Snippets of life lately 🌸💛

Here’s what I mean 👇🏼🌼

I think there is something missing in the longevity space.

We’ve forgotten that our biology & mitochondria are not built for constant output. Cycles of work and rest are natural.

In honour of international women’s day I’ll say it loudly:

I think we forgot to value the feminine.
We forgot that recovery is a non-negotiable.
We forgot how to tap into our body’s natural rhythms. We forgot the answer lives within us.

Have we truly integrated optimization with recovery?

Stillness is an important nutrient.

Learning to “be” in the moment is an important skill.

One of the best things I did for my health was embodying the art of being & making space to breathe for a hot minute.

Space to create from. Not space to produce from.

That was more powerful than any supplement stack for me.

Unexpected lessons from the ice:

The body is a living, breathing system. Not a machine.

Healing happened when rest was valued as much as effort.

Sometimes it takes just one person to look at the puzzle from a different perspective to see where the imbalances are 💛

When people ask me what I do for work?

Instead of naturopathic doctor. I’m going to answer with…

I give women permission to trust their body’s again.

Trusting your body, your intuition and your emotions are all key to healing. Creating safety in the nervous system is as foundational as soil to a plant.

So often women want to “fix” their hormones. We can chase estrogen, testosterone and progesterone around with a stick all we want.
But the hard truth is often cortisol & the nervous system are underneath it driving the dysfunction.

What I hear often is a longing to understand our bodies again & a craving for stability to function in this world.

So let me say it a bit louder. Nervous system work is the foundation 💙

🌙🪻FREE WORKSHOP TIME🪻🌙

Just like blood pressure & heart rate - our cycles are a vial sign. They are our body’s inner compass. And honestly I’m tired of women not having access to this wisdom.

When were you ever taught about your cycle, ovulation, your body or your ever shifting hormones?

So often we see women in their 20’s and 30’s who are disconnected from their body & their rhythm. They were never taught how to connect with it in the first place.

Dr. Sam and myself are here to change that.

Join us this Sunday Sept 7th 430pm for a cozy evening chat. Sponsored by the one and only coming in with some free swag!

🔗 Spaces are limited. Registration link in bio.

Can’t wait to see you there!
