Qualified Nutrition ScientistFinally, Someone Who Understands Both the Science and the Struggle
Personalized metabolic nutrition that addresses why your body stopped responding—not another restrictive diet that fails you in three months.
Hi, I'm Mikaela
The 5'11", Curvy Nutritional Scientist Who Proves Health Doesn't Look One Way
European-trained. Christchurch-based. Living the science I teach. I know the frustration. I know what it's like when nothing works, and I know how to figure out why.
Here's what I learned after years of study and personal experience, your body isn't stuck. It's biochemically different now. Perimenopause rewrites your metabolism in almost every way.
What used to work doesn't anymore, not because you're doing something wrong, but because your hormones, insulin sensitivity, and stress response have fundamentally shifted.
You don't need another meal plan. You need someone who has the science to prove your body makes sense where it is and the presence to walk beside you while you learn to trust it again.
That's what I do. Over 24 weeks, my clients don't just lose weight. They understand their bodies. They rebuild their relationship with food. And they walk away with a framework that lasts beyond 6 months, because we fixed the foundation, not just the symptoms and we did it together.

The Sérénité Women’s Wellness Program
The Sérenité Women's Wellness Program 24 Weeks | Complete Metabolic Reset | Lifelong Framework
A two-phase program for perimenopausal women who've done everything right and need more than another diet.
You need to understand why your body stopped responding. And you need someone who won't leave you stranded when the protocol ends.
Phase 1: Metabolic Reset Foundation (Weeks 1-12)
This is where the transformation begins. Using your personalized Metabolic Balance protocol, designed from your unique blood chemistry, we'll recalibrate your metabolism.
You'll experience:
Energy that returns (no more 3pm crashes)
Sleep that improves (fewer 2am wake-ups)
Hot flashes that diminish or disappear
A body that finally responds again
Regular touchpoints strategically spaced over 12 weeks to review progress, adjust your approach, and work through challenges together.
What we do together:
5 one-on-one sessions strategically spaced over 12 weeks
Unlimited support between sessions (WhatsApp + email)
Protocol adjustments based on your unique response
Education on why your body does what it does
Most women see dramatic improvements within 2-4 weeks, with continued progress throughout Phase 1
Introduction to your wellness Hub and tools
Phase 2: Metabolic Bridge Protocol (Weeks 13-24)
This is what sets Sérenité apart from every other program.
The reset is the easy part. The hard part is transitioning from strict protocol to sustainable living without losing your results.
The Metabolic Bridge Protocol is my proprietary system for making your transformation permanent.
This is where most programs abandon you. They hand you a maintenance plan and wish you luck. Then what? You're terrified to eat normally.
The structure disappears. You regain the weight and blame yourself. I won't leave you there. The Metabolic Bridge teaches you to move from stricter protocol to sustainable, balanced eating, slowly, safely, with someone who believes in you and won’t let you go at alone.
You'll learn to:
Gradually increase food intake to match your true metabolic needs
Integrate movement strategically as your energy returns
Use flexible eating frameworks that maintain metabolic principles
Build portion intuition without endless tracking
Navigate social eating and weekends without derailing progress
Troubleshoot challenges with expert support
The goal: - You become your own expert. You learn to trust your body's signals. You eat freely without fear, because you understand your metabolism and you can manage it yourself.
What's Included:
4 bi-weekly coaching sessions (30-45 mins) at key milestones
Personalized metabolic calculations (BMR, TDEE, activity adjustments)
Progressive meal expansion plan tailored to your lifestyle
Movement integration guidance
Flexible eating templates and portion guides
Email support throughout Phase 2
The result: You walk away with a framework you can use for life—not just another diet you'll eventually abandon.
