About me

🌸 Finding midlife changes hard to manage - with hot flushes, low energy, or reflux creeping in?

I’m Lisa Picken, a Registered Nutritional Therapist and Health Coach. I help women in midlife calm their digestion, balance their hormones, and rediscover their sparkle - so you can feel energised, comfortable, and confident again.

Many of the women I work with are dealing with more than just hot flushes, mood swings, and stubborn weight gain - they also feel less comfortable in their bodies and unsure what foods truly support them. These often go hand in hand with hormonal changes, leaving you feeling even more uncomfortable and unsure what to eat - and what to wear!

My approach is all about cutting through the confusion, making food simple again, and giving you practical, realistic steps that fit your lifestyle. You’ll discover how to balance your hormones naturally, calm your digestion, and eat in a way that supports your body - without endless restrictions, calorie counting, or spending hours in the kitchen.

I’ve also been through my own journey to balance my hormones in midlife, and chose to manage my symptoms naturally without HRT. This experience means I truly understand what you’re going through, and I know first-hand how powerful nutrition and lifestyle changes can be.

✨I'm passionate about supporting women to feel free, fabulous, and fierce during midlife challenges.

How I can help
If you’re experiencing:

  • Hormonal symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, hot flushes, low mood, or stubborn weight gain.
  • Discomfort after eating, feeling sluggish or uncomfortable
  • Feeling overwhelmed by all the mixed messages about nutrition and what you “should” or “shouldn’t” eat.
    …then you’re in the right place.

I’ll work with you to create a clear, personalised plan that supports both your hormones and digestion, so you can start feeling more comfortable, energised, and in control of your health again.

What to expect
I offer a supportive, step-by-step approach where you’ll never feel judged or overwhelmed. Together, we’ll look at your whole picture - not just what you’re eating, but also lifestyle factors such as sleep, stress, and daily habits - so you can see lasting results.

You don’t have to put up with unbalanced hormonal symptoms as “just part of getting older.” With the right support, you can feel free, fabulous, and fierce again.

Information about health conditions (*)

Nutritional therapy can help enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting nutritional therapy or making any major changes to your diet or lifestyle.
