Is This Really Happening To Me
IS THIS REALLY POSSIBLE?
5 / SEPTEMBER / 2023
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
As I sit here in complete and utter disbelief at my life… I’m asking myself, is this really happening? To me?
If you’d have told me 3 months ago I’d be sitting in the international terminal ready to make the biggest, scariest decision I’ve ever made in my life...
I dunno that I would’ve believed you
MY DREAM
Don’t get me wrong, I’ve wanted for longer than you could possibly imagine to make this dream a reality, but the divine timing and intervention of it all has really left me astounded
August was a month of goodbyes, and I had to say some really hard goodbyes just an hour ago, but September is going to be a month of hello’s
Hello’s to faces I’ve never had the joy of meeting in person
Hello’s to friends I haven’t seen in years
Hello’s to new opportunities, new experiences, new places and new communities
It’s with tears in my eyes that I write this… I am going, I am soaring, I am spreading my wings and I am so excited at all the possibilities I cannot even yet imagine
I’m also reflecting on all the unexplainable and incredible synchronicities that happened to get me here. The timing has been nothing short of divine. And when they say don’t rush the Universe, well I’m so glad I didn’t because I couldn’t be more grateful for where I am now
These last 3 months have shown me how truly supported I am, have taught me how to really receive… support, love and connections in ways I never thought possible.
Now these next 3 months I am ready to adventure, take risks, be guided by my faith and trust that it is all working out for me as I have so graciously been shown already
NEW BEGINNINGS
I’ve never lived anywhere else in the world (or even in my city), I’ve never gotten on a single flight by myself, I’ve never travelled alone, I’ve never not had everything planned and mapped out to the final detail and yet I’ve never been more nervously excited than I am right now.
I’m off and I’m taking my beautiful business with me, working remotely and travelling for the next 3 months in the USA.
I cannot contain my smile, I cannot contain my excitement, I also cannot contain my gratitude for all the people who helped make this journey possible, especially the support from my amazing mum and incredible friends (you know who you are).
So with that being said, I will see you on the other side, this blog is going live when I take flight and I cannot wait for the new adventures I have that will unfold.

7 Daily Things To Live Your Best Life
7 THINGS I DO DAILY TO LIVE MY BEST LIFE
16 / AUGUST / 2023
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
Habits that keep me thriving in all areas of my health, business and life
Things I do EVERY single day to help maintain a healthy lifestyle, physically AND mentally, without being restrictive ❣️
I recommend these things to ALL of my clients.
MY TOP HEALTHY HABITS
1. Regulating my nervous system (aka controlling cortisol levels 📉)
STRESS impacts everything. Managing your stress levels is SO important for everything from hormonal balance to gut health, spiritual well-being and digestive health. So I make feeling safe in my body my number one priority.
2. Workouts tailored to my body and cycle 🏋🏼♀️
This is essential for regaining your energy. Understand that when you are on your period, your energy levels can be low compared to when you’re ovulating. This means your training and output will look completely different - and that’s fine!
Truth is, if you push yourself too hard when you’re menstruating, you’re just robbing your body of that tiny bit of energy you have. Doing this every month becomes exhausting!
3. Swapping coffee for HBL ☕️
I’m a firm believer in ditching (or at least lowering) the CAFFEINE. But it’s hard to just cut it out completely, I get that! My Hormone Balancing Latte contains no coffee, and a super small amount of caffeine from the cacao so it’s the perfect way to start your day and replace your regular morning drink with something to actually support your hormones.
4. Spending 30+ mins reading every day 📖
Your brain needs just as much nourishment as your mind, and when it's been said we consume over 42GB of information a day (that's 42 trucks stacked top to bottom with reams of paper), you'd better make sure it's real food, not junk food.
5. Not restricting myself (food & drinks) 🍕
If you’re anything like me, you know that food is an important part of life AND you get that you can’t just cut out all of your fave foods forever! That’s why I’m not restrictive with what I eat and drink - and I was still able to balance my hormones, lose weight, and boost my metabolism. Trust me, you can, too ✨
6. Getting out in the sunshine + nature ☀️
Get fresh air and sun exposure! Even if it’s cloudy. This helps your circadian rhythm, sleep quality, vitamin D production, and mood. Bonus points if you get some grounding in, walking barefoot on Mother Nature recharges our human battery.
