Integrative Nutrition Health Coach
About Charlotte
Hi, I’m Charlotte. I love life as a Kiwi, rural mum, and farmer’s wife but I got sick of putting everyone else’s needs before my own… even the cows! So I took my life and dreams back, got certified in Integrative Nutrition, and created a health coaching practice helping other rural women to take the reins, fill up their cup, and reclaim their health and happiness.
I thought I had done all the “right” things to be happy in life. After I left High School I completed a bachelor of Nursing and had an 8-year career as a nurse in Primary Health care in my small rural town.
I got married and had kids and created a lovely life for our family on the farm which became my full-time job when I left nursing.
But, eventually, I realised I didn’t have the healthy boundaries I needed to take great care of myself. I put everyone else ahead of myself until one day I found myself in a downward spiral of resentment and unhappiness for the things I had given up and realised that only one person could take the reins and turn this horse around… me.
For a full year, I struggled with a mysterious illness and pain until I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. So I started studying Integrative Nutrition, and re-created my lifestyle, taking better care to fill up my cup and I turned an autoimmune disorder on its heels.
Since 2017, I have been leading others on this trail to a healthier, balanced life through my Sustainability Spiral Method combining self-care, a holistic integrative approach to life, and a customized bio-diverse diet and lifestyle to help Unfulfilled Rural Women empower themselves and become Empowered Balanced Women.
