Born in the 1960’s with the condition of Eczema, there was very little known about this condition and quite rudimentary treatments were being used. My childhood was Itchy and painful. My school years, I was treated like a Leper. It was physically and mentally exhausting and traumatising.
I never did ‘grow out of it’ and my 20’s and 30’s were very challenging trying to navigate eczema and the onslaught of food allergies as well as being a young Mum and trying to be a good wife. The itch and pain of these conditions were very distracting and all consuming.
By the time I reached 38years of age, my whole body collapsed under the weight of a lifetime’s use of cortico-steroids and other toxic medications used to try and offer relief and comfort - all very short term. I nearly died from the condition and the treatments. My will to live however, was much stronger.
It took divorcing myself from modern western medicine, removing myself from the world of allopathic medicine and stepping into the unknown world of Natural, Alternative medicines and Holistic Therapies to recover my physical and mental health.
I did it on my own terms. It wasn’t easy, but it was 100% worth it.
This experience put me on the path of becoming a Mentor and Coach for others who experience and suffer eczema and the associated auto-immune conditions, for without this experience I would not be able to help you navigate your way toward a healthier and happier life, using sustainable and long term therapies to manage and support your condition in a way that you can feel ‘normal’ and comfortable in your skin.

Every so often, we all need someone to talk to and it’s often easier to talk with someone who is not family or friends, rather someone who has had a similar experience and navigated their way through it.