7. Sauna's 3 x week for my lymphatic system + mental health 🧖🏼♀️
We don't sweat much anymore, and this healthy stress on the body enables you to cleanse out the toxins you could be holding onto (including things like too much estrogen), I time it right after my workouts to optimise lymphatic drainage, and support the release of those endorphins for my mental health
If you have health problems or symptoms that stem from or are aggravated by stress (like IBS) this will help you immensely.
DO YOU DO ANY OF THESE THINGS, TOO?
Let me know which ones in the comments 💖

A Letter From My Higher Self
A LETTER FROM MY HIGHER SELF
5 / JULY / 2023
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
Dear Beautiful Soul,
You’re not going to believe where you are right now. The smile on your face cannot be shaken and the love in your heart will never fade. You are sharing your light, you are sharing your gifts with the world and you are expanding and exploding with joy.
Your soul aligned mission on this earth that has been divinely guided is being lived in right here, right now.
I know where you are in this moment is tough, I know that it feels like the world is crumbling around you and at times like it is all too much. I know that this is not where or how you pictured your life at this point and I want you to know that it is okay to grieve that.
I also want you to know that it is all coming. This is the initiation. A chance for you to reset. To realign your life to your higher calling, to your deeper purpose and also a chance for you to be the fullest, most beautiful expression of yourself.
It is by stepping into this version of yourself that you will attract everything that you’ve ever wanted and more, and let me tell you… it is SO MUCH MORE than you could’ve ever dreamed.
I want to take a moment to see you, to recognise the strength you have had, the vulnerability you have shown, the beauty you have been amongst the chaos and your willingness to continue the fight.
I also want you to take a moment to acknowledge how far you have come and how much you have accomplished, your younger self would be so proud of you if she could see the woman you have become now. Honour that.
You are beautiful, loving, kind and beyond words. This life may not be kind at times, but remember… No one else in this world can do what you do, the way you do it, and that my darling is your superpower.
It is my hope for you that you will trust the path you are on right now, and know that God/Universe/Source has your back every step of the way.
I wish you could see yourself the way the world sees you, you light up every room you are in, your heart transcends the time, space and fear and allows others to feel safe and seen, your ability to simply be is enough. You are enough, exactly as you are.
I love you. I love you. I love you. Thank you for being you, thank you for existing and remember to never stop shining your beautiful light, the world needs you. I need you. You are enough.
And so it is.
With love,
Your Higher Self

3 Steps to a Healthier Body in 2023
3 STEPS TO A HEALTHIER BODY IN 2023!
8 / FEBRUARY / 2023
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
Every year we want to be our best selves, but often a lack of preparation lets us down! Which is why taking charge of your health early in the year is key to setting yourself up for success!!
Take yourself through these 3 steps to make sure you're starting the year with your healthiest foot forward.
3 STEPS TO A HEALTHIER BODY
1. CLAIM YOUR GOALS
And NO I'm not talking about your new year's resolutions, but actual goals... What symptoms do you want to be free of? How do you want to feel in your body? Define what your healthiest self actually looks like… then make a plan to get there!
If you claim them, write them down, make a vision board and then make a plan, you are keeping your mind focused on what you want to achieve. To quote Tony Robbins here ‘where focus goes, energy flows’. In other words, whatever you put your attention on is more likely to become a reality, so get super clear on what is it you want!
2. CREATE HEALTHY HABITS
Too often we go in with an all or nothing approach, like signing up to the gym and training everyday for the first couple of weeks, then burning our bodies out or injuring ourselves sets us back or to a complete halt
Pick no more than 3 new habits, and be REALISTIC with them. Maybe it's going to the gym 3 x week, preparing your meals in advance and meditating daily, but make sure it is something that feels doable and just a little outside your comfort zone.
Then pick a time and pop it as a recurring event in your calendar so it actually happens, and you can progress and increase from there. Trying to do everything all at once is a recipe for failure (take it from me - I learnt that the hard way). Let’s first build momentum and then keep progressing!
3. EAT WHOLE REAL FOODS
A healthier body is one that isn't inflamed, in pain or highly symptomatic - and this really does start with your food. Eating food that grew in the ground, walked on the earth, and is as close to nature as possible is a real food... Tell you what you don't see growing on a farm
A field of bagels!
Put it this way, the less processed the less inflammatory, it really is that simple. You don't have to overhaul your entire pantry, start slow, make some swaps and increase your greens, you'll be amazed at how much better you feel.
