Gut-health & mindful eating
A calmer way to eat for women worn out by bloating and second-guessing. Here, food becomes something to trust again — evidence-based, unhurried, and entirely yours.
I'm Maeve
Accredited Practising Dietitian & gut-calm guide for women
My clients come to me tired — tired of bloating that arrives without warning, of the ever-shrinking list of “safe” foods, and of feeling at war with their own bodies. They know me for the calm I bring to the chaos, and for refusing to hand anyone another restrictive plan to white-knuckle through.
I trained as a dietitian because I believe eating should feel settled, not fearful. For years I watched women trade one elimination diet for the next, each one narrower than the last, and still feel unwell. So I built a gentler way of working — one rooted in the science of the gut, paced to real life, and free of shame.
My whole practice runs on a single belief: that a calm, well-fed gut is built through understanding, not deprivation. We find your triggers, widen your plate again, and rebuild a relationship with food you can actually keep — for good.
Core Beliefs
Nourish, Don't Restrict
Health is built by adding good things back in, not by cutting your world down to a handful of foods you're afraid to leave.
Trust Your Gut
Your body is always sending signals. We learn to read them together — calmly, without panic — so eating stops feeling like a guessing game.
Progress Over Perfection
There are no perfect days or ruined ones. Small, steady, repeatable changes are what quietly settle a gut for the long run.

Words from the women who were in your shoes
Moira Strand

I'd been through so many plans, cutting out food after food, and still felt bloated and unsure. Maeve was patient every step of the way — she helped me eat with ease and finally pinpoint my triggers. For the first time in years I'm not afraid of my next meal.

I came to Maeve exhausted and living on the same five “safe” meals. She widened my plate again without ever making me feel like I was doing it wrong. My bloating has settled and, honestly, I feel like myself around food again.
