Evidence-informed coaching for midlife health.

Understand what's really getting in the way.

I work with midlife adults who want to make changes to their nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, recovery or everyday habits, but are finding it difficult to make them stick.

I help you look beyond the obvious, find what matters most, and build changes that work in real life.

You've tried. So why isn't it working?

The things that worked for you before may not work in quite the same way anymore.

Your body has changed. Your life has changed. Your priorities may have changed too.

The answer might not be more information, more discipline or another plan. You may need a different way of looking at your health.

You may think you need…

More discipline

You may actually need more recovery.

To lose weight

The bigger issue may be stress, self-talk, habits or your environment.

More motivation

You may have lost sight of what you're actually working towards.

A better routine

Your life may simply not support the routine you're trying to follow.

The obvious problem isn't always the real problem.

That's where we start.

Why work with me?

Before becoming a Health and Behaviour Change Coach, I spent more than 20 years leading organisational change across corporate and not-for-profit organisations. That experience shapes how I work today. Change rarely fails because people don't know what to do. It fails when the plan doesn't fit the person, the circumstances or the life around them.

I start by looking beyond the obvious to understand what's really getting in the way.

Through my Connected Thread Method, we look at the whole picture - Body, Environment, Mind and Direction - to find what matters most and decide what needs attention now.

My background spans nutrition, health coaching, fitness, Pilates and running, alongside two decades of experience in change and transformation. I combine that practical expertise with a coaching approach that helps you think, choose and act for yourself.

Where you need answers, you will get them. Where you need to find your own, I will help you get there.

Then we build what holds.

My Built to Hold program takes this approach into an 8-week process of testing, adjusting and building sustainable change that fits real life.

Work with me through education, workshops, 1:1 coaching or Built to Hold — depending on what you need.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY

Real results. Real people.

"Susan Short's guidance as a Health and Nutrition Coach has been transformative for my health and wellbeing.

Through her practical advice, encouragement and personalised approach, I was able to improve my energy levels, achieve my target weight and see significant improvements in my overall health markers.

Beyond the physical results, Susan also helped me build the confidence and knowledge to take control of my own health and wellness in a sustainable way.

I'm incredibly grateful for her support and highly recommend her to anyone looking to make lasting positive changes to their health."

— Jenny, Coaching Client

"As a 50-something active woman I needed a coach to help me finesse my approach to nutrition in this new phase of life. My pre-menopausal ways of food and weight management were no longer working and Susan's sensitive approach to listening to my particular challenges was key in addressing this.

Using science-based resources mapped to my personal goals, we developed a realistic and flexible programme that yielded results early in our sessions.

I have learned a lot with Susan and nutrition management is no longer a mystery. My sleep has improved and my overall sense of well-being has benefited greatly from working with Susan. I cannot recommend her services enough."

— Simone, Coaching Client
