You’ve been carrying so much for so long and most people don’t even see it.
Not just the diagnosis, but the appointments, the fatigue, the rearranged plans, the mental load, the quiet grief, the logistics, the smiling-through-it.
Women don’t run out of motivation.
They run out of capacity, support and breathing room.
Hi, I’m Kristal.
Women’s Health Coach, lived experience human, capacity realist.
I was diagnosed with endometriosis as a teenager and have since navigated infertility, IVF, an immune condition and now perimenopause. And like so many women, those experiences happened alongside careers, caregiving, household load, relationships and everything else life expects us to juggle.
It’s never just one thing, and it was never designed to be your responsibility alone.
What those years taught me is this:
-
Women’s health isn’t separate from everyday life.
-
It’s connected to energy, sleep, food, movement, stress, rest, identity, relationships and capacity, through every season of womanhood.
-
And when one area gets overloaded, everything feels heavier.
My approach
I support women in Geelong, the Surf Coast and across Australia to rebuild steadier energy, nervous system capacity and everyday wellbeing through the Five Foundations:
-
Food that nourishes without perfection
-
Movement that supports, not drains
-
Rest that your life can actually hold
-
Rhythm that fits your season, not someone else’s
-
Connection, to yourself, others, and meaning
We start with one (not all five) because change only sticks when it’s doable.
Coaching isn’t about fixing you.
It’s about supporting you while you take care of yourself.
You deserve support that considers your real life, not the imaginary one you’ll start living
“when things finally settle down.”
That’s where I come in.
Why women seek this type of support
-
They’re exhausted but still functioning
-
They’re juggling health and responsibilities
-
They want steadier energy and capacity
-
They want support that respects their reality
-
They’re tired of being told to “try harder” or “just rest more”
-
Some are navigating perimenopause, endometriosis, IVF, pregnancy or postpartum.
Others are simply carrying a lot and want life to feel less like a marathon without a finish line.
Your season matters, but it doesn’t have to define you.

A little more human context
-
Most days start with tea and a mental inventory of everyone’s schedules.
-
My house is lived in, not styled. The laundry has opinions.
-
Weekends are family, friends, kids activities and wondering what's for dinner, again.
-
I read constantly, take too many photos and disappear into podcasts.
-
We share life with two dogs, Millie and Poppy, and one cat, Shadow, who runs the place.
-
The motto that’s carried me through hard seasons: Just take one more step.