Take a slower trip around your supermarket (btw I say AROUND because the perimeter is where you will find the REAL food). Plan you meals before you go, read the ingredients on the ‘food’ you pick up, and get curious about what you’re really putting into your body.
BONUS STEP: GET TO THE ROOT CAUSE!!
If you've been struggling with your health, and really aren't sure where to start, or you feel like there is something deeper going on in your body and you just want some answers… Check out my FREE root cause quiz, filled with tips, tricks and action steps to help your body step into your healthiest self - because when we heal from the root, we heal for good!

10 Lessons From 2022
MY 10 BIGGEST LESSONS FROM 2022
21 / DECEMBER / 2022
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
It’s become an annual thing for me to do each year… take some time to reflect on some of the biggest lessons I have learnt over the year (some I am still in the process of learning and fully embodying). And as always, I love sharing what I learn with you!
It is my hope in sharing that you take something away and are able to apply it to your life, even if it improves it by 5% that’s growth! I also encourage you to take time to reflect on the lessons you have learnt and what powerful insights or takeaways you’re taking with you into the new year.
Remember… Whatever those lessons are, meet yourself with love and grace, and know inevitably, they are all serving you and your highest good! So let’s dive in…
MY 10 LESSONS
#1: TRUST LIFE
The hardest, and biggest lesson of this year has been leaning into trust. And to be completely honest, I feel like I am only just scratching the surface on this one. It has been a really tough year this year for a number of reasons, in all areas of my life, from business, to personal and even my health.
But through it, I was reminded of what truly mattered, I was asked to look deeper within myself than ever before and ask the hard questions. It can be easy to ask yourself ‘why me’ and ‘what did I do wrong/to deserve this’ or even ‘why can’t this just work out’. Believe me, I feel the frustration in all of it, and I still get triggered (I’m only human right).
However, leaning into trust, as scary as it has been, has shown me that everything (yes, everything… and no, don’t roll your eyes at me), happens for a reason. It is still something I am coming to terms with on a daily basis, but the more it happens the more I lean into the discomfort, unpack it and then take the next most logical step forward. Life is far kinder when you are willing to explore from a place of empowerment than victimhood.
#2: THE UNIVERSE IS A FRIENDLY PLACE
To follow on from Trusting Life… this poem/quote from Albert Einstein says everything I could ever say and more about this lesson, so I thought I’d share it with you. (*note: you can replace Universe with anything that feels aligned for you - God/Source/Life)
"I think the most important question facing humanity is, ‘Is the universe a friendly place?’ This is the first and most basic question all people must answer for themselves."
For if we decide that the universe is an unfriendly place, then we will use our technology, our scientific discoveries and our natural resources to achieve safety and power by creating bigger walls to keep out the unfriendliness and bigger weapons to destroy all that which is unfriendly and I believe that we are getting to a place where technology is powerful enough that we may either completely isolate or destroy ourselves as well in this process.
"If we decide that the universe is neither friendly nor unfriendly and that God is essentially ‘playing dice with the universe’, then we are simply victims to the random toss of the dice and our lives have no real purpose or meaning.
"But if we decide that the universe is a friendly place, then we will use our technology, our scientific discoveries and our natural resources to create tools and models for understanding that universe. Because power and safety will come through understanding its workings and its motives."
"God does not play dice with the universe,"
--Albert Einstein
#3: REST IS SACRED
Burnout is not fun (and I got to revisit this old friend again this year)... as a wellness coach, I know the importance of rest from a physical level, and how much it supports a happy body and mind, but this year it struck a little differently.
I felt burnt out all the way to my core, the SOUL of my being actually felt tired. For a few months I felt stuck in a loop of darkness, not quite knowing how to make my way out, but persisting.
I know I am someone who constantly is looking for the ‘HOW’... how do I get myself out of this, how can I feel better quicker, how can I make sure I’m doing XYZ better. And this paralysed me this year, because I couldn’t figure out the HOW.
I had to stop, I had to rest, I had to get still, and in this stillness I found space, I found safety, I found a truer expression of myself and I am still practising it all. However, I am now far more intentional about creating the space to rest (without the guilt) and reconnect with my creative side, recharge my soul and of course… TRUST life in the process.
#4: IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO CREATE SAFETY IN YOUR BODY
This journey of discovering the sacredness of rest and trusting life, allowed me to realise just how unsafe I had been feeling in my own body. It was no wonder I was stuck in burnout, it was no wonder I couldn’t shift my frequency higher… my body didn’t feel safe.
