Nathalie@New Leaf Nutrition & Coaching

I took up Nathalie's nutrition programme a few months after having my second child, wanting a change in lifestyle, less anxiety, more energy and lifelong changes to my health. I found the course liberating, learning all sorts of ways to better my eating/drinking habits..without once feeling hungry or like I was going without. It was fun and Nathalie ensured that I never felt pressured, only accountability for choices which helped me develope good, life-lasting habits over the 3 months.I have left the programme feeling like I can maintain the changes I have made and all my goals set at the start of the course were reached. I am so happy I did the course and would recommend to anyone wanting to make some long term changes to their health.

I am writing this testimonial 6 months after working with Nathalie. If I had written it just after I finished the coaching I would have written words like ‘excellent coach’, ‘inspirational’, ‘Nathalie is incredibly experienced and knowledgeable’.Due to work pressures and life this testimonial got pushed to the bottom of the to do list and in the end, I am so pleased it did. Today I can write that working with Nathalie has had a profound effect on my relationship with food and my health. My gut issues are not just healed, I am very clear now what affects it and how to remedy any issues that do arise from time to time.I have learned how to create balanced and healthy vegan meals that I really enjoy, which I couldn’t say before we started to work together. I have a healthy attitude towards food and always thoroughly enjoy the occasional treat I have without guilt – a game changer. I even love drinking over 2 litres of water every day and my skin is amazing!I am losing weight very slowly and I am really enjoying watching my body gradually transform, while knowing I will never put weight on again. This is life changing. I am still learning what works for me and I know, without a doubt, that another six months from now I will have completed my transformation by embedding new habits into my life that will become ordinary behaviour.However, the most important thing for me from working with Nathalie is the energy and spirit she brought to my sessions. She helped me overcome a long standing childhood issue that has freed my mind and spirit and for that, I will be forever grateful.As a coach myself, she is my inspiration and I hope one day to be as skilled and intuitive as she is. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Nathalie is my hero! I approached Nathalie with very specific gut issues, but what our sessions taught me was that you need a 360 degree approach when dealing with the body. She's insightful, inspiring and empathetic - all the tools needed to see more clearly why someone might be struggling, whether that's related directly to a diet issue or if it's something more emotional. You'll be surprised how connected those two things are! I've learnt tools for life, emotionally and physically. Not only is my gut working as it should but I feel calmer and happier! Couldn't recommend Nathalie enough.

I am confident to say that If you have any kind of problem in your life, please know that Nathalie is able to help you get through it as she did with me.Nathalie came into my life just at the right moment.I was looking for help. I was exhausted, bloated, overweight, couldn’t sleep even for a couple of hours without waking up a few times, my energy levels were very low, fatigue, pain, inflammation and acid reflux were big problems too and I was angry and hungry all the time.I thought I would start looking for help to lose weight and eat well and then investigate the other issues after, but I was so well surprised what Nathalie could offer me.A whole package in 12 weeks of real help, she gave me a plan I was able to follow very easily, (is lasting even now, after almost 3 months, in this hard time of a pandemic I feel I have all the notions to help myself staying on track mentally and physically) she helped me going through it, helping every time I was stuck, stressed or overwhelmed.My relationship with food is different, I can finally enjoy it. I feel free of the prison of looking out for calories, or fats etc. I feel what is good for my body now, and I am aware when something is not.I enjoyed my personalised plan so much and I have a very different relationship with myself now.My pain has improved so much and I don’t need to take all those medications anymore, I learned what sleeping means (I can now stay asleep all night long), I’ve lost weight, the acid reflux is gone, my skin looks better.Nathalie gave me the tools to become a better version of myself and I am so grateful for it. There were some things I knew for years I needed to change but was not able to because I didn’t have the right tools that Nathalie kindly offered to me.What is very important to me is that I immediately felt understood and listened to and there was no judgment from her side. This allowed me to open up and look into my issues from the right point of view.Some things really looked impossible to achieve, but here I am 6 months after we started our journey and couldn’t have been happier about choosing Nathalie and her program.Wonderful journey and outcome.Thank you, Nathalie, for being who you are and for making me feel so good and proud about myself!

