For a long time, I treated my health exactly how I treated my career: push harder, execute aggressively, and ignore the warning signs.
I spent years climbing the corporate ladder, eventually stepping into the high-stakes role of Head of Marketing at an Australian media company. Later, I pivoted into freelance consulting, and right as the COVID-19 lockdowns hit, I launched a video production and photography business that rapidly scaled into a full marketing agency.
From the outside, I was highly successful. Inside, I was running entirely on pure adrenaline and cortisol.
I was chronically burnt out. Like so many high-achieving women, I felt profoundly disconnected from the body I was living in.
But my journey into health science actually began years earlier, rooted in a profound personal loss.

Throughout my twenties, I was completely unbothered by health. My dad, a dedicated competitive bodybuilder, kept gently nudging me toward fitness, but I wasn't interested. With him in my corner, I felt entirely unstoppable.
Then, when I was 30, he died suddenly. Everything fell apart—not just my health, but my entire sense of identity.
In the painful years that followed, I tried desperately to put myself back together. I pushed my body to the absolute limit. In 2018, I traveled to Costa Rica to study raw food nutrition, but my body held on to the weight and inflammation. Desperate for a solution, I eventually began training for a bodybuilding competition, thinking that matching my dad's path would give me the answers.
I got incredibly lean, and I got strong. For a moment, I thought I’d finally cracked the code.
But pushing my mature physiology that far came at a heavy psychological and physical cost. My mood darkened. My mind shifted. The person staring back at me in the mirror was someone I didn't recognise. I realised I was just replicating the same aggressive "grind culture" that had burnt me out in the corporate world.
I chose never to step on that stage. I stopped, stepped back, and started again.
The confidence and vitality I had lost didn't return by pushing harder. It surfaced when I finally stopped fighting my biology and started understanding it.
I immersed myself in study, earning a qualification in Health Science and pursuing studies in Clinical Nutrition. Realising that clinical nutrition was only half the puzzle for highly stressed women, I also became a certified Breathwork and Somatics facilitator.
When I combined hard health science with deep, somatic nervous system regulation, my body finally felt safe enough to heal. The chronic inflammation vanished, my metabolism reset, and I reclaimed a level of vibrant, unshakeable energy I hadn't felt in decades.
That evolution became the foundation for True Nature Nutrition and our signature framework, The True Nature Method™.

Beyond the weight loss, beyond the body composition, here's what clients actually say.
Meet Sarah, CEO and Mother (a case study)
Sarah is 43. She’s a CEO, a mum, and like many women in their 40s, she felt like her body had suddenly changed. She wasn’t eating takeaway every day. She wasn’t sitting on the couch. In fact, she was eating what most people would consider a healthy diet and trying her best to stay active.
Yet the weight kept creeping up.
Her energy had disappeared. She was waking during the night. She felt puffy, inflamed and frustrated. The strategies that had always worked for her simply weren’t working anymore.
More than anything, she started questioning herself. “Am I just getting older? Is this how it’s going to be now?”
When Sarah reached out, we didn’t put her on another restrictive diet or overhaul her entire lifestyle overnight. Instead, we made small, strategic changes to the foods she was already eating, introduced a structured strength and movement plan, prioritised recovery, and worked with her changing physiology rather than against it.
Within weeks she noticed the scales moving, her energy returning and her sleep improving. Over the following 90 days she achieved her weight-loss goal of 8-kgs while building habits she could actually maintain.
Today, Sarah isn’t constantly wondering if she’s doing the right thing. She understands her body, knows exactly how to fuel it, feels stronger, has more energy, and no longer relies on motivation to stay consistent.
That’s the difference understanding your body and having the right strategy makes.
Working with Alicia has been an absolute joy. She meets me exactly where I’m at. Her coaching is flexible, supportive, and perfectly structured without feeling rigid. I feel informed, confident about what works for my body in my 40s, and able to build strength and wellbeing without guilt or restriction. I’d recommend her to any woman 40+ wanting knowledgeable, kind support.