Not only was I communicating this from a physical level (you know by not creating space and resting), but by telling myself stories, limitations, buying into misunderstandings about the things and people around me.
It is so easy to get lost in the world of our mind, and believe every thought we think is true, and if these thoughts don’t serve you they are only going to keep you trapped and feeling unsafe.
So I got curious, started digging deeper into my feelings of unsafety, where did they come from, where did my body learn this, what am I holding onto that I need to let go of, I did the inner work (and am still doing it) to help me get free and feel safe.
And whenever I notice those fears or thoughts pop up I remind myself to get still, offer myself reassurance and love, and be kind to myself. All along I had been looking for others to give this to me, when in reality this is what I needed to give it to myself.
#5: TAKE THE LEAP BEFORE YOU ARE READY & #6: IT’S OKAY NOT TO BE PERFECT
These two lessons go hand in hand… and I want to start by sharing a quote from Lisa Bilyeu’s book Radical Confidence “If you want to do big things, you have to — I repeat, you haaaaave to — get comfortable with being uncomfortable. I wish it weren’t true, but there’s no way around it.”
Which inspires lessons 5 & 6, because in my personal experience and belief system, everything you want is on the other side of fear. In fact, fear/anxiety are actually chemically the same in the body as excitement.
So instead of letting your fear of getting it ‘wrong’ or it not being ‘perfect’ paralyse you, channel that energy into excitement! You’d be amazed what will happen if you just put one foot in front of the other in the direction of where you want to go.
And you know what, if you fall, you can get right back up… it’s all here for our learning. And really, really, really question… is anything ever PERFECT?
#7: LEAN INTO YOUR INTUITION… FOLLOW YOUR GUT
To tie back into my lessons about creating space, and safety… it can be really hard to hear anything when there is too much background noise, or you never slow down enough to pause and listen right? (We are in agreement so far?)
Well then, it stands to reason that we could really struggle to hear our internal guidance (yes we all have it), our intuition if there is too much noise.
If our schedules are jam packed day to day, if we take little time to get creative, play and enjoy life, or we are constantly keeping ourselves playing small, that little voice of guidance is going to struggle to be heard.
However, that little friendly voice inside is STRONG and will continue to knock on your door until it is heard, it is just up to you if you are willing to slow down enough to listen
We have all had that feeling of butterflies in our tummies, or that little nagging that something just doesn’t feel right, only to be proven correct moments or months later, right?
Which just shows how powerful this inner guidance system really is… so take this as your sign to lean in (no matter how uncomfortable it may feel) and get curious on what it has to say.
The more I have created space and safety to hear this voice and allow it to guide me, the stronger, happier and healthier I have become, don’t take my word for it… trust your gut!
#8: YOUR MINDSET IS ESSENTIAL TO YOUR HEALING
“Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right.” ― Henry Ford
Whilst I’d love to just leave that quote to stand alone, because it truly is profound… I’m thinking some of you may want an explanation on just what on earth I (and Henry Ford) am on about…
Your mind can be utilised as your most powerful weapon, or tool to propel you forward in this life, and if you choose to buy into beliefs that keep you stuck then that is how you will stay… STUCK.
If you choose to use this tool however as the transformative asset in your life it can be, just watch it change!
Take me for example, earlier this year I discovered a whole host of health issues in my gut. Now if I had stayed stuck in my mind telling myself that I am never going to heal, that I am just going to keep getting worse, and nothing I do is working… What do you think would’ve happened?
I wouldn’t have healed and would still be feeling like sh*t!
What I did instead, was take action on my healing journey, and when the doubts popped up (oh because they do, and will), I acknowledged them and then shifted them. I kept reminding myself that I was healing, that my body is incredible, and I was going to finish this year happier and healthier than I have ever been.
And do you know what happened? I did, and I have!
Now you could argue that it’s because I did all the protocols and took all the supplements, and yes, you’re right, that plays a massive role. But don’t you think if I kept believing nothing was working that I would’ve even continued to show up and do it? Probably not…
This applies to EVERYTHING!! Don’t believe me… try it for yourself and see.
#9: NOTHING THAT IS MEANT FOR YOU WILL MISS YOU
I was reminded of this beautiful sentiment by my dear friend Samantha Ruberto only a few months ago. Whilst she had said it to me in the past, my ears hadn’t been quite ready to hear it.
