About Nicki: Vegan Wellness Coach
My Story
You could say my 45-year career in weight loss started because I was a fat child.
Not just “a little chubby.” I mean the kind of fat that makes school photos feel like punishment.
And that early struggle with food and body image led me to a lifelong career — not just studying nutrition, but helping other women find peace with food and pride in their bodies.
By the time I was in my 20s, I had a wild idea:
What if I could help people lose weight with portion-controlled, healthy meals — just like my mother did for me?
So I studied nutrition, trained in dietetics, and built one of Australia’s very first home-delivered weight loss meal companies. Our tiny family kitchen evolved into a commercial operation with walk-in fridges, gas stoves, and 21 franchise locations. At its peak, my programme was helping thousands of people each week.
That was long before social media, flashy apps, or 800-calorie starvation plans. And it worked.
A New Chapter: Helping Women Over 50 Find Balance
After decades in the weight loss industry, I transitioned to what I do now: supporting midlife vegan women through the hormonal and metabolic changes that make weight loss feel impossible after 50.
I’ve walked this road myself.
I’m 74 now and have maintained a healthy 50 kg for over 14 years without obsessing over calories or chasing fad diets.
Through gentle, plant-based eating and a smart, hormone-conscious approach to weight management, I teach women how to:
Reduce cravings and bloating
Stabilize their mood and metabolism
Feel more at home in their bodies again
Why Plant Based? Why Now?
After 40+ years in nutrition, the evidence is clear to me: plant-based eating works — especially in midlife.
Not because it’s trendy, but because it’s sustainable, satisfying, and science-backed.
The vegan recipes and tips you’ll find on my site aren’t about perfection — they’re an invitation.
Try a few meals. See how you feel. Many of my clients start with one or two plant-based days a week and never look back.
Credentials & Continuous Learning
Even after four decades in the field, I never stopped studying. My wall now holds diplomas in:
Advanced Clinical Weight Loss
Nutritional Therapy
Detoxification
Vegan and Vegetarian Nutrition
I’ve learned that the science changes — but people don’t.
We still want to feel better in our clothes, in our kitchens, and in our lives. And that’s what I help with.

If you’re a woman over 50 navigating the frustrations of weight, hormones, and energy, I’m here to help — not with hype, but with real solutions that respect your body and your life stage.