My name is Maria and I am over 60 years old. I have had type 2 diabetes for at least the last 20 years.At the time I contacted Nathalie I was overweight, constipated, bloated, feeling low, tired and stressed.I had read about Nathalie and Gut Loving Life in our local magazine. I contacted her and subsequently signed up for the course and her support.During our weekly sessions Nathalie helped me to change the way I think about food as well as how, when and what to eat. She helped me to set up realistic goals and to make more informed choices. Through her I have also learned to better value myself and improve my self worth.I now have a healthier lifestyle and feel less emotionally attached to food. I have reduced the units of insulin that I take. I have more energy, feel less bloated and have more regular bowel movements. I am more confident and feel less stress.I would like to thank Nathalie for her help, support and expertise.

Nathalie has been immensely helpful to me. I wanted to adjust my diet so that I could have plenty of energy, lose a little weight and feel good about myself. She is very approachable, easy to talk to and very pleasant, not to mention very professional and informative. The programme is very easy to follow with lots of helpful tips. I feel so much better physically and I've lost some weight without even trying. I know I'm well on my way to having more energy and feeling more confident. For me, when I feel good about myself I feel more confident. I would recommend to anyone to invest in seeing a nutritionist as this will definitely improve your quality of life, how you feel and how you think. Good physical health improves your intellect and your mental health. This person for me is definite Nathalie. Remember, your first wealth is your health. Thank you so much for all your help.Nazima Hossenbux

I wasn’t in a good place when I found Nathalie but working with her has been amazing. She has completely changed my thought process in such a positive way. She explains everything so clearly and is so encouraging for you to succeed you soon realise that what she says makes perfect sense. Thankyou Nathalie for helping me get back on the right path.

I decided to visit Nathalie after suffering years of acid reflux,Tummy Upsets and bloating which were on going, resulting in taking lanzoprazole for a long period of time. I went on a 2 month journey with Nathalie where she introduced me to a whole new way of eating, viewing your gut life, and choosing the right food. I could not recommend Nathalie enough,I am finally off my medication after nearly 4 yearsOf taking it and my acid reflux has really calmed down, all thanks to Nathalie’s incredible coaching. I feel so much better in myself and Nathalie has been such a great guidance, I am ever so happy I got the chance to seek help from Nathalie and improve my overall health and happiness. Her work is exceptional and I really enjoyed the whole experience. The things Nathalie has taught me,I will take on board for life. Thank you again Nathalie, you are incredible! X

Nathalie has been amazing. I booked my course as wanted to get rid of reflux symptoms and improve the way I felt. We worked together with the nutrition side of things as well as emotional side. I didn’t feel that I had to change lots of things at once but that it was at my pace. Nathalie was so supportive and gave me so many tips and advice. I now appreciate how healthy food choices and stress management can improve how I feel and this makes me want to continue this lighter brighter way of life.Thanks again Nathalie.

The last 10 years I have suffered with poor gut health and have basically received only platitudes from various health professionals who said in so many words, ‘it is what it is - learn to live with it!’ I reached the point of NOT accepting both my condition and the lack of constructive help. My condition effected my enjoyment of life and my ability to engage with people and travel without anxiety and being armed with Imodium! After 20 years of playing golf the prospect of 18 holes of golf was becoming not worth the risk. As a last resort my daughter recommended me to Nathalie @ New Leaf Nutrition & Coaching as she was aware of her specialism and thought it would help. I quickly signed up for a course of coaching and threw myself into it. The best investment I could have made that is proving to be a life saver, restoring my ability to recapture a zest for life that had to a degree been lost. Nathalie’s unquestionable knowledge and her gentle compassionate nature has been a revelation. What I thought was a life time condition has proved not to be the case. Given you have the resolve and enthusiasm to follow Nathalie’s guidance I would highly recommend anyone engaging with this gifted individual. Chris Birch. Devon
