SIAN'S MISSION, VALUES + PERSONAL STORY
mission: a heart-led desire to help women feel well again. to re-connect with themselves and what God designed. providing education, support, empowerment + community, to help each woman cultivate confidence in creating + sustaining a future of health. health that allows for a long and thriving family life, as one. all experienced in a way that works to liberate every woman away from a feeling of confinement from a fear-based way of learning, living + thriving + into our God given design, ancestral wisdom, embodiment of freedom + faith in our innate ability to heal. creating a more nourishing and fulfilled life for ourselves + the generations that follow us.
VALUES:
FAITH
praying about everything, or whatever that looks like for you, and walking in faith, whilst honouring God and what he provided, is a wonderful way of supporting our own decision making and problem solving and is something i try to focus on daily. realising what is possible, rather than what isn't possible. living with faith over fear. walking in faith provides a sense of inner compass and can have the powerful ability to protect our mind, change our health and change our life.
FREEDOM
we were all created with the God given right of freedom and autonomy over our own body, and those of our young children. the freedom to choose and to decide how we want to approach our own health. i will stand for my own freedom and the freedom of others. even as a naturopathic health coach guiding you on your journey. that is all I am in the area of client-coach relationship. a guide, a support, and a safe space where you have the freedom to flourish. your health is in your hands. God designed our bodies to heal, but it is our responsibility to steward that journey. your body, your choice, whilst i walk with you hand in hand.
RESPECT
respect, kindness, boundaries, forgiveness and understanding are all areas i try to live by. no human gets this right all the time and this is where asking for forgiveness comes in. keeping an open mind, working on nervous system care, serving others, setting boundaries, practicing and asking for forgiveness where appropriate. as a coach, i offer clients a safe space in my heart-led coaching practice filled with respect and understanding.
INTEGRITY
showing up to choose courage over comfort and following through on values, authenticity, remaining honest and walking the walk in family life, and to those we serve outside of that environment. backing up our values and intentions with our actions and voices.
COMMUNITY + CONNECTION
they say it takes a village. our ancestors lived together, joined hands together, supported together because we as humans are not designed to go it alone. we are wired to seek support, and in that, we see not always perfection, but progress.
REFLECTION
to reflect upon our actions, is where we can improve. reflection leads to recognition, growth and the ability to strengthen our skills to support
others, and ourselves.
ABOUT SIAN:
hi, i'm sian, qualified college of naturopathic medicine nutrition and health coach, with a huge passion to help women thrive.
I have been on a long health journey and ever since I started my own healing process, i knew in my heart i wanted to help others.
​
when my mum was just 37, she went to heaven after experiencing breast cancer. my sister was 5 and i was 7. a lot of supressed grief and emotional dysregulation followed. my struggles continued into my teen years and adulthood. the emotional struggles developed into physical health struggles.
In 2014, i got to my lowest point, and i knew i had to make a change. I started by changing my food choices. i transitioned to a plant-based diet and initially felt great. I implemented mindset work and emotional healing, namely EMDR (eye movement desensitisation reprocessing) therapy, which was lifechanging, but other than that, i was going it alone, without any proper advice from anyone trained in nutrition, coaching techniques etc. I thought i was on the right track but in hindsight i had been following the popular nutrition and diet trends, popping the supplements, spending tons of money and fumbling my way through, with no real idea of what I was doing. although I didn't realise this at the time. emotional issues progressed to gut issues, hormone issues, thyroid issues, an overall trashed metabolism, and the list goes on. eventually I ended up in adrenal burnout, severly depressed, and in hospital.
​
after a long length of time complaining to doctors about bloating and abdominal pain, and being told there was nothing wrong with me, after weeks of being on the bathroom floor and back and fore A&E being told there was nothing much wrong with me, I ended up in hospital with sepsis, my organs shutting down, struggling to breath, struggling to stand, and being rushed to emergency surgery to remove a 2.5kg 26cm ovarian cyst. I remember being rushed down to surgery in a state of hysterics not thinking I was going to wake up again. I did wake up, and instantly felt a whole new outlook on life. I had no relationship with God at thetime but I juts kept saying in my head 'God is not done with me yet'. and it was upwards from there.
​
after recovery started, I took my health into my own hands. I cut through the confusion, did the research and discovered that how the mainstream world tells you to eat, is not so optimal at all. it's extreme, and inaccurate. why are we the sickest we have ever been? I also discovered that health is about so much more than nutrition. nutrition really is just a tiny element. i learnt that our environment matters, our natural rhythms matter, proper hydration matters which goes beyond drinming water and consuming minerals, i realised that getting down to the very smallest particles in our body namely, the smallest particles of light (photons), and the smallest particles of matter (electrons, protons, etc.) matter. biochemistry (protein, fat, blood sugar balance, vitamins, minerals etc) matters but biochemistry needs a signal. without the appropriate signals we end up chasing our tails.
I discovered a lifestyle that supported my body on a on a cellular level. I discovered a lifestyle free of restrictive diet culture. and a lifestyle full of nourishment and healing. my journey led me to train as a health coach at the college of naturopathic medicine. I started my career to support women who are struggling to navigate their health journey. women who are struggling to heal from their chronic symptoms and dysfunction in the body. women wanting to feel more energised, optimise their hormones, improve their gut health, overcome weight loss resistance and regulate their weight management system in general.
healing is a huge picture puzzle, where the pieces all fit together. we areinately designed to heal, but we need to steward that process by providing the right environment. my job is to coach you on that journey, help you navigate your way to more energy, less anxiety, more food freedom, and create that solid foundation for you to explore a wellness journey on an even deeper level. in my experience, this can look like the inner emotional work that is keeping you stuck. but to do that, you need energy, strength, and a solid foundation to help carry you forward.
as for me, i have a huge passion for promoting natural health and wellbeing and practicing it daily myself. I love nothing more than waking up at sunrise, getting outdoors, being in nature, spending time with loved ones, travelling, exploring and creating beautiful memories, all whilst walking in faith.
the journey to get to where i am now was challenging, until I figured out what real healing was about, and implemeneted systems, strategies to help me create new healthy habits. the journey may have been challenging, but i know this is exactly where i am meant to be. this has been the most rewarding work of my life. and i look forward to spending a lifetime showing others the way to real health in a more natural way.
