Hello, I’m Philippa
If you’re tired in a way sleep doesn’t fix, foggy when you used to be sharp, or quietly wondering what the next chapter is actually for, you’re in the right place. I’m a proageing advocate, a recovering cynic, and the founder of Feel Fab Naturally. I help women in their fifties and sixties feel like themselves again, and I help the ones who are ready to build something of their own to do exactly that.
The short version
I spent my career in PR: curious, evidence-led and professionally hard to convince. Then midlife arrived with its own agenda. The energy dipped, the fog rolled in, and I spent a couple of years quietly looking for the woman I used to be.
I found her. Not by fighting my age, but by working with it. That’s what proageing means to me: not anti-anything, but for the years ahead and everything still in them.
These days I live in a lock keeper’s cottage on the border of Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire, with a husband, two rescue cats and a boat I’d choose over almost any room. I’m an empty nester who has lived in Colorado and Paris and travelled South America and South East Asia. I started building this business in my mid-fifties, which is to say at exactly the right age, because I finally knew who I was and what I wanted.

What I believe
This chapter can be the best one yet. Not despite your age, because of it. My whole approach sits on five foundations I call CHARM: Connection, Hydration, Activation, Relaxation and Movement. It’s my own five-part method for supporting healthspan, which means the years you live in good health rather than simply the years you live. Simple, kind, and built around how your body actually works now.
Why you can trust what I share
I’m sceptical about most of the wellness industry, so I understand if you are too. The difference here is evidence. When I write about how the midlife body works, I’m drawing on published, peer-reviewed science, and that matters to me every bit as much as it might to you. I’ll never push anything on anyone. I’d just rather you had the facts.
