Natassja Campbell
Hi, I’m Natassja, founder of Drop the Beet.
I support people in reducing stress, managing inflammation, and building sustainable, healthy habits through food, connection, and cultivating mind–body balance.With a background as a plant-based chef, holistic health coach, and breathwork instructor, I design immersive workshops that bring together the science of gut health with the art of mindful living. I believe that food, connection, and mindfulness are the foundations of well-being. Through Drop the Beet, I highlight how gut health and the body’s stress response are deeply interconnected, shaping inflammation, focus, energy, and resilience.
My sessions are interactive, engaging experiences that leave people feeling calmer, more connected, and empowered with lasting strategies to thrive in every aspect of life.

Dr Louise Oliver
Hi, I’m Dr Louise Oliver, a GP, Functional Breathing Practitioner, and Therapeutic Life Coach.
When I became a perimenopausal snorer, I realised that my 24-hour breathing was inefficient. Once I improved my breathing efficiency, my snoring stopped, and my sleep, exercise tolerance, and stress resilience all improved.
Now, I split my time between working as a GP and as a Functional Breathing Practitioner, teaching others how to breathe more efficiently.
I offer a group coaching programme and 1:1 coaching to help people to breathe into a healthier and happier life.

Uplifting!
'“The day was uplifting, informative and nourishing in every sense of the word. All in such a beautiful setting. I have my lovely notebook, which I am adding to daily and trying to incorporate the exercises into my daily life.
Louise and Tash together facilitated a perfect balance of information, discussion, exercises, timings, food and refreshments.
Their attention to detail, including everyone's emotional and physical needs were sensitively catered for.
