Meet Natalie

A strategist and coach, specialising in brands and service providers in the health and wellbeing space.

Based in the UK in London and Surrey. Working with brands and businesses globally.

I wouldn’t be ALIVE if it weren’t for our medical system and pharmaceutical drugs. 

And yet I would not THRIVE with a quality of life anywhere near what I have if I ONLY relied on our centralised medical/pharma/food systems.

That is why I am SO PASSIONATE about helping alternative health + wellbeing practitioners and businesses in my work.

More than EVER we need options to support our wellbeing. Options that are holistic and integrative in nature. Options that do not suppress symptoms or hand out ‘diagnoses’ that aren’t the root cause.

We all need CHOICE and FREEDOM when it comes to managing our wellbeing.

But to have this, we need to know what our alternative options ARE.

Many people do not know who they need to see or who/what support is available to them to manage their wellbeing outside of our westernised medical system. It can feel overwhelming and inaccessible. 

And yet it is crucial. 

I do what I do - as a brand, positioning and messaging strategist - to help alternative health practitioners + wellbeing providers be seen and to communicate what they do and the value of it, so people can find them and understand their options. So people can feel empowered to access the support that leads to improved wellbeing.

  • “Working with Natalie was exhilarating, exciting, challenging and thought-provoking. I thought I knew my business, but Natalie’s questioning-style and knowledge of marketing tools and planning really helped us progress quickly and get buy in from the whole business.”

    Helen Haider, Marketing Director, LUQEL

  • "There's a kind of power behind your softness. You've got the skills and the experience and the ability to pick up on things. I refer to you as a business strategist. Someone who actually works collaboratively with you to get results. I think the softness and the intuitive style that you have is that killer combination."

    Dee Raseta, Change Management Consultant

  • “Finding Natalie as our brand coach felt like destiny as if it was meant to be. Not sure how to put this but finding Natalie was as if she was sent to us magically to take Wild Wholistic to the next level. We loved that she understood our mission. She gave us guidance and clarity to our brand, gave us the courage and confidence that we much needed and helped us to bring our dream vision into reality.”

    Tamina and Pari, Founders, WILD WHOLISTIC

  • "I’d recommend you to any coach that feels lost in the process and can’t figure out their voice and has been through so many programmes and wants to just come back to themselves. Like all those coaches that keep shifting their bio, their names… Just go to Natalie and you’ll figure out who you are."

    Merly Amos, Life Coach

  • “For any creative you’re a great asset. Clarity is one of the best words I could use to describe you. To create clarity from the chaos, the ideas, the concept in the head, everything… and bring it to the light. And word them in ways that are easy.”

    Sara Declercq, Founder and Designer, SUNDER

  • "What you have done has actually helped me grow not just as a business, but as a person or as a director. I've learnt so much and I guess that's the biggest compliment is you've almost been a teacher and taught me."

    Sandy Rai, Investor, CEO

  • “Working with Natalie was a dream. She uses her unique combination of intuition and experience to pull out and put to paper the essence of the true self. She was able to structure my essence into tangible and actionable content and imagery that can be used to put my true self out into the world. She held me accountable and made sure I kept moving forwards, whilst also being sensitive to other things happening in my life.”

    Camille Akass, Health Coach


  • "I feel much more connected to who I am in my business - I appreciated the insightful questioning that challenged me to discover who I really am and who I am ready to serve."

    Jocelyn Barrie, Life Coach

Qualifications and experience

Natalie believes in taking a ‘root cause approach’ to all things in life, from marketing challenges to healthcare, which is what led her to strategy in the first place. Strong roots create the most thriving growth. 

Hey, I’m Natalie.

I’m a marketing strategist, specialising in brand and product positioning and messaging.

My clients have included brands across supplements, skincare, health tech, fashion, premium amenities, and wellbeing practitioners and service providers.
I’m passionate about working with health and wellbeing practitioners to improve awareness of - and accessibility to - alternative health care support in a world where people are increasingly needing this.

I love to problem solve. I love to unearth insights, connect dots and create an integrative solution. I shine when deeply listening to people, finding the sparks that differentiate brands, and succinctly framing information to create clear and resonant positioning and messaging. 


In the decade since I achieved my degree in Marketing, I have worked for agencies including M&C Saatchi where my clients included Samsung, Reebok and NatWest, and the campaigns I worked on were award-winning. Following that, I went self-employed and was a CMO at a healthtech startup, and have since been a strategy consultant to lifestyle, wellbeing + health brands. 

I’m a natural writer, speaker and presenter. I just love communicating ideas, clearly and passionately. In writing a successful health and wellbeing blog for 12 years, I had the pleasure of working with brands including Nike, Technogym, Adidas and MyProtein to deliver their messages, too.

Through my career, I’ve blended academic marketing rigour with a creative and intuitive approach. I integrate coaching skills into my work for optimal effectiveness and lead with compassion, honesty and positive attitude.
