II believe women in their 40s, 50s and beyond should not be expected to accept constant fatigue, brain fog, discomfort or feeling unlike themselves as the inevitable price of getting older.

Many women reach these years discouraged by the changes happening in their bodies. When the strategies that once worked stop working, it is easy to wonder whether their best years are behind them. Personally, I do not believe that for a second!

These years can feel like a second adolescence at times. Your body is changing, but so are your roles, relationships and sense of identity. Children grow up and leave home. Friendships evolve. Some marriages change or end. The responsibilities that shaped your life for decades may no longer define it in the same way.

There can be grief and uncertainty in that transition, but there can also be confidence, freedom and a powerful return to yourself.

For many women, this is the first time in years that they have the space to consider their own needs. That realization can be confronting, especially after decades spent caring for everyone else. It can also mark the beginning of something deeply restorative.

I believe the way we think about ageing influences how we experience it. When we accept decline as inevitable, we may stop asking what is still possible, and I refuse to begin from that assumption.

This can be a time to understand your body more deeply, reconnect with parts of yourself that have been set aside and make informed choices about the decades ahead. This is an incredible opportunity to become stronger, clearer, more grounded and fully yourself.

My work reflects this philosophy.

In addition to my private practice, as mentioned above, I am the Educational Director for the NutraPhoria Integrative Health Institute, home of two of the top Holistic Nutrition Coach and Holistic Nutritionist diploma programs that attract hundreds of students each year from all over the world.

​I entered the alternative health & wellness field over two decades ago, and have had a successful private practice for 20 years, but before that I admittedly was lost and utterly clueless when it came to food and health in general.   I struggled with food issues, health issues, trauma, and weight for years.  

I became increasingly determined to find the answer and to reconnect my mind/body/spirit. 
​
The conventional health care system was incredibly frustrating, and I found myself seeking alternative options. 

To my surprise at the time, the holistic health industry had the answers I was looking for.  Back then, it wasn't as mainstream as it is now.  It required me to reject the widely accepted, misleading notion that health is simply a combination of symptoms and treatments, and embrace the idea that our bodies have the innate ability to heal.  Given the right tools and support, of course. Once I went down that rabbit hole, there was no going back.  

Holistic-focused living is a path to health that prioritizes balance, empowerment, and true healing.
