About
Hi, I’m Sophie
I’m a registered nurse and health & wellness coach, and I created The Rise With Sophie to support women who want to feel healthier without adding more pressure to already busy lives.
I work mainly with women over 35, including women living with chronic illness, pain, fatigue, stress and overwhelm.
Your health should fit around your life, not take it over.
Why I do this
Support that meets you where you are
Alongside my professional experience as a nurse, I also understand personally what it is like to manage chronic illness, pain and fatigue while working, parenting and balancing everyday life.
I know what it is like to have good intentions but not always have the energy to follow through; to want to exercise but need to rest; and to know what might help but feel too exhausted or overwhelmed to actually do it.
You don’t need more guilt, stricter rules or another unrealistic routine. You need support that meets you where you are.
My approach to health coaching
Areas we can work on together
- Nutrition and sustainable weight loss
- Sleep and recovery
- Stress and overwhelm
- Energy and fatigue
- Movement and exercise
- Healthy habits
- Mindset and accountability
Some weeks may feel easier than others. Progress can look different depending on energy, pain, illness and life circumstances.
Both high-energy and low-energy progress count.
Professional knowledge. Real-life understanding.
Evidence-informed coaching, built around your life
My nursing background gives me a strong foundation in health and wellbeing, while coaching helps us focus on what actually works in your everyday life. I combine evidence-informed health knowledge with compassionate coaching, practical support and lived experience.
You won’t be handed a perfect routine and expected to make your life fit around it. We work together to create something that fits you.

Coaching is not medical care. It works alongside the support you receive from your GP or specialist, and never replaces it.
Final invitation
You don’t have to overhaul your life to improve your health.
If you're tired of starting again, feeling like you've failed, or trying to keep up with health advice that doesn't fit your life, I would love to support you.
