FOUNDER / NUTRITIONAL THERAPIST / HEALTH COACH / BUSINESS MENTOR
Helen Moynihan, CNHC, BANT
My journey into Nutritional Therapy was triggered by my own health crisis. Feeling desperately ill, low and helpless after 18 months on fertility medication coupled with a diagnosis of Polycystic Ovaries, I knew there had to be another way. My life changed after the first appointment with a wonderful Nutritional Therapist. Finally, someone not only listened to me but also opened the door to a world where I could take control of my own wellbeing. With balanced nourishment and empowering advice, my health returned, followed by two natural pregnancies. I have never looked back!
The care and knowledge I received from my Nutritional Therapist were life-changing, and I wanted to share it with others. I gave up my high-octane career to study nutrition with the renowned Institute for Optimum Nutrition in Richmond, Surrey.

After qualifying and building a successful practice, I founded Venus Nutrition. I now work (mostly) with women who struggle with hormonal imbalances (PCOS, endometriosis, infertility, menopause); digestive and gut disorders; fatigue issues and weight gain. I have a specialist interest in pre-diabetes and diabetes. I am also a guest lecturer at ION and a business mentor for other nutrition professionals.
Over the years, I have helped my clients take ownership of their health. It is a joy and privilege to work in a field which makes a difference in people's lives.

I had a busy life working two full time jobs as a restaurant owner and teacher. I was equally passionate about my career and my family life being a mother and wife, but was left with poor work life balance and most importantly I didn’t know how to take time for my own health. My body began to let me know something had to change.I had been resilient for many years but no longer could keep up as I had in the past. I suffered from digestive issues and problems with sleep and often felt overwhelmed.
Studying Nutritional Therapy and Breathwork have taught me how to live a life of balance and I am able to live a full life and handle whatever comes my way with energy and focus. I can now help people like myself who want to relieve digestive symptoms, feel less anxious or overwhelmed, gain more energy, have a focused mind, and restful sleep in a holistic way. My mission when working with clients is to guide and support as many people as possible through nutritional therapy and nutritional coaching struggling with these aspects of their daily lives.

Alexandra Emerson-White
I have always had a deep passion for food. After completing my degree in Food Science and Nutrition, I began my career in the food industry, working with some of the United Kingdom’s best-known brands, including Innocent and Marks & Spencer. Despite landing what many would call a dream job, travelling the world developing chocolate and desserts for a global retailer, I soon experienced how profoundly food can affect both mind and body. The daily indulgence, frequent travel, and fast-paced corporate life took their toll. My hormones became imbalanced, my energy and mood dropped, and anxiety crept in. I realised that something had to change, and that true wellbeing begins with balance and nourishment, not busyness.
That realisation reignited my passion to restore health and learn more about nutrition. I left the corporate world and launched my own food consultancy in 2016, working with positive-nutrition brands while studying for a Master’s degree in Personalised Nutrition. It was a transformative experience that reinforced my belief that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to health.
Today, as a nutritionist and functional medicine practitioner, I help women put their health first through personalised nutrition and lifestyle support. I have completed the 12-month mentorship with Angela Heap, the UK’s leading specialist in Fertility Nutrition, IVF & Pregnancy Nutrition. I specialise in supporting couples with fertility and women through life’s key transitions from puberty to motherhood helping them find balance, energy, and confidence along the way.
