About us
Welcome to ‘From Tired to Thriving’.
(WELLBEING SUPPORT COACH)
Hi, I’m Gay Rutherford.
I understand the discomfort of at times not feeling like oneself.
My passion for living through the heart came from surviving against the odds when I had nothing to lose. I wasn’t eligible for a suggested transplant. At the time this felt like a sudden set back due to being suppozedly healthy & fit with good diet and walking hills, but in hindsight I recognised many little warnings that I’d either not recognised, or ignored.
In life I moved from Early Childhood Head Teacher, to
extensively studying health and wellbeing through Christchurch College of
Natural Medicine, TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine & Acupuncture), ALCM
(American College of Lifestyle Medicine), Prekure, and e-Cornell (T. Colin
Campbell Nutrition), with HCANZA registration (Health Coaches Australia New
Zealand Assn).
How Can We help?
This isn’t about quick fixes – but gently transforming those ‘off’ feelings or emotions that have been holding you back. Learn to notice the quiet signals your body’s been sending as they quietly drain your energy, and affect everything from your choices and possibilities through to long-term health. Understand how these affect your thoughts, actions, and the direction of your life. Then learn to use that awareness to confidently shape your next chapter for the happiness and vibrant long-term health that you want.
Your Heart Holds the Key to a Worry-Free Future
Your heart is your life force and power house that will look after you if you look after it. Once you know how to do this, everything shifts because when the heart is calm there is no fear, which leaves you a peaceful, more confident path forward.
So discover your intuitive wisdom to create your future.
We want every session to feel supportive, aligned, and genuinely helpful, because this work is built on trust, care, and real results for the long term — not quick fixes or guesswork.
