Getting my DUTCH test results back was such an eye opener and it was soooo fun to nerd out over them!

It’s wild how much hormones can reflect the stress you’ve pushed through, the times you under-ate, or stayed in situations that kept you tense… speaking from experience.

This test reminded me how deeply connected everything is. That my nervous system, my food, my rest, and stress management all shape the way my body feels safe enough to function.

I don’t think that we have to chase perfect numbers at all, but learning your patterns, understanding what your body’s asking for, and meeting it with more compassion than control is the basis of hormone balance 🤍

If I could compile all the things that have betrayed my hormones… the list would probably be 10x longer 🤭

For now, here’s a few that really stand out to me & when I look back, I just think, “what was going on?”

Scar tissue, adhesions, & lesions are real, but here’s the truth: they’re a symptom, not the root issue.

Endometriosis isn’t just “bad cramps” that you can slap a bandaid on. It’s a complex hormonal and inflammatory condition that often goes misunderstood. And that’s why quick fixes like pain meds, pills, surgery, or temporary treatments only tell half the story. We are beyond lucky for the advancements that have been made in the world of endometriosis management, don’t get me wrong, but there’s so much more work to be done.

The real work is looking deeper: estrogen pathways, inflammation, gut health, and lifestyle patterns that might be silently fueling your symptoms. Healing endo means addressing the root causes, not just the scars.

Your body is trying to tell you something. Listening, supporting, and tackling the root causes is how lasting change happens.

After spending 6 years working on my own health (but let’s be real, that never actually comes to a stop) and another 3 working with clients, I’ve realized there are a few hills I’ll happily die on.

The kind of truths that only come from being deep in the work… the trial, the error, the “why isn’t this working?” moments.

In a world where we have endless access to information, it’s so easy to get caught up in the next trend or jump on the latest wellness bandwagon. We get overwhelmed, overstimulated, and convinced we’re missing something—when really, our nervous systems can’t handle living in that constant state of stress and comparison.

The truth is, healing requires slowing down. Getting curious. Doing the investigative work.
It’s not about doing more… it’s about understanding why, and then approaching that with knowledge and not fear.

Swipe through for 5 hills I’ll never come down from 🫡

Because “I want to have a baby” is so much different from “I’m ready to have a baby”✨

Truthfully, as much as I want to have kids like RIGHT NOW, I feel called to put that desire aside for a moment as I’ve come to realize that readiness > desire.

And not even physically ready — we all know I’m doing all the testing and nutritional prep work, like why wouldn’t I be? But being emotionally ready, having the right mindset, feeling mentally prepared, is a whole different ball park.

I would much rather wait, instead of rush and feel unprepared, unsure, unready. My health comes first and not in a selfish way but in a selfless way. In the type of way that although I want babies right now, I know their health depends on mine and if I can do anything to improve that while we wait I’ll take the time to do it.

I really have been practicing what I preach with my clients and I’ve come to realize this prep period is so so important. I am excited to integrate more of what I feel and learn into client sessions in the future.

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about preparing the space, not just in my home or my mind, but in my body.
When you’re getting ready to conceive, or just know that one day you want to, every small choice becomes an act of care.

Alcohol is one of those things that doesn’t quite fit in this chapter.

It can create oxidative stress that affects egg quality, disrupt the delicate dance of estrogen and detoxification, and deplete nutrients like magnesium and B vitamins that your hormones rely on.
It can make blood sugar and inflammation a little louder, and those are two things I’m always trying to keep steady.

But more than that, I want my nervous system to feel calm, safe, and deeply nourished before bringing life into the world.
And alcohol, even in small amounts, tends to pull me out of that rhythm.

So for now, I’m choosing clear-headed mornings, deeper sleep, and the knowing that this body is preparing for something sacred.
And since alcohol will be off the table during pregnancy anyway, I might as well get used to the peace that comes with saying no early.

This season is about intention, not perfection.
About honoring my body as it gets ready to create something new. 🤍

This is exactly why “test, don’t guess” matters.

PCOS isn’t one-size-fits-all, and sometimes it’s 16-OH driven rather than the more commonly discussed insulin or androgen pathways. That’s also why some of the classic supplements, while amazing, don’t always do the trick for every woman.

Understanding your unique hormone pathways = targeting the root cause, not just the symptoms.

Want a personalized plan that actually works for your hormones? I guide women through this step-by-step in my 1:1 membership: testing, interpreting, and creating a strategy that fits you, not the generic protocol✨

I used to think fabric didn’t really matter at all, but once I started paying attention to how certain clothes made me feel in my body, it made a huge shift for me. Natural fibers breathe better, they don’t trap heat or odors, and they support your nervous system in subtle but powerful ways.

Cotton, linen, wool, & silk are now what I look for when I’m reading garment tags in the store.

Your skin is your largest organ and what you wear touches it all day.

It’s one of the easiest shifts you can make to feel more grounded and regulated without overthinking it.

This doesn’t need to be stressful, you truthfully can easily work with what’s in your budget. Almost every store has natural fibre options you just need to take the time to look!

I’ve actually found I save more money this way because I buy fewer things and less $$$ marked up trendy items. Plus I take better care of the pieces I have knowing they can last a lifetime if I do. And even when I do spend more on a natural fiber item I feel way more justified doing it.

I don’t think we all need to dive right into the natural fibres, but, if you’ve been curious about it, this is your sign to look into this more! I seriously can’t stress enough the difference I feel after making the switch.

Add this to the list of the things we should’ve been taught in high school S*x Ed 📋

Why did no one tell us that our cervical mucus changes throughout our cycle and actually tells us something?!
⠀
This is one of the most useful signs we have to track ovulation, understand our hormones, and get a real-time view of our cycle health… but most of us grew up thinking discharge was just…gross.
⠀
Women don’t get taught that:
🌵 Dry can mean stress or low hormones, and that you are outside your fertile window
🍯 Sticky means estrogen is trying to rise
🧴 Creamy means you’re getting close to ovulation
🍳 Egg white = peak fertility
💧 Watery is also fertile, especially if it’s slippery
⠀
Instead, we were handed pads and fear tactics while the teacher showed us all the different contraceptive methods. As if we don’t have bodies that use natural processes to communicate with us.
⠀
This isn’t just about fertility either. It’s about knowing what’s normal for your body. And when you understand what your cervical mucus is doing, everything from cycle syncing to hormone balance to knowing when something’s off gets so much easier.
⠀
Honestly, I wish more women were taught how powerful this kind of body awareness is. It’s not weird. It’s not gross. It’s literally biology and it’s one of the most empowering things you can learn.

Tracking your cervical mucus is free, effective, and one of the first things I look at when helping clients rebalance their hormones. Start paying attention — you’ll learn more than you think.