It can be so easy to have regrets in life, or get stuck in the ‘what if’s’ or ‘if only’ … but let me share something with you, that’s only going to keep you limited and stuck too. The moment you do, you take yourself out of the present and into the past, away from the magic of the moment that is right in front of you.
When I fully leant into this (again, still learning), I noticed how much calmer I was, how much I trusted life more, how much easier I let things go. Another way to look at it is this… ‘rejection is God’s redirection’ (again use whatever word feels good for you there) but this was a quote I heard from Jamie Kern Lima on a podcast and it really stuck with me.
It all comes back to trusting life…
#10: YOU ARE IN CONTROL OF YOUR TIME, ENERGY, AND RELATIONSHIPS
A long time ago I was taught that you’ll only get out what you put in, and this is probably one of the most literal things I have taken and applied in my life when it comes to my business and my health.
However, it also caught me in a burnout loop of having to put in and sacrifice more time, more energy, and more time and more energy, because the more I put in the more I would get out right? I had trapped myself in a toxic cycle.
Yet, there was one area that stood out to me this year as a GIANT neon sign, an area that I wasn’t feeling held in, and I kept wondering why… my relationships.
I’m not going to lie, my work and career has been my #1 priority these past few years, and I haven’t been able to give my all to the people around me that I love the most, and that started to reflect and wonder why I was feeling left out and alone.
And I realised, I had been expecting people to show up for me, make the effort when I hadn’t been putting the time into reaching out first and nurturing them.
Look don’t get me wrong, I am a giver to a fault, and have had to work MASSIVELY on boundaries because of this *hello people pleasers anonymous* , but that was just it. I was there at people's time of need, or as an ear to listen, but the relationships weren’t deepening like I would’ve liked.
So, I took the principle from above, that you only get out what you put in, and started reaching out, making more of an effort, prioritising the relationships in my life over my work (most of the time haha).
And I noticed a massive shift, in myself, in the quality of friendships I was having. I became more confident in having harder conversations too. As a result, because I was happier, the time and energy I was spending on the business and work was of a higher quality… I realised that the quote wasn’t meaning that more is more, it actually came down to the quality and intention behind what I put in.
Which made me realise how much more intentional I could be, and how much control (in a healthy way), I had over my time, energy and relationships - GAME CHANGER!
FINAL THOUGHTS
So dear reader, if you’ve made it this far, I thank you and I hope that there is something within these lessons that resonates with you. These lessons come from my heart and are expressed with love, vulnerability and truth. I wish you every happiness in the years to come, and may 2023 hold every blessing you could imagine and more!
With love,

How To Get Unstuck In Achieving Your Goals
HOW TO GET UNSTUCK IN ACHIEVING YOUR GOALS
31 / AUGUST / 2022
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
Contrary to popular belief, achieving your goals isn’t just about working harder… In fact, it can be one of the reasons you’re getting stuck! Below I’m going to share with you what really is keeping you stuck and what kept me stuck in the hopes to bring some awareness and insight to how you can break free of the blocks that are keeping you playing small!
“The blocks you are facing aren’t in the way, they are the way!”
This is something one of my amazing mentors @alyssanobriga says often, and I knew it at a conscious level, but I had never really felt it or understood it to the depth I feel I do now.
To put it simply, when you face adversity, or something in your life that triggers you, or you feel is stopping you from getting the desired result or feeling you want… this is your block.
MY BREAKTHROUGH
For so long, I would fight these blocks, continuing to try and go around them, or in all honesty, a lot of the time run away from (hello procrastination) haha! But when I actually looked deeper, I realised that there was a message, wisdom that was trying to be communicated. They say ‘everything in life happens for a reason’ and whilst that is true, I believe that we play a role in our own destiny and now this makes more sense to me as to why.
If we are resisting something we are only creating more resistance, this eventually leads to us creating a reality against this resistance, and therefore the reason that this happens. When we learn to embrace the block or the thing we are resisting instead of trying to fight it, it is actually the key to our freedom.
I’ll give you an example… I’ve always told myself the story or let myself believe that ‘I don’t have enough time’. Now without going into the metaphysical concept of the fact that time simply doesn’t exist and all we have is now, this story has always kept me stuck - a block.
When I got curious, I wanted to see how this block was actually serving me. You see as humans we only continue to do something if it is supporting us in reaching our goals in some way. For me, I discovered that telling myself this story “I don’t have enough time” was motivating me to do my work, complete my tasks for the days, weeks and months. It was serving me, however it was also leading me down the path of burnout, because it was fueling the ‘hungry ghost’ of never enough time.
