Heart and Brain Health forWomen Over 50
Helping women in their 50s prevent stroke, heart disease and memory loss and achieve a healthy weight through sustainable lifestyle changes
Hi, I’m Christine Okafor-Mawdsley
I help women in their 50s improve their heart and brain health so that they can enjoy more energy, a sharper memory, and a longer, healthier life.
Are you a woman in your 50s and experiencing any of the following?
Difficulty losing weight or keeping it off
Struggling with memory loss and forgetfulness that’s getting worse over time
Brain fog, trouble focusing, or feeling mentally sluggish during the day
Constant low energy or daily fatigue
High blood pressure
High cholesterol
Type 2 diabetes
I can help.
As a woman in my 50s and after reversing my own prediabetes, high cholesterol, and early-stage kidney disease, I became passionate about helping others take control of their health before things get serious.
My approach blends lifestyle changes with down-to-earth coaching. Together, we focus on small, meaningful changes that help you:
Lose weight in ways that support both your heart and brain health
Naturally balance your blood sugar levels
Boost your focus, memory, and energy
Lower your long-term risk of stroke, heart disease, and vascular dementia - the second most common form of dementia
I work 1:1 with you in a personalised programme designed to transform your health not just for the duration of the programme, but with tools you can use for rest of your life.
If a parent’s stroke, heart attack, or memory decline has you wondering what lies ahead for you, you don’t have to follow the same path. I’ll help you change the story
Together, we’ll build a plan that supports your heart, sharpens your mind, and gives you peace of mind.
As a pharmacist turned Health Coach, I bring over 30 years of healthcare experience, combining science-backed knowledge with a passion for helping people improve their heart and brain health. This unique background allows me to offer a holistic, personalised approach to long-term wellness.
Through my coaching, I’ll guide you in adopting smart, sustainable habits that support your health goals so you can thrive well into the future.
Let’s work together to reduce your risk, restore your energy, and help you live your healthiest, longest life.

Feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or not sleeping well, and unsure how it’s affecting your health?
If any of these sound familiar, I understand how frustrating and overwhelming it can be and I’m here to help you take back control of your health.

That possibility is real. With simple, sustainable lifestyle changes, you can prevent or slow the progression of serious conditions like stroke, vascular dementia, and heart disease

memory loss, and letting go of fear about the future.

charge of your future.

Why Work with a Weight Management Coach for Heart and Brain ?
Improving your health isn’t just about losing weight or following the latest diet. It's about losing weight sustainably and protecting what matters most, your brain and heart through meaningful, science-based lifestyle changes.
Many people are told to “eat better” or “move more,” but they’re left without the support or understanding of how to do that in a way that fits their real life, medical needs, and emotional wellbeing. That’s where I come in.
As a Health Coach and experienced pharmacist who reversed my own chronic conditions, I help women over 50 protect their heart and brain health through personalised, evidence-based support and practical lifestyle coaching.”
Together, we’ll create a practical, sustainable plan around:
🥦 Nutrition that supports your brain, blood vessels, and blood sugar
🧘 Stress management to protect your heart and cognitive health
🚶 Movement that fits your ability and energises your body
😴 Sleep and daily habits that promote healing and resilience
Whether you’re living with or at risk of:
Stroke or vascular dementia
Heart disease, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol
…you don’t have to navigate it alone.
Medication can help manage symptoms, but lifestyle changes are what truly change the trajectory of your long-term health.
Let me help you feel empowered, informed, and supported as you work toward a healthier, longer, more vibrant life.
