You don’t need more willpower. You need a better plan.
If cutting calories, going harder, or “just being disciplined” hasn’t worked, that’s because it doesn’t.
Rays of Light offers a new way forward: evidence-based health coaching to help you feel better, think clearer and live lighter — step by step.
Is This You?
You’re doing your best — but it still feels hard.
You might be:
- Battling sugar cravings or unpredictable blood sugar
- Carrying weight that just won’t shift
- Feeling tired, foggy or demotivated
- Frustrated that your body isn’t responding the way it used to
What to Expect
This isn’t about perfection. It’s about building something better.
When you join the Upbeat Health Coach community, you can expect:
Support, not judgment
Science that makes sense
Systems, not just willpower
Uplifting, empowering momentum

Hi, I'm Anna Lycett.
I’m a health coach with four years of experience — three in the NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme and recently also in governmental Adult Weight Management services. I’ve worked with hundreds of people to improve their health, lose weight and regain control of their blood sugar — with kindness, science and structure that actually works.
I combine evidence-based coaching with practical support, helping you create habits that stick — not just for a few weeks, but for life.

A breath of fresh air in your inbox — every week-ish.
Rays of Light is my “weekly-ish” email newsletter, written for people who want to improve weight, energy, blood sugar and wellbeing — gently, sustainably and with real-life in mind.
Each issue includes three of these five thoughtful elements, handpicked to support your week:
- Positively Practical – a real-world health tip
- Affirmation for Alignment – a phrase to ground and guide
- Words of Wisdom – a thought-provoking, motivational quote
- Intentional Introspection – a journalling prompt for self-awareness
- Tender Thoughts – a kind message to encourage you
