My Story: I grew up in Belarus. When I was 8 years old, the Chernobyl nuclear disaster happened, with 70% of the radioactive fallout going to Belarus; there was a heightened public health appeal in the months following the tragedy. As a public, we became acutely aware of the importance of looking after our health holistically.
At the age of 18, in my first year at university, I started working with the Chernobyl Children’s Project - a charitable foundation based in Ireland. During my summer vacations from university, I brought children from the Chernobyl area on health recuperation programmes to Ireland. This work was both challenging, sad at times but also rewarding. My groups of children came from an orphanage, hence, aside from working as an interpreter at various events, I was also involved in social work with vulnerable children. Seeing children’s health affected by Chernobyl, the efforts that were made to help them have a better quality of life made me determined to get involved in public health initiatives.
My career development took several paths, with a brief stint in journalism. I specialised on the issues of child development and child nutrition. At some point, covering the subject of rising childhood obesity rates in the UK in mid 2010s, I became convinced that prevention of obesity and diabetes type 2 in the young need to start from educating the parents. I saw there was a big information gap in the public health sector and sought a qualification as a Health Coach from the world’s largest nutrition school - Institute for Integrative Health, New York.

I practise an evidence-based approach, my Health Coaching tools are grounded in sleep science, nutrition science, behavioural science and neuroscience. I read latest peer-reviewed studies and adjust my recommendations when science has new evidence, which in the field of nutrition it does all the time!

By knowing which foods to eat or how to exercise smartly and get enough sleep, we either expand the life of our mitochondria and thus inject energy into our body or we make them deteriorate and die.

Become a better self
I am honoured to have been educated by the world’s leading experts in sleep, metabolism, inflammation, gut health, hormone health, mindset strategies, positive psychology, and many other.
I was lucky to have trained and learned from some of Britain’s best trainers. Our fitness goals change at various stages of life, but exercise helps us stay cardiovascularly fit, balance blood sugar, maintain healthy weight, and most importantly have good mood and sleep regulation preventing mental health issues.
I take immense pride in being able to teach people how to make healthy choices in their sleep, nutrition and exercise so that these become part of their lifestyle. It is empowering to show how small practical changes can achieve big results to last a lifetime.
