The ceremony, held last Thursday at the Marker Hotel in Dublin, celebrated professionals who are shaping healthy habits and evidence-based dietary guidance across the country. Graham’s win marks a milestone not only for her career but also for the growing influence of women-led wellness voices in Ireland.
From The Menopause Nutrition Clinic to a National Spotlight
As the founder of The Menopause Nutrition Clinic, Graham has built a reputation for practical, science-backed nutrition strategies tailored to midlife women. Her work prioritizes balanced meal planning, symptom management, and sustainable lifestyle changes, rather than quick-fix dieting. The award recognizes her dedication to translating complex nutrition science into accessible advice that resonates with a broad audience.
Why the Jury Noticed Graham
Judges highlighted Graham’s approach to menopause and nutrition as both compassionate and evidence-based. Her clinic emphasizes individualized care, recognizing that no single diet fits every body. Through her writings, public speaking, and clinical practice, she has helped countless clients navigate hormonal shifts with nutrition as a central tool for wellbeing.
Author of Nourish and a Thoughtful Voice in Wellness
Graham is also the author of the widely discussed book Nourish, which explores how nutrition supports vitality during the menopausal transition. The book blends practical recipes with science-informed guidance on micronutrients, sleep, stress management, and physical activity. Readers have praised its clear tone and actionable steps that empower change rather than overwhelm readers with jargon.