When I was able to see first that this was a story keeping me blocked, and why it was still there, I was able to see how to get free of it, because the other part of me that wasn’t able to keep going and reminded me to take care of my health, also wanted the business to be a success.
Ultimately, their goal was the same, but I needed to find a new way to achieve what I wanted that wouldn’t burn me out. So, that’s what I did… It actually turned out to be not me having to find more time to do more things, but actually looking at all I was doing and learning to delegate more, and rely more on my team :)
FINAL THOUGHTS
I share this lesson with you, because I hope it sheds some insight on how you could have something blocking you from achieving your goals, but really it is a matter of looking deeper at the wisdom inside this block and seeing what it truly desires for you and how you can meet that desire but in a way that is going to be much more healthier and bring you much more happiness.
So your homework (if you are still with me), is to get still… look at where you are feeling blocked, then ask yourself, what story am I telling myself about this and then see what wisdom comes through. The beautiful thing is, you have everything you need inside of you.
Aaaaaand…. If you get stuck, my inbox and DMs are always open! I would love to help support you through this and in achieving your goals!
Yours in Health & Happiness,

SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
As I contemplate writing this, it's a wet winter day, cold outside and I have my heater on by my feet. I am sipping on warm lemon water, and reflecting on my life this time a year ago…
If you’ve been in my world for awhile now, you will know I LOVE personal development, I am ridiculously sensitive and therefore the very sentimental type. It also helps that I am a Cancer Sun and Moon, Enneagram Two and Projector on Human Design (and if you have no idea what those mean, don’t worry, but it’s fun to learn more about our human selves).
I share this with you because my last year around the Sun has been one of deep transformation, tests and triumphs, yet I still find myself wanting to explore, expand and grow in so many new ways. It seems that has always been the case too.
BEING TOO BUSY
My mother told me when I was little that I was always ‘too busy’, never had time to stop, slow down or even pause for a cuddle, my eyes and mind were always focused and fixated on the ‘next thing’.
Although the cuddle part comes as a surprise (I am a very affectionate person who is always up for a hug), I’ve really come to learn that this core sense of urgency and focusing on the future hasn’t really changed.
It seems no matter whether I am 8 or 28 there is something inside of me that continues to push and focus on what’s ahead, now whilst this is great, I do love the fact that it drives me and makes me ambitious, it also has been one of my biggest struggles.
I share this with you because I know I am not alone, and I also know the rate at which the world is moving right now is at a speed none of us really know how to keep up with… and it only seems to be getting faster.
You see the more we speed up and focus on the future, the more we miss out on the present, the more we are never truly happy or satisfied with the blessings that are right in front of us.
It is always ‘the next goal’, the next house, the next trip, the next job, and all the fears and anxieties around achieving those and where we should be by this time in our lives.
I’ll be honest with you, I know I am still ‘young’ in the grand scheme of things, but there are social pressures and biological clocks that are ticking that give a woman in particular even more stress.
When I was little I used to think by the time I was 28 I would be married with my 2 or 3 children, have my little white picket fence house, be a teacher and settled down in my life. However, this couldn’t be further from the truth, and as much as this does freak me out a little, I am actually really excited for what the future holds and the fact I still have all of those dreams to still look forward to.
FINAL THOUGHTS
So this is your reminder, if you aren’t where you want to be right now, maybe you aren’t even close, look around at all you have to be grateful for. Stop, take a breath in, breathe it out, simply acknowledge how far you have come, and the fact you keep showing up every single day (even when you don’t feel like it).
I know this sense of urgency I have and struggle to slow down is in fact the one thing that is holding me back. If I stopped trying to do so much, and really simplified the things in my life, I know that things can happen a lot quicker and easier… so that is my goal moving forward.
More rest, more easy, more breaks, more time in the NOW, rather than the WHEN (when this happens, when I achieve this, when I can afford ‘x’...) and embracing the person, the body, the life that I already have.
So as I celebrate my birthday this week, I step into an even deeper feeling of gratitude, not for materials that I am thankful to receive, but for every single one of you that is here… reading this, part of the community, that I may have had the privilege to work with or yet to have the privilege to work with, the fact that I have a deep sense of connection to my purpose and mission which is to help human’s heal (particular females), and it is my hope that with every step we can support and uplift one another.
