Jamie Lawlor

Director and Co-Founder of VY Nutrition

In my experience working with people from all walks of life, nutrition has been foundational to good health, happiness and high performance. Nutrition is often the difference-maker for people who work hard, whether at home, in the office or on the sports field.

At the same time, our relationship with food tends to be very personal, often complicated, and positive change is rarely straightforward. Having the support of a coach who understands these challenges and has the tools to guide you forward can be life-changing.

At the heart of VY is an intention to combine nutritional science and expertise with world-class, compassionate coaching.

Sarah McGrath

Director and Co-Founder of VY Nutrition

Embarking on the journey of setting up VY is a truly personal one. I have always had a passion for nutrition which led me to seek out an understanding of how food can impact your mind and body. It’s a gift to yourself when you invest your time in making real habitual changes to your lifestyle and nutrition. The journey requires an open mind and an understanding that we are human. It takes time and focus, but I assure you it is the best investment you will make.

The coaches at VY understand the rollercoaster that comes with change, especially with nutrition, as our nutrition habits form in our infant years. We cater to those who need intense support and to those to need some guidance and ideas. No task is too big or small.
