Who is it for
You might be here because
Dementia in your family
A family history has made you think about your own future and what you can do now.
APOE4 gene
You want to understand where APOE4 fits in the wider picture and what you can influence.
Slower thinking
Your mind feels a little less quick than it used to, and you want practical ways to support it.
Being proactive
You want to prioritise your cognitive health to help it support your life now and the years ahead.
How I help
Someone beside you, every step
Cognitive decline isn’t inevitable. Many factors that affect cognitive health are within your influence, whatever your age.
The hard part is starting with confidence and keeping going. Over six months of one-to-one support, you:
- Set your goals and understand where you stand today
- Know what matters, what to aim for and what can wait
- Fit changes into your week, one step at a time
- See your progress and adjust your plan as you go
You get clear explanations, answers when you need them and steady support along the way. Every decision stays yours.
How the program worksWhat the evidence shows
Genes are only part of the picture
Many factors work together to shape cognitive health. Some are inherited, such as APOE4 and other genetic variants. Genes matter, but they do not decide your future.
Others relate to your health, lifestyle and environment, including how you eat, sleep, move, manage stress and stay mentally and socially engaged. Many of these can be influenced.
Together, they point to practical ways to support your cognitive health and build cognitive reserve over time.
Lancet Commission · 2024
Modifiable risk factors
The Lancet Commission estimates that addressing 14 potentially modifiable risk factors could prevent or delay around 45% of dementia cases at a population level.

US POINTER Trial · 2025
Structured support
The US POINTER trial found greater improvement in overall cognition in the structured program than in the self-guided program, for APOE4 carriers and non-carriers alike.

What it's for
Your life now, and the years ahead
The outcome

The changes that last are the ones that fit your life.
The bigger why
To support the life you want to live — staying engaged in your work, interests, relationships and adventures.
Now, and in the years ahead.
About
Meet Rachel
My grandmother lived with Alzheimer’s disease. In my forties, after years of an unhealthy lifestyle and noticing changes in my own thinking, I began focusing on my cognitive health. I later learned that I carry APOE4, a gene that can influence cognition if you don’t know how to manage it.
Over time, I changed what I eat, how I sleep and move, my environment and my everyday routines. Those changes are now part of how I live.
I do this work because I know first-hand how hard it can be to believe so much is within our influence, then to work out what’s relevant, where to focus and how to act on it.
What began as a personal search became a deep interest, and eventually my work. You do not have to work it out on your own.
