From Redundancy to Purpose: Sukhi Gill’s Journey into Nutrition Coaching

In this episode of Founders Future, with host Olivia Sammons, we’re joined by Sukhi Gill, founder of Sukhi Gill Nutrition, a nutrition coach dedicated to helping midlife women navigate hormonal changes, rebalance their health, and regain energy through personalized, science-led nutrition strategies. Sukhi shares how her passion for health and wellbeing began during her university years and eventually led to a career in healthcare, where she spent over 15 years working in various roles. After being made redundant during the COVID-19 pandemic, she took the opportunity to reevaluate her path and return to her original passion—nutrition. Her personal experience navigating perimenopause became a defining moment that inspired her to launch her own coaching practice and help other women who were struggling with similar challenges.Sukhi explains how her coaching approach focuses on understanding each client’s unique lifestyle, habits, and health history to create sustainable changes rather than quick fixes. Through discovery calls, personalized consultations, food diaries, and ongoing support, she works closely with clients to uncover the root causes behind symptoms and guide them toward long-term wellbeing. Currently balancing her coaching business alongside teaching food and nutrition at a secondary school, Sukhi shares her vision for expanding her impact in the coming years by introducing group programs, community-based support models, and automated systems that will allow her to reach and help more women while maintaining the quality and personalization of her coaching.
