Lucy is a Certified Personal Trainer, Health Coach and Dietetics Student passionate about evidence-based nutrition and mindful movement. In her early twenties Lucy discovered her love for the health and fitness and what initially seemed a positive and otherwise harmless lifestyle shift soon led her down a path of disordered exercise and eating habits both of which were magnified by her job as a fitness professional. All of the above left her without a period for several years.

After realising that her lifestyle was not healthy at all, Lucy committed to recovering her period by going “all in” however, she quickly relapsed into HA for another year. Early last year, Lucy committed to recover a second time, this time for good. This time Lucy was able to not only recover her period but rediscover the joy of spontaneity, relationships, and red wine.

It was this recovery journey that Lucy to where she is now, and on her personal “dream career path” as someone who could use her qualifications to help other women also struggling with HA and disordered eating.
