionate, understanding, and non-judgemental...Gen really gets to know you as an individual, helping you to embed the right choices and changes that can work for your life.
Understanding the changes in my mind and body and realising that what I was doing in my 20s and 30s to get fit and lose weight was not so applicable in my 40s was a huge eye-opener. I feel healthier, less stressed, have more control, understand my body and mind a whole lot better and have lost quite a few inches too. But fundamentally, my absolute takeaway is that I have finally achieved the golden ticket, which for me is consistency.
I had my annual blood test results back and for the first time in my entire life my tests came back as green and were that of a normal person, this is unbelievable and has never happened before. [It] is absolutely down to better eating, understanding my body, exercise water intake etc. - everything I learnt from you. "
VB
"The reason behind me taking nutrition coaching was because I was stuck in a rut with diets not working, feeling fatigued and unmotivated to put myself first... and to lose weight and fit into my clothes. I just felt that all the other diets were not sustainable, and I needed to identify what would work with my body and palate. I was also experiencing health issues around menopause and other health concerns [and] I knew that if I got my diet right, then things would improve.
After the 6-week course, I felt that I had total control of my eating habits and knew what worked well for my health and weight loss, and understood portion sizes. I have definitely noticed more balanced mental health and weight loss ...my energy levels have also increased.
Gen was an amazing, empathetic and a supportive coach throughout my 6-week course on MST and through the meal planning and advice on WhatsApp, which enabled me to stick to a new way of eating that is sustainable. Thank you Gen.…."

Nutrition for your 30s, 40s and beyond
With so many transitions happening for women in midlife, coupled with the demands of work and caring for older or younger family, we can be left feeling overwhelmed, overstretched, and our own health and self-care fall to the bottom of the priority list.
All those draws on our time and energy make it difficult to consistently implement good nutrition, especially when relying on willpower and good intention alone.
By learning how you live, listening to your needs, discovering what's really important to you, and then working with you to instil long-lasting behavioural change, we can create the a nutritional approach that works for you based on your goals, your needs and your lifestyle.

40s Woman & Beyond Corporate Packages
A 2022 cross party House of Commons Women and Equalities Committee report highlighted that lack of support for women with menopausal symptoms in the workplace is pushing highly skilled and experienced people out of work. The Fawcett Society’s Menopause and the Workplace report showed that one in ten women who worked during menopause have left a job due to their symptoms. With women over the age of 50 being the fastest growing segment of the workforce, this is an opportunity for forward-thinking employers to retain and support their talent.
Putting menopause on your company’s agenda can retain talent, reduce absenteeism, increase employee well being, improve morale, and even enhance a company’s reputation. It demonstrates a commitment to adapt organisational culture to support talent, and fosters an inclusive approach, important for diversity within the workplace. Research also indicates that providing training for employees of all ages and genders contributes to a sense of value, understanding and empowerment among the workforce.
Understanding what they may experience both before and as it happens, can help women to make constructive changes and feel positive about their future within the workforce. 40s Woman and Beyond's Anna Black and Genevieve Hallam have collaborated to develop introductory workplace packages drawing from the latest research to empower your workforce.
