Your journey, nourished and supported

Preconception ~ Pregnancy ~ Postpartum ~ Motherhood

Empowering modern mothers to nourish their bodies, reset their energy, and thrive through every season of motherhood.

Welcome Mama + Mama to be

Being pregnant, postpartum, or a busy mama trying to figure out the best foods and supplements can be exhausting—especially while juggling everything else!

I’m here to help you nourish your body with simple, delicious meals that support your hormones, boost your energy, and help you feel like yourself again

I’m Clodagh Thomas,
founder of Thrive and mother to Ella.

How can I help you?

  • Preconception

    By creating healthy habits prior to conceiving you set yourself up to thrive during pregnancy, post-partum and beyond motherhood

  • Pregnancy

    Nourishing each pregnancy is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity. Know how best to support your health and the development of your growing baby

  • Post-Partum

    When a baby is born, you are also born and you both need to be nurtured.

  • Baby Weaning

    Starting your baby on solids can be difficult. Let us help you feel confident to know how to nourish your baby now and into the future

  • The Thriving Mama

    This is for a mama who is barely surviving let alone thriving. She has very little energy, and has a general feeling of being unwell in her body. She knows food is medicine but doesn’t know where to start.

  • The Working Mama

    Helping mothers in the workplace thrive through the food they eat

“Clodagh has such a lovely, warm, empathetic demeanour which made working with her a pleasure. She put a great emphasis into educating me and giving me the knowledge that I could then stand on my own two feet once my program was finished with her.”

— Naomi, preconception

“Clodagh was such a dream to work with. She really dives in with you, listening in-depth to what issues you are struggling with and building a personally tailored program from there”

— Michelle, 22 weeks pregnant
