We need your voice. Right now in Ontario, naturopathic doctors can prescribe vaginal and topical progesterone but NOT oral micronized progesterone (OMP), which is the gold standard recommended by menopause and women’s health specialists.

The College of Naturopaths of Ontario is asking for public feedback on whether NDs should be able to prescribe OMP. This simple change could mean better access, fewer delays, and more coordinated care.

If you've worked with an ND, your story matters. Write to the College before Monday, Sept 8 at 5pm EST and share how your ND has supported you, any challenges you’ve had accessing OMP, and why you believe NDs should be able to prescribe it. Even a two-line email can go a LONG way! If you need inspo, there's a link in my bio with a sample email with all the details.

And, if you're a practitioner reading this, your feedback is also being collected: go do this ASAP!

It’s not a willpower problem. It’s a systems problem.

If you're tired of starting over, falling off track, or wondering why eating well and exercising still isn’t working — it's time to stop blaming yourself.

Busy moms don’t need more motivation.

They need:

✔️ clinical assessment to rule out things like low iron, thyroid dysfunction, and hormonal shifts
✔️ a real-life strategy for movement, meals, and habits that fit their schedule
✔️ evidence-based support to change behaviours that actually stick — even during soccer season, back-to-school chaos, or sleepless nights

This is what I do every day with my patients.
As a naturopathic doctor, I use lab testing, diagnosis, and full-body evaluation to uncover what’s really going on — and then we build a sustainable care plan you can actually follow.

Because waiting until life slows down to prioritize your health?

Just means waiting until it gets harder.

Insulin resistance is a key driver of Metabolic dysfunction–Associated Fatty Liver Disease (MASLD), commonly known as fatty liver. It often goes unnoticed but can lead to fatigue, weight gain around the abdomen, and long-term liver damage if left unmanaged.

The good news: MASLD is reversible.

✔️ Engage in at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity most days
✔️ Reduce intake of added sugars and refined carbohydrates
✔️ Prioritize consistent, quality sleep (7–8 hours/night)

Even small, consistent changes can significantly improve liver health and insulin sensitivity.

You got an all clear but you still feel off.
You're tired all the time. Snappy over the smallest things and the scale hasn't budged in months. And don't even get started on the sleep or the cravings.
You're not broken. And you're definitely not alone.

The truth? Most moms are handed normal labs and sent on their way. No answers, no plans, just vibes.

And that's exactly why I created the Mom Reset System.

A 3- month coaching program built for real-life moms
👉🏼 nutrition that makes sense (with easy, quick recipes the kids will like)
👉🏼 fitness that fits your schedule
👉🏼 habits shifts that actually stick (and how to do it)
👉🏼 support for your energy, sleep, hormones and mood
👉🏼 weekly coaching to keep you going

It's time to stop guessing and start feeling like YOU again.

If you feel stuck—struggling with exhaustion, stubborn weight, or your hormones—you’re not alone.

A lot of moms are told, “Once your kids are older, your body will bounce back.” But for many, this doesn’t happen.

Instead, you might feel:

✔ Constantly tired, no matter how much sleep you get.
✔ Stuck at a weight that feels impossible to change.
✔ Trapped in cycles of cravings, stress eating, or feeling out of control.
✔ Moody or irritable, which spills into how you show up for your family.

Why does this happen?

Because after pregnancy, your body changes—and so do your hormones. These changes don’t automatically reset with time. What used to work (counting calories, cutting carbs, or random workouts) probably isn’t working now.

Here’s the truth: If your hormones aren't working for you, they’re holding you back. And when your hormones and metabolism are off, it doesn’t just affect your weight—it affects your energy, mood, and how you feel every single day.

But here’s the good news: You can feel like you again.
You don’t need restrictive diets or hours of workouts. You need a system designed for moms like you, whose lives are busy but who are ready to feel amazing again.

That’s why I created the Mom Reset System—a proven 3-month coaching program designed specifically for moms who want to:

✔ Regain energy and feel less exhausted.
✔ Fix their mood swings and cravings.
✔ Build fitness and nutrition habits that fit into their hectic lives.
✔ Finally reach a healthy, sustainable weight.

