Ambitions and Challenges

For the woman navigating perimenopause in silence. For the one feeling stretched thin by corporate demands. For anyone longing to feel well, not just “well enough.” You’re not alone. You want clarity, calm, and care that meets you where you are. You want to feel heard, supported, and empowered to make choices that restore your energy and wellbeing. This space is for you.

Here to Help

I offer holistic, evidence-informed support for women in mid-life and corporate settings—blending herbal medicine, iridology, Qigong, and practical natural lifestyle strategies. Whether you're seeking relief from hormonal shifts, emotional overwhelm, or chronic stress, I create personalised protocols and sensory-friendly resources that support your body and mind.

About Me

Hello, my name is Lynn. After years in the corporate world, I experienced burnout, anxiety, and the disorienting fog of perimenopause. That’s when I began listening—really listening—to my body. I trained as a Qigong teacher, studied herbalism and naturopathy, and embraced food as medicine. Now, I help other women reconnect with their health through practical, nurturing care. My approach is grounded, inclusive, and designed to fit real lives—not ideal ones.

"Lynn has a practical, caring and empathic approach and one aspect that stands out is that she suggests achievable and realistic goals. This has helped me make positive changes to my lifestyle rather than feeling overwhelmed with too many suggested changes

With Lynn's guidance my sense of well being has improved and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an effective therapist"

Ashley

"I saw Lynn after 2 years of trying to remedy the impact of long covid myself as doctors didn't really know what to do. She was warm and welcoming, and recommended an approach that hadn't even crossed my mind. It did the trick, within a month there was a very noticeable improvement and after 4 months or so I felt like I had really turned a corner. Would recommend anybody to try herbalism and in particular to see Lynn for whatever it is they're trying to improve within themselves."

Nicky

“Lynn's knowledge and understanding is absolutely amazing. Her caring, kindness and empathy is wonderful; always researching and trying to help with an alternative option. My husband has various health issues, after talking through some of these with Lynn, she has given great guidance and possibilities.

I would definitely recommend Lynn to anyone seeking an alternative source including wellness support.”
