Sound familiar?

You're not out of willpower. You're out of order.

  • You've started again on a Monday more times than you can count.
  • You skip breakfast, you're starving by 3pm, and you call it a willpower problem.
  • Shakes, apps, the 75-day thing. Each one worked, for a while.
  • Now the internet wants you scared of seed oils as well.

Hi, I'm Annaleise

Breakfast first. The greens powder can wait.

I'm an Accredited Practising Dietitian with a Master of Dietetics from UQ, working with women online from Caloundra on the Sunshine Coast.

I'll never hand you a meal plan or tell you to cut out bread. I'll help you work out what actually matters for you, in the right order, and talk about your sleep, your stress and your week, not just your plate. And yes, I'll happily tell you which processed foods are helping.

"The healthiest weight for you is the one you can hold while still living your life."

More about me
How I work

One or two changes at a time. That's the method.

I won't hand you every answer in the first session. We change one or two things, keep them until they're automatic, then add the next. It feels slower, and it's why it lasts.

  1. Weeks 1–2

    The honest picture

    What you eat, when, and what's already been cut. Energy, sleep, digestion and cycle mapped together. No calorie counting.

  2. Weeks 3–8

    One or two changes at a time

    Eating enough, eating early, protein where it counts, then the specific fixes for what's bothering you. Each change gets time to settle before we add the next.

  3. Weeks 9–12

    Make it yours

    Widen what you eat and build the version that survives a holiday, a bad week and a busy month.

This is how Spark runs: 12 weeks, with a session every fortnight. See what's included →

What I stand for

Women have been failed twice.

First Diet culture

"Eat less. Count everything. Cut the bread. Start again Monday."

Every round works for a while, which is why it feels like it's your fault when it stops.

Then Wellness culture

"Scan the label. Avoid the oil. Buy the powder."

Some of it has merit. Almost none of it matters until the basics are in place. It's not wrong, it's just out of order.

The third option Kindling

Fundamentals first. Fine-tuning later. Something you'll still be doing in ten years.

Changes that stick

The right things, in the right order.

Nobody needs to worry about seed oils before they're eating breakfast. We build it in sequence, one or two changes at a time, until each one holds.

01

First, the fundamentals

Eating enough, eating early, protein where it counts, fibre, sleep. The unglamorous 80% that most plans skip, and the heart of Spark.

First 80%
02

Alongside, what's bothering you

Bloating, cravings, your cycle, perimenopause. Specific, practical fixes worked in as we go, right down to the two kiwifruit.

As we go
03

Later, the fine-tuning

The extras worth doing, once the basics hold. This is where the trends finally get their turn, in Continuity.

Last 1%
Is this you?

Three ways in. One way of working.

Bloating, constipation, or a gut that runs your day? That's often part of the story too, and we'll sort it as we go.

Talks & workshops

For studios, teams and clubs.

Practical, down-to-earth sessions for women who train, work long days, or both: what to eat, when, and what a realistic day actually looks like.
