About Bonnie

Hi, my name is Bonnie and I am a passionate and lavishly energetic health and nutrition expert and professional mind trainer from the east coast of Australia.  

I help people bridge the gap between wanting to do and actually doing. 

Why? Because I spent 15 years of my life living with anorexia nervosa. 

For those 15 years I struggled with the incredible frustration and in moments unspeakable shame and desperation over not being able to convert the knowledge and insight I had of what I “should” be doing into actions. 

Working in the hospital system I saw many others struggle with the elusive steps between what they knew they “should” be doing, what they wanted to do and what they actually did. 

I eventually found the help that allowed me to bridge the gap between wanting to do and doing and was able to overcome severe physical and psychological pain I never imagined I would be free from.

After my healing I knew I had to help others with the practical “how to” overcome the things which had held them back from being who they knew they could be, who they wanted to be and go on to genuinely and authentically succeed in life. 

I wanted to help people like you do this more quickly than you’ve been told is possible, if you’ve been told it’s possible at all.

So, I learnt.

I learnt and am still updating my knowledge and skills daily, on how to truly best support brain and mind health to support peak functioning. 

I studied and continue to study biomedical science, nutrition and dietetics, neurobiology, clinical and medical hypnotherapy, neurolinguistic programming and success coaching with some of the best in the world. 

I want getting help for a health problem, be this physical or mental to be as simple and straightforward as: 

1. Recognising “I have a problem” or there is something which isn’t quite working for me or could be better.

2. Going out and getting the help to change it.

3. Change it.

4. Move on with life.  

I don’t want you to get stuck in the shame, guilt or worry that it’s never going to be ok (that I was all too familiar with during my sick years) and make the problem a battle for the next 2 years, 6 years, 15 years or define the rest of your life.

You will always grow and change and face new challenges and real struggles in life but please don’t stay stuck in this one problem for eternity. You are more than that. 

I believe health is our most valuable asset and something which has potential far beyond the prevention or management of disease. 
Without our health and energy it doesn’t matter how much time or money we have because we cannot enjoy it, which to me is the whole purpose of the short time we have on this planet. To enjoy it!

Ps. In my spare time I am most likely to be found in or by the ocean. 

I love surfing, sailing, diving, swimming as well as playing with any animals I can get near (I especially love birds!), dancing, playing tennis, walking barefoot on the sand, drawing and painting, reading and laughing with my incredible friends who are my family.

I believe when you are fully connected to who you are and living with abundant energy there is magic and wonder to be appreciated in even the most mundane of moments (including dare I say it, doing the dishes) and I strive to make the most of each moment of each day I am given because a chance let alone a second chance at life is a blessing.

Become Great.  Live Great.

Bonnie.
