On this page we want to share with you what our Gutsy Courses are all about what has motivated us to create them and our plans for the future! If you have any questions, then please get in touch, we would love to hear from you.
WHAT’S SO GREAT ABOUT GUT HEALTH?
Gut Health is everywhere right now - on supermarket shelves, in books and on social media. And, whilst we LOVE that gut health is in the limelight, we are also concerned to see people promising quick fixes, fad diets, expensive supplements and tests as a route to better gut health. We believe gut health isn’t expensive or complicated, and for the most part, can be achieved with a few simple (and enjoyable!) lifestyle changes - and we are here to show you how!
We are on a mission to…
GET EVERYONE ON TRACK WITH THE TRUTH ABOUT GUT HEALTH
GET BACK TO THE ROOTS + CORE PRINCIPLES OF GUT HEALTH
OFFER PRACTICAL ADVICE AND TOOLS
CREATE COURSES THAT EVERYONE CAN BENEFIT FROM
HAVE A LASTING IMPACT ON YOUR HEALTH
GUT HEALTH IS FOR EVERYONE
Gut Health is not just for people who have gut issues like IBS or bloating.
Gut health is for all ages, it is important from the moment you are born (your gut is seeded with it’s first microbes from your mother!), and it is important in your old age too, as it’s involved in both your mental wellbeing and the normal functioning of your immune system.
Gut Health is not just about your digestive system - it also includes the health of your microbiome - the collection of trillions of microbes that live in your gut, which influence (amongst other things) your digestion, immune function and even your mood!
Gut health doesn’t even finish with you, we are interconnected to our external ecosystems - yes, even the soil under your feet has its own microbiome!

WHO ARE WE?
We are a dynamic gut health Duo who have had years of experience working in Health & Wellness
We are real people, with a real interest in this topic - we are not just selling you the latest supplement, or fad. We believe that gut health does not have to be expensive, complicated or involve expensive testing kits or supplements and we are here to show you how.
EXPERIENCE WITH CLIENTS
We have spent years working with clients; Laura in the NHS and private consulting, and Flora in private households and superyachts and running fermenting workshops. We have listened and learnt from people time and time again saying how they always have the best intentions but never find the time, or the motivation to make the change.
We’re also realists. We know you are busy and your time is limited, so changes need to be simple and easy if you’re going to stick with them. We promise that everything we suggest is something we’ve tried and tested ourselves with success, and now we want to share our learnings with you.
ONLINE COURSE ADVOCATES
We are big fans of the online course, and we appreciate the power they have for change.
We decided to create an online course rather than a book or run workshops - because we appreciated that people have busy lives and they want to make a lasting change to their health, and we believe that through online courses - we can teach and explain through a range or mediums and provide handouts and information that our students can have to hand.
Our online courses are all about bringing all our expertise on not just gut health, but behavioural change to life.
EXPERT CONTRIBUTORS
It’s also not just the two of us. Flora & Laura plan to bring together contributors to talk and teach about their expert topics - paediatricians, immunologists, environmentalists, psychologists, fermenters - we are a community and we have so much to share!

HOW WE DELIVER
Do you have some great intentions about making a change, buy all the self help books, sign up to all the newsletters and then never do the work? Yup, same!
We have been there, and we understand how busy lives work.
We are two busy individuals who know about the continuous juggle of work life commitments and children.
Which is why our courses are self-paced, with life-time access
… and we keep it entertaining, by delivering our content through various different mediums - from podcasts to online lectures, toolkits and our facebook community, we’re here to make the learning process fun, and easy.
