sound familiar?

  • You run your life well. People think you've got it together. And then there's the thing nobody sees.
  • You eat for every reason except hunger: stress, boredom, loneliness, even joy. Sometimes in secret.
  • You've done every diet you can think of. You start again Monday. By Tuesday, it's unravelled.
  • The food noise never switches off. It's running in the background of your whole day.

Here's what diet culture won't tell you. It was never a willpower problem. There's a reason it keeps happening, and it can be understood.

Hi, I'm Nic

i've been exactly where you are

From about age eleven I believed happiness came in a smaller size. I dieted, I restricted, and by my early twenties I was eating secretly in my car and drowning in shame. When my GP named it binge eating disorder, I wasn't offered therapy. I was offered weight loss surgery.

I had the sleeve at 23, got the smaller body, and kept bingeing. That was my turning point. Healing couldn't come from shrinking my body. So I studied psychology, completed a Master of Counselling, and built the Food Freedom Method.

what the women say

Words from women who did the work with me. Shared with permission.

"It was never about the food. I was trying to control the food when the food was just a symptom."
Elle, Break Up client
"A few months into The Break Up, the noise just... stopped. I'm binge-free. Without dieting. Without restriction."
Grace, Break Up Inner Circle
"After just 10 days the food noise stopped."
Sophia, Break Up graduate

and a few messages i've saved

Messages from clients: having your support and guidance has been a game changer; truly so lucky to have come across you; I have never felt so cared for and accepted by a professional
Messages from listeners and readers: your podcast has been life changing; your guide was so helpful; I had no food noise today

Everyone's timeline is different. These are individual experiences, not a promise of results.

Doors reopen in December

the break up

My signature programme. 4 months to break up with binge and emotional eating, for the woman who's tired of white-knuckling it. It's physical restriction, mental restriction and a stressed-out nervous system, and The Break Up works on all three.

  • Group coaching with me. Live group coaching calls every two weeks, with the chance to be coached in the hot seat.
  • Monthly live trainings with guest experts on topics that commonly come up for women struggling with binge eating. Think exercise and nutrition, hormone health. More experts to be announced soon.
  • The Food Freedom Method. 8 modules in the order your healing needs them.
  • A community of women doing this alongside you, plus the chance to ask me your questions in our private space, any time during the programme.
  • Bonuses. Binge Free Coach Belle, a 24/7 AI coach, plus the Food Freedom Recipe Vault and a library of nervous system tools.
  • Inner Circle. For my VIP besties: alongside the group programme, you also get a private one-to-one session with me.