Thank you for being here, thank you for being you and sending you love and light in all your endeavours :) 🙏
With this I will leave you with my favourite quote from Kung Fu Panda (not sure of the original proverb author) … Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, Today is a gift, that’s why it’s called the PRESENT!
Yours in Health & Happiness,

Top 3 Productivity Hacks For Busy Women
TOP 3 PRODUCTIVITY HACKS FOR BUSY WOMEN!
8 / JUNE / 2022
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
Don’t you just wish there were more hours in the day? 😔 This is something I hear time and time again from the beautiful women I work with!
I know when I first started my business, I used to have a to-do list a mile long that I could never seem to get on top of 😓
Tie that into having a business, my own wellness, a social life and rest and well…
That’s when burnout 🔥 happened!
So, I thought to help save you from the same fate, I would share some of my favourite productivity hacks to help you get more done, in less time! 😍
TOP 3 PRODUCTIVITY HACKS
1️⃣ Journal + Plan Out Your Day (first thing in the morning or the night before)
⏰ TIME BLOCKING: break your tasks into groups and allocate a block of time to get the tasks done, this may look like inboxes, client time, exercise, course work etc
❓ REFLECTIVE QUESTIONS: starting your day in reflection to see what’s been working and what needs to be changed means you’re less likely to repeat the same mistakes and therefore save time
🤟🏽 POWER OF 3: choose THREE things that you are focused on that day, anymore is just a bonus, the more you try and take on the more overwhelmed and disappointed you get when you don’t get it all done ☺️
2️⃣ Use the first hour of your morning as your POWER HOUR 👊🏽
Your brain 🧠 is in theta state for the first hour you wake up, meaning brain function is optimised, so include some sort of…
MINDFULNESS 🧘🏼♀️ , MOVEMENT 🏃🏼♀️and MEAL 🍳 to help start your day on a positive note, with great circulation and blood flow, as well as balanced hormones and energy to keep you as focused as possible!
3️⃣ Prioritise Your Health!
This is a big one! Your health is your wealth… and without it you can say goodbye to your productivity, energy and ability to thrive in your workplace.
So keep it simple but effective! 👌🏽
☑️ Sleep for 7 - 9 hours a night to wake up fresh the next day
☑️ Drink 2 - 3L of water to keep you hydrated (our bodies are 70% water)
☑️ Listen to your body and learn to sync your work to your hormonal cycle (it’s a thing - I promise).
Let me know in the comments below what you are going to implement first!

5 Things To Prioritise For Optimal Health
SHEREE'S PYRAMID OF PRIORITIES - 5 PRIORITIES TO OPTIMISE YOUR HEALTH
16 / MARCH / 2022
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
I get asked all the time… How do I lose weight? How do I balance my hormones? How do I heal my gut? Honestly, it all starts HERE, with the 5 priorities I am about to share with you! This is your foundation to health…
TOP 5 PRIORITIES
1. STRESS + SLEEP:
Do not underestimate the impact stress has on your body, this can be food stress, emotional stress, physical stress, mental stress you name it. It triggers inflammation, can negatively impact your gut health and throw your hormones out of whack if you’re constantly producing tonnes of your stress hormone cortisol!
Stress also has a massive impact on our sleep, which as you will know from experience, a poor night's sleep throws you off for the entire day, if not the entire week! Sleep is where we rest, repair, create long-term memories, and recover, in fact it is arguably THE most important thing we should be doing for our health as humans.
YET, we tend to be completely okay sacrificing it time and time again for more things that are creating stress in our life. A lack of sleep not only tells your body to store more fat, but also encourages you to overeat (and not the good stuff), you typically reach for quick fixes of energy - like sugar and caffeine!
You have to be managing your stress and getting enough sleep, this is a NON-NEGOTIABLE for achieving your goals… focus on having set boundaries around your work hours, and getting 7 - 9 hours sleep EVERY single night!
2. SIMPLE WHOLE FOODS:
Forget diets, eat REAL food, you know, the stuff without an ingredients list (or a minimal one), your body knows what to do with it! Yup… if you can’t pronounce the ingredient, chances are your body doesn’t know how to use it and it provides no nutritional value.
In fact, REAL foods like your meat, poultry, fish, fruits and veggies do not even come with an ingredients list. These are the kinds of foods your diet should be rich in. When you look at your plate, you should be asking yourself, is that enough protein? Is that enough greens? What NUTRIENTS am I getting!
