Hi, I’m Lisa Irving and I’m a Functional Medicine Health Coach
I’m on a mission to help women take charge of their wellbeing
After years of struggling to find the support I needed, as a mum and in my professional life, I decided to make a conscious career change and focus on helping other women like me thrive and reconnect with their vibrant health and life purpose.
Having worked with many incredible women over the past few years, I understand how tough it is to lose that sense of inner confidence and inspiration. To feel like your body is letting you down and to struggle to make sense of what’s happening. I know how challenging and isolating it can be.
So what brought me to this point in my life? Well, I’ve been where you are.
After becoming a mother, I was faced with all kinds of health issues, both physical and emotional. I found it hard to adjust and find the support I needed. I was looking to make sense of my feelings in a more meaningful way.
When my daughter turned 2, I literally had no energy.
I was struggling with some real health issues, the weight was not going away, and my body was just not able to deal with the stress that came with motherhood. Constantly worrying and being busy had me completely disconnected from my body and what it really needed.
There was no time to just calm down and think — «what do I actually want?»
After years of navigating my healing journey alone, while encountering others on a similar path, I realised how much this service was needed. This sparked my drive to really support women through transitions in their lives.
So I decided to step away from a career I knew, retrain as a Holistic Health Coach and work with women who want to feel healthy, vibrant and purposeful.
I see the value and need for women to reclaim their confidence and freedom.
And the focus of my work as a mentor and a health coach is to help women adapt and find inspiration in everything they do, no matter the changes in their life.
«I can't really remember my first year of motherhood as I was so tired and anxious all the time... I wish I had your support back then but I'm grateful I found you now because I'm finally able to take good care of myself and I relaxed into being a mother»
— Kristina
A concept that has stayed with me throughout my training as a health coach is that…
…the world is missing out on the full potential of so many brilliant people because they don’t feel well!
This concept laid the foundations for my work and how I support my clients.
My goal is to give women easy-to-implement tools and techniques that can help them move forward in life with energy, joy and confidence.
If you have been feeling lost and disconnected from yourself, your new life as a mother and changed body, then I’m here to provide you with everything I know and to help you reconnect with your True Self again.
«I went through a lot of big changes in the last year and when I look back I honestly don’t know how I would have coped if I was completely by myself. Your support kept me physically strong and in a positive frame of mind.»

I am here to help you get where you want to be and feel empowered and strong along the way.
Here are a Few Things you Should Know About Me
I’ve lived in Russia, Japan, Finland and the UK and it helped me understand the value of adaptability.
I speak three languages (English, Russian and Italian) and I am happy to support my clients in the language that feels most comfortable to them.
I come from a long line of medicine women and herbalists, so in essence my work today is an effort to ensure this family tradition continues.
My favourite thing in the world is to come up with effortless solutions for everything I do. I’m especially pleased with my 2-3 ingredient super-quick recipes and I have quite an extensive collection of those!
