Deborah Brazendale

Healthspan Coach

Did you know that the average lifespan for women in Scotland is 84, but her average healthspan is just 62?

Lifespan is how long you live. Healthspan is how well you live.

We're living longer, but we're not in good health

The average woman in the UK will spend 22.5 years at the end of her life in poor health. Most of us haven't been taught that this is not inevitable - OR how to prevent it.

I'm Deborah, a Mayo Clinic qualified healthspan coach. I work with women who've been taking care of everything except their future health.

The good news? It is never too late to make a positive impact. The evidence shows you can make a difference at any age and stage. But the longer you leave it, the less time you'll have to experience living well. So why wait?

Energy Audit + Consultation

Need a conversation more than a raw score?

My full Energy Audit looks at all four pillars - eat, sleep, move and play - in depth and, crucially, shows how they're each interacting.

It's followed by a personal consultation online where we go through your results together and identify the three highest-leverage changes you can make right now.