Then once you know your nutrient intake is great, you can weave in things that are sometimes foods if you want to. It is about balance, but whole real foods should make up at least 80% of your diet.
3. SUPPORT + SELF-CARE:
Don’t expect yourself to know how to do everything or to do everything for everyone else. Self-care and support go hand in hand. This can literally look like asking for more help from the people around you…
Remember, how easily you say yes to everyone and want to support, well others love to help too. It is OKAY to ask for help and it is okay to receive it too! Sharing the load makes for a much happier environment and YOU! Also, make it a non-negotiable to have at least 5 minutes of YOU time daily and an hour a week if you can, doing something you love!
If you want to take your health to the next level, and aren’t sure to start, it is worth investing in yourself. I cannot tell you how much my health has been fast tracked through having the support and guidance from coaches.
4. STRENGTH TRAINING:
Ladies… LIFT! If you want to boost your metabolism, support optimal hormone production, and feel empowered, start moving some weights! I cannot stress this enough. No matter what age you are, this will support your health and well-being.
And NO it isn’t going to make you bulky, in fact it will help lean you out, get your bones stronger and of course help you feel stronger and fitter within yourself!
Remember… We all start somewhere, so if it's 1kg or 100kg, you got this! Join a gym, take part in a group fitness program, whatever it looks like, but start picking up some weight. It doesn’t have to replace your exercise currently, but see if it can become something you do 2 - 3 x a week. The results will speak for themselves!
5. SUPPLEMENTS:
This is NOT a one size fits all! Make sure you’re supporting your body with the nutrients that we can’t get enough of through food, or are being depleted by stress! Unfortunately, when it comes to supplements, you definitely want to be careful what you put in the body as not all supplements are created equal!
The other side of the supplement equation is that they do play a very important role! Nowadays our soils aren’t being replenished with the nutrients they once were and this leads to deficiencies of nutrients in our food supply, like zinc, iodine and selenium! And if they aren’t in the soil then they aren’t in our food and then we can’t get them!
So, I recommend that you speak to a qualified health-care provider (like myself) when choosing supplements so you aren’t just taking anything off the shelves!

How To Heal Your Relationship With Food Part Two
HOW TO HEAL YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH FOOD - PART TWO
02 / MARCH / 2022
SHEREE'S HEALTH DIARIES
A couple of weeks ago I shared part one! If you missed it… check it out here before we dive into part two!
Ready?
Here’s how to ditch the GUILT and REMOVE the emotional eating.
IMPORTANT STEPS TO HEALING YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH FOOD
STEP ONE:
1️⃣ ACKNOWLEDGE - acknowledge that you ate the food (sound simple) but often we don’t eat this way in front of others, and try to hide it from ourselves too.
Also, acknowledge the guilt. Name it, call it out.
Let it show it’s face instead of just being a feeling that you’re trying to suppress.
When we name the feeling, it has nowhere to hide and we can start to move past it (thanks @alyssanobriga - turns out this tip works for food too).
STEP TWO:
2️⃣ ACCEPT - accept that it happened, accept that you feel the guilt, you can’t change the past so let’s not let it ruin the present or inhibit our future.
Feel where the guilt is present in the body, is it the stomach, the heart, the mind, the chest, the throat, feel into the presence of the emotion that it has brought up if it serves you.
Take a few deep breaths into the guilt, keep breathing through it without judgement, and let it pass.
3️⃣ LET GO - let go of the feeling, let the guilt pass, move on from it and show up for yourself in the way you want to be.
For the next meal you are going to have, make it one that nourishes your body, fills you up with nutrients and is going to truly satisfy you.
Let go of the judgement you placed on yourself, let go of the guilt and know that each meal, each moment is a chance to start to embody the you you want to become.
Make your choices from this place, not a place of guilt or hatred towards yourself (I know, I’ve been there).
FINALLY...
Please know, it’s not about ‘starting fresh’ or having ‘cheat meals’ these labels only make things worse.
It’s like we are giving ourselves permission to binge out and do a disservice to our bodies, knowing we can ‘start fresh’ the next day.
Go back to that question in part one… if you truly feel like that food, and you’ve checked with yourself there’s not another driving factor behind it… then ENJOY IT!
It’s about eating well for you, where you’re at, and restriction often makes things worse!
So, be kind to your body, after all, it is the one TRUE HOME you have!
Yours in Health,
