About Dr Sophie Lester
Her was founded by Dr Sophie Lester (RNutr), an AfN Registered Nutritionist, university lecturer, researcher, and published academic dedicated to transforming women’s health.
Sophie’s passion for supporting women was born from her own 15-year painful journey to receive a diagnosis and care for endometriosis, a personal experience that uncovered just how overlooked women’s health can be.
Having lived through chronic pain, fatigue, and the frustration of unanswered questions, Sophie turned to nutrition and lifestyle changes to support herself. Sophie understands more than most the physical and emotional toll that many women can silently carry.
Through her own research and lived-experience, Sophie combines cutting-edge science with compassion to offer practical, meaningful support, empowering women to better understand their bodies, improve their wellbeing, and feel truly at home in themselves.

Sophie's biggest love is old music, even having taken herself solo to see artists such as The Rolling Stones.
