MY LIFE CHANGED WHEN I STOPPED TRYING TO
EAT AND EXERCISE 'PERFECTLY'

As a collegiate athlete, I felt the pressure to look a certain way: skinny and lean, but not too bulky. For years, I over-exercised, under-ate, and didn't love my body at all. Spiral after spiral, I knew I deep down that my lifestyle wasn't a good fit, I knew something needed to change. This led me to my relentless pursuit throughout my mid 20’s to achieving the desired yet intangible mind-body-spirit balance. You know, the ultimate trifecta that is supposed to help you attain inner peace and overall health? Well, I went through a lot, I made numerous mistakes, and studied thousands of hours of research material until I was able to create a solid balance. And now, I’m here to share this insight with you, so you don’t have to make the same mistakes I did. For more than a century, women have been advertised, educated, diagnosed, and treated as “small men”. In fact, clinical trials chose to omit women from their research until 1993. When I learned this, I realized that all the health, fitness, and nutrition programs out there were sourced form research that did not include women. Let that sink in for a hot minute. This makes total sense, because this explains why I struggled so much with every diet, cleanse, fitness challenge – I had ever tried. They felt completely counterintuitive because none of them were designed for my female physiology. This is when I decided to pivot. Not only my personal life, but my professional life too. I took an ovary oath to focus on female physiology, menstrual health, and intuition using my BSc in Human Nutrition and Diploma in Exercise Science. I mean, how accurate can these programs be if they the research that supports them is focused exclusively on men? This is when I decided to create a wellness platform that was 100% female-focused, using research that honoured the female body - instead of punishing it with diet fads and fitness trends. My life has never felt so aligned - body, mind & career - and we are just getting started! Join our community today!