It’s about making small changes that work with your lifestyle, not against it. And it starts with learning how to reset your hormones and metabolism.

You don’t have to keep settling for feeling “blah.” If you’re ready to show up as your best self for your family and feel great in your own skin, let’s make it happen.

Don’t get caught up in the idea that you need to be perfect or go all-in all at once.

Progress doesn’t happen overnight—it’s those small, consistent steps that add up.

Whether it’s making a healthier choice today, getting in a quick workout, or simply giving yourself grace, every effort counts.

You’re not just working on your body, you’re showing your kids what resilience, self-love, and growth really look like. Keep going, even on the tough days.

You’ve got this, one step at a time. 💪

I’ll never forget the day she walked into my office. She was so done—exhausted, overwhelmed, and just burned out.

She had given birth during the pandemic, and still, years later, she still felt like she hadn’t caught up.

Her energy was at zero 🔋, her hormones were out of whack 🔄, and she just felt completely disconnected from herself.

She sat down and said, “I just want to feel like me again. I don’t even know who I am anymore.” 😞

I get it—so many moms like her, especially those who had their babies during the pandemic, have never really gotten a chance to reset.

Even though she knew what was healthy for her, she just couldn't implement it no matter how hard she tried. The stuff that worked before kids, was just not working now. And the constant schedule changes between kids dance lessons, hockey, daycare bugs 🦠 were constantly throwing her off track.

So, we put together a plan that made sense for her, and over time, she felt stronger, more energized, and like the mom she knew she could be. 🙌

But here’s the thing—it wasn’t just the physical changes that got her back to herself. It was how her confidence came back ✨. I watched her rediscover joy in the small moments—playing with her kids, chilling with her partner, even just eating a meal without feeling like a zombie.

After working with thousands of moms in my clinical practice, I knew moms needed a system and community to tackle these challenges.

That’s why I created the Mom Reset System—to help moms like her (and you) break free from exhaustion, hormones, and feeling stuck. It’s not about quick fixes or “hustle harder” advice, it’s about real, sustainable habits to help you feel your best—inside and out. 💯

I know what it’s like to be the mom who feels like she’s drowning in everything but herself. The mom who feels like there’s no time left for you because everyone else needs something. I see you and I want you to know—you don’t have to stay there.

Just like her, you can reset. You deserve to feel like yourself again. To have the energy, the balance, and the confidence to live your life without the burnout. 💥

Ready to hit the reset button? It’s time to start.

🎯 Struggling with your energy, mood, or weight even YEARS after having kids?

Here’s the tea: Your body changes after pregnancy, and no, it doesn’t “reset itself” with time.

You might feel:

🚩 Always tired, no matter how much you rest.
🚩 Stuck at a weight that won’t budge.
🚩 Cravings, stress eating, and moods all over the place.

Why? It’s not about willpower—it’s about your hormones.
Your hormones run the show when it comes to your energy, metabolism, and mood. And if they’re out of balance, no amount of dieting or random workouts will fix it.

But guess what? You can get back to feeling amazing.

✨ More energy.
✨ A metabolism that actually works with you.
✨ Weight you feel good at.

And no, it doesn’t mean cutting carbs or living in the gym. You just need the right system—one designed for moms like you, who are way too busy to mess around with things that don’t work.

That’s why I created the Mom Reset System. It’s helped tons of moms like you:

✅ Fix their energy.
✅ Balance their hormones.
✅ Feel good in their own skin again.

If you had pregnancy complications, such as gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, gestational hypertension (high blood pressure), small or large for gestational age baby, preterm or stillbirth, then part of your pregnancy & postpartum assessment should include an assessment of your cardiovascular disease risk ❤️❤️

Pregnancy acts like a mini stress test on the cardiovascular system. There's a clear link in the research between pregnancy complications & heart disease risk later in life. (https://doi.org/10.1161/JAHA.121.023079)

In my pregnancy assessments, I'm looking to reduce risk for you & baby. In my postpartum assessments, I'm following up by calculating your ASCVD risk.

And my menopausal patients are always surprised I ask them about their pregnancies...even if it was 20-30 years ago! It s matters 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Can't talk about this enough, I'm obsessed 😉
