From Behind the Pharmacy Counter to Your Corner

For 14 years, I worked as a pharmacy technician. I saw how powerful modern medicine can be—and how many women were still left exhausted, uncomfortable, and frustrated by symptoms that didn’t have easy answers. “Everything looks normal,” they were told. But nothing felt normal.

I’ve been there, too. Beyond tired. Dealing with GI issues and weight that wouldn’t budge. When I learned how food, hormones, and metabolism actually work together, everything changed. I took what I learned behind the counter and brought it into the kitchen—and the weight room.

Today, I help women balance hormones, rebuild energy, and feel fierce again. No shame. No extremes. Just real, sustainable results.

Gentle—But Empowered

Your body isn’t a problem to fix—it’s a partner to understand. My approach blends evidence‑informed nutrition, practical strength training, and lifestyle anchors like sleep and stress resilience. We start where you are, honor your season of life, and build habits you can sustain.

Core Principals:

  • Food should fuel your life, not control it

  • Strength is your metabolic superpower

  • Progress over perfection—always

  • Hormone‑smart, body‑kind strategies

  • Sustainable habits beat short‑term hacks

I Help Women Like You:

Balance hormones and feel steady again

Reboot your metabolism without extremes

Enjoy food that actually fuels you

Sleep deeper, recover faster, move better

Build strength and confidence that lasts
