Hello & Welcome to Happy Body!
My Story
I’m Samantha, a Women’s Health Nutritionist and certified Health Coach, and the founder of Happy Body Ltd, my online clinic dedicated to supporting women through every stage of their health journey.
I grew up in Lyon — the French capital of gastronomy — so you’d think I always had a naturally varied, wholesome diet. But the truth is, I was a fussy eater with a serious sugar addiction. Pasta, biscuits, fruit juice… that was my daily menu. I would even call ahead before dinners to check what was being served because I disliked so many foods.
It wasn’t until my early twenties that I realised I needed to completely re-educate myself and rebuild my relationship with food.
​
But my real “why” runs much deeper.
I come from a family of women who have faced significant health challenges: breast cancer, fibroids, debilitating menstrual pain, and more. Growing up ten years younger than my sisters, I saw them suffer every month — vomiting, bedridden, unable to function — and yet no one ever offered them real answers or support.
​
And then it happened to me.
For years, I dreaded my periods. The pain was so intense that one day, during an exam at university, I simply couldn't sit down. I didn’t understand why my body was working against me — and no one seemed able to explain.
​
This personal history is the foundation of my work.
​
During the pandemic, when the world pressed pause, I finally had the space to listen to my inner voice — and training as a nutritional therapist became a revelation. I went on to complete an intensive health coaching certification in partnership with NHS professionals, deepening my understanding of behaviour change, emotional support, and the lived experiences of women navigating complex health issues.
Today, my mission is clear:
To support women with painful periods, hormonal imbalances (PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, perimenopause), fertility struggles, stress, fatigue, and sleep challenges — with empathy, science, and zero judgment.
​
Happy Body exists because women deserve answers. Women deserve care.
And women deserve to feel at home in their own bodies.
