In my high school years and through my early 20s, I experienced symptoms of hormone dysregulation, skin issues, and burnout through intense seasons of stress. The few times I went to the doctor, I was given a symptom-based treatment plan that never addressed why I was feeling the way I was. That gap — between what I was experiencing and the care offered to me — ignited a fierce curiosity to understand how our bodies work. After graduating from school as a Registered Nurse, I started my career as a labor and delivery nurse, and my affinity for natural health only grew from there. I dug into the world of health and wellness and found it overwhelming and conflicting, at times swinging between extremes of diet culture as I tried to navigate the noise. Over years of study and practice, learned how to work with my body, create sustainable habits, and support my health without obsessing over it.

Throughout my nursing career, I had the privilege of listening to the stories of many women. While each person is unique, I kept noticing a theme: women are hungry for answers to their health, yet many remain stuck in a cycle of burnout and frustrating symptoms. Those stories — from patients, friends, and acquaintances — fueled my desire to support women more holistically.

Since discovering it six years ago, fertility awareness has been profound in helping me heal my relationship with my body and understand its deep wisdom. I've learned from experience that the body never lies. It works in our best interest, even when it doesn't feel that way. Learning the language of my cycle, reading the rhythm of my hormone ebbs and flows — it helps me stay grounded in the present and tune inward with self-compassion. It's poetic, but also purposeful.

​

As women, our lives aren't static. We're constantly progressing through the cycles of womanhood: from menarche into our fertility years, then menopause and beyond. For women who are still ovulating and menstruating, fertility awareness can expand with us through the changing seasons of life: desires to understand and improve hormone health, wanting to avoid or achieve pregnancy, living in sync with the hormone dance within. It is all welcome.

These past few years, I've learned different methods of charting, dug into research studies, adapted charting to my own changing cycle, charted through different life seasons, completed two FAM instructor certifications, and worked one-on-one with clients. All of that raw, real, and messy experience has led me to now.
