Hi, I’m Cailie and I help busy mums reclaim their health without the overwhelm.
I don’t just tell you what to eat, I help you understand why you’re not already doing it.
I’m a clinical nutritionist (BHSc) and Behaviour Change Expert, with a background in corporate change management that turns out to be the secret ingredient in everything I do.
I’m also a mum to three high-energy boys, based in Brisbane, and I run a practice focused on 1:1 and group coaching for mums alongside wellbeing workshops for workplaces and community groups.
My story
A lot of women feel like they're sinking without a life vest. It's harder when you're a high achiever who's always been able to handle anything, just work through it.
All my adult life, I had a personal brand of someone who could do it all. Social secretary, fun-time gal, great friend. High energy, loved a drink, lived at the gym. People used to ask me, "god, are you really this happy all the time?"
Then in 2016 I became a mum, and everything got harder. Fast forward to 2022 and I had three boys under five (including a surprise COVID baby), a nutrition clinic I was building while still holding down my corporate career, a tiny cottage with no space to breathe, and a child working through some seriously big feelings that kept our whole family on edge.
Looking back, the warning signs were everywhere. I was running on coffee, comfort food and wine. I was getting sick constantly. Crying more than I ever had. I got to a point where I was fantasising about getting sick enough to land in hospital, just for the rest.
Thankfully I said something to my husband and a colleague, and within days I was on antidepressants that changed everything.
That space gave me room to look honestly at where my energy was going. I was doing too many things, and none of them well. So I pared back. I left my corporate career. Ran my nutrition business part-time. Moved to Brisbane to be near family. I started prioritising my own health again, because it made me feel like myself.
Four years on, and this has been the happiest chapter of my life. I built systems that work in a busy, chaotic life, and that's exactly what I help other mums do: put their health first, without it costing them everything else.
Your best years don't have to sit behind you in your 20’s and 30’s. Mine are happening right now, in my 40’s, stronger and more confident than I've ever been. And I want that for you too, whatever season you're in.
How I work
My approach is educational without the jargon. I take complex topics and break them into bite-sized pieces, because the corporate change management background taught me how to land a concept so it sticks.
I practice calorie awareness over calorie tracking, and the balanced plate method. My clients don’t have time to log food every day, and they don’t need to. As much as you might want to blame your hormones for midlife weight gain, it’s often a case of not being consistent for long enough. Everyone’s been conditioned to expect a quick fix, and there aren’t any.
I do my best work with women who are genuinely ready to confront the version of themselves they no longer want to be. Not women who think they just need a meal plan. This is identity work, behaviour work and nutritional work combined, and it asks something of you. If you’re ready to shake off the rust and take control, that’s exactly where I come in.
I’m not your ‘yes woman’ to enable the behaviours that have been holding you back. I’m your straight-talking sister who helps you push you inch by inch, done with love and care. I lead by example: early nights, barely any alcohol, movement every day, food that fuels me.
