Today’s blog prompt was a beautiful one:
What are the things you like to talk about?
For me, this question goes much deeper. It feels like asking, what are my special interests?
When I stopped to think about it, it all came together so clearly.
I have several special interests that I could talk about for hours:
Prematurity and supporting families through their neonatal journeys Neurodiversity, both personally and professionally, as a mum and individual Mum life, and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with it Being true to yourself, especially when the world expects you to fit a mould Diabetes and diabetic foot care, an area of deep professional expertise Foot care in general, because prevention and early intervention truly matter
If you look closely at all these topics, you’ll see a common thread: I have always followed my gut and my human design. Even before I consciously realised it, my life choices have reflected what I needed to do, not what others thought I should do.
Why I Started My Business
I started my business to help families who are carrying invisible pain — whether that’s the trauma of a premature birth, navigating life with a neurodivergent child, or managing their own neurodivergence while raising a family.
I know that pain because I have lived it. I know that longing for someone to understand.
And now, I offer the support that I once desperately needed.
My Professional Journey
I originally trained as a Podiatrist with a specialist interest in Diabetes and prevention — because prevention truly is better than cure. My passion in this area led me to write my book Grandpa, Diet, and Diabetes (ad).

But my drive to help people didn’t stop there. I also became a beauty and massage therapist, offering another way to bring comfort and healing into people’s lives.
Then, after surviving Sepsis — a life-altering experience — I became passionate about raising awareness of the signs and symptoms of this silent killer. Because knowledge can save lives, and sharing my story could make all the difference for someone else.
Following My Human Design
Writing this blog made me realise something profound:
I have always followed my heart. I have always followed my human design.
Even when I didn’t have the language for it, even when I didn’t consciously know what ‘human design’ meant, I was instinctively trusting myself.
Now, I listen even more carefully to that inner voice. It’s led me here — to this blog, this business, this purpose — and for that, I am truly proud.
