I consider myself very fortunate to have been raised in a home where health and wellness was a top priority. My mother was a Nutritionist and my parents founded a professional nutraceutical company. I was inspired by them to study Nutrition and ended up working in the functional medicine field as a consultant for nearly 10 years.
I used to be terrified of pregnancy and child birth, and thought I wouldn’t be able to have children due to these fears. About 5 years ago, I began educating myself on the topic of birth, diving into all of the research and information that I could get my hands on. I took various steps to prepare my body physically, mentally and emotionally leading up to and during both of my pregnancies, and ended up having two magical home-births. Since then, I have become obsessed with all things related to women’s health, pregnancy, birth & postpartum. My goal is to help empower women to take responsibility for their health and wellbeing during this wonderful time of their lives, in order to help them and their babies truly thrive.
I believe so deeply that the way we enter the world affects who we become in life. I also believe that women's birth experiences have a significant impact on their lives and the mother that they grow to become. I want to help women learn that birth can be positive, empowering, and life-changing. Birth can transform you in a way that you never knew was possible.
Many women do not realize that the majority of pregnancy complications can be prevented or even modified with optimal nutrition. My goal is to optimize the health of women in order to help them conceive, thrive in pregnancy, and to encourage positive birth outcomes & create magical birth experiences.
