This space exists to share my thoughts on all things health. As a wellness coach, I spend my days working with people and examining new trends or bodies of research, and I want to make the best of it available for anyone who shares my curiosity.

Some time ago, I became increasingly aware of the complexity of human beings and how unique we are as a species - years of program writing and diet prescription for people wanting to chase goals often ignored humans' mental, social and environmental needs. Deep Health is a phrase I learned about during a time of curiosity and learning for me, and it has led me to where I am today. As I grappled with the identity challenge of becoming a Father, I stopped to ask who I am and what do I want (something I recommend to everyone). You might ask, what on earth does this have to do with fitness, diet and health in general? Everything, as it turns out.

I wanted to learn more about human behaviour and what makes us tick. For example, although millions would disagree, weight loss is more complex than calories in vs calories out. What about the social situation of a human? How might that impact their food choices? Their environment, too and what their home is like. How much time do they spend on a screen, social media, emails, sleep...the list goes on.

This website is my first attempt to use my knowledge to empower others to ask those questions from a health-first perspective. Most of my opinions come from a place of sports, fitness and nutrition (my three main knowledge bases), so apologies in advance. However, you won't need a regimented fitness plan to follow any of the messages!
