OK LOOK, as someone who does use an Oura ring and loves her electrolyte powders, I am the last one to judge. So there is no judgement here. BUT I can pick a bone with things that promote outsourcing healing instead of fixing FOUNDATIONAL factors (food, minerals, stress, circadian rhythm). Why are we just trying to override the body instead of actually figuring out whats wrong?????

I spent YEARS, I’m telling you, YEARS of my life with “unexplainable” acne and I can promise you that adding in a trendy supplement or biohack did ZILCH for my skin.

If you find something that helps, great, but there is a very big difference in the long term reward you gain between masking symptoms and using legit root cause approaches.

No one wants their hormones to say “:(“. I use to follow a lot of these… fads? I guess that’s what you could call them. And I can tell you one thing, I feel 200% better now than I did back then. The one that stands out to me the most is low fibre & bean 🫘 fear. I probably didn’t eat anything bean related for 5ish years because I was terrified of the carb content and I believed it was causing my acne. 😶

I try to incorporate fibrous foods multiple times through the day now! Whether it’s veggies, grains, beans, legumes, fruit etc.

The problem is that we take diet recommendations too far. “Eat more meat!” gets misinterpreted into “Go Carnivore!” and we begin to forget about foundational whole foods that complement a diet that incorporates more meat.

“Drink more water!” gets misinterpreted as “Drink 5 gallons of water a day or die.” and then you’re spending half the day in the bathroom and your kidneys are begging for a break and maybe some electrolytes.

These are foundational areas that I address with clients to support regular cycles, strong ovulation, balanced nervous system, and the HPO (hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian) axis.

Even low-moderate alcohol intake has been associated with a reduced chance of conception per cycle.

In one prospective study,
- Non-drinkers: ~41% chance of conceiving
- Moderate drinkers: ~32%
- Heavy drinkers: ~27%

Some research shows decreased pregnancy rates starting as low as 4-7 drinks/week.

THC has been shown to interfere with normal egg development (meiosis) and increasing risk of chromosomal abnormalities in embryos.
This can potentially affect:
- Fertilization
- Embryo quality
- Miscarriage risk

Lifestyle factors like alcohol are consistently identified as modifiable contributors to subfertility.

Don’t forget that this also applies to men.

Alcohol and cannabis are linked to:
- Lower testosterone
- Reduced s***m count
- Poor s***m morphology (shape)
- Decreased motility (movement)
- Disrupted s***m function (ability to reach and fertilize the egg)

You can’t build a healthy pregnancy on conflicting inputs. And this goes for both people in the equation.

If you’re struggling with your fertility, you know that you have all my love and support. I am always rooting for you. As a practitioner in clinical practice, this is a hard truth that I often enforce with clients.

My stool test looked at how well my gut is supporting immune balance, barrier function, and microbial output before pregnancy. These were the main findings and what I’m working on:

🧬Low SCFAs (butyrate, acetate, propionate): needed for gut lining support and stool formation. I’ll be focusing on gentle fermentable fibers to increase bacterial output.

🛡️Low Akkermansia + Faecalibacterium: key bacteria for mucus layer and inflammation control. I’ll be prioritizing foods that support gut barrier and microbial balance

🧪Borderline mucus degradation, LPS, and hydrogen sulfide: suggests mild barrier stress. I’ll be supporting gut lining and reducing irritation rather than using antimicrobials.

🦠Mild shifts in E. coli, Streptococcus, Proteobacteria, and methane: can affect fermentation and bile handling. I’ll be focusing on restoring balance instead of “kill” protocols. There are also lots of natural antimicrobial properties in culinary herbs.

🍽️Bile acid pattern (unconjugated high-normal, secondary low-normal): suggests microbial disruption of bile. I’ll work on stabilizing fermentation rather than adding more bile (because when I did try that it didn’t work!)

🔋Low vitamin K and low urolithin producers: reduced microbial nutrient contribution. By improving microbial function I’ll support nutrient availability.

Focus before pregnancy: rebuild beneficial bacteria, increase SCFA production, support the mucus layer, and stabilize stool and fermentation.

I don’t think a stool test is necessary by any means, but I think it is helpful and an absolutely amazing tool to utilize.

I think that we often tend to overlook the simple things that we can do daily to support our nervous system and feel more present. And a lot of times we don’t always need fancy gadgets (and believe me, I DO love a fancy gadget).

One of my goals this year has been to spend less time on my phone or computer and to find things that make me feel excited, but also relaxed and present. I definitely have spent a large portion of my time with a screen in my face and when I look back at that, it’s no surprise I struggle with ADHD and searches for quick dopamine fixes.

When you have your own business, pretty well almost everything you do requires a computer or a phone, at least in my case it does. For a long time, my default relaxation technique was scrolling, which we all know is not actually relaxing…have you seen the stuff going on on social media lately?

If you find this relatable, take this as an opportunity to reflect and move forward and search for activities that bring you joy, and happiness, and peace. Sometimes even the most mundane of activities – like cooking dinner – can be enough to restore the nervous system and make the body feel like it can rest.

I hope you have a good day ♥️

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.
