The ovaries have their own ecosystem!! 🤯

This study out of UC San Francisco has the potential to change everything…

For years we’ve been told that fertility and menopause is ruled by egg quantity and quality, and that a decline in our natural fertility is directly linked to a decline in our egg production.
But, this latest study shows us something that goes beyond the numbers game- something magical ✨

➡️ The o***y itself actually behaves like a living ecosystem.

This falls in line with what Chinese Medicine has always known- fertility and the health of the reproductive system is dependent on more that just a ‘poor egg count’. It’s all about the unique ecosystem of the o***y itself and the environment - this includes:
• Cellular health
• Mitochondrial health
• Nervous system
• Blood Flow/ circulation
• Inflammation levels
• Surrounding connective tissues
• Immune cells

In short- any change to the o***y’s environment will affect the balance of that ecosystem and can cause a drop in fertility- regardless of the number of eggs you still have.

So, if you want to dive deeper into this and learn more about how to nourish this incredible ecosystem naturally using acupuncture and herbs and the wisdom of TCM- head to my bio to explore the different ways we can work together in- person and online.

➡️ On a mission to better understand (and increase) your fertility? DM me the word ‘SANCTUARY’ to sign up to my exclusive community ‘The Fertility Sanctuary’ to get access to my resources, professional support and real answers to your questions.

Also, If anyone is interested in the link to the study- DM me the word ‘STUDY’ and i’ll send it over.

After more than 25 years of helping women call babies into their lives- one thing is clear to me:

Trying to conceive can be an incredibly overwhelming and lonely experience.

I’ve seen endless women struggle in silence, and walk through my doors carrying the emotional weight of the experience. All the conflicting advice, information overload, endless researching and Googling.

Women are exhausted, and so many of my patients were still coming to me with questions, and concerns outside of their appointment with me in the acupuncture clinic. It’s become evident that women need, and deserve, a hand to hold that goes beyond the time they spend on my treatment table.

I knew I had to create something different…

That’s why I’ve been pouring my heart into creating The Fertility Sanctuary 💜

A safe, supportive community that you can be a part of, so that you don’t have to carry the weight of this journey by yourself.

Send me a DM with the word ‘COMMUNITY’ to join me- I can’t wait to see you inside! ✨✨✨

💜World Menopause Day 💜

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) this time of a woman’s life isn’t about focusing on loss or decline, but the opportunity for transformation. It’s known as the ‘Second Spring’, and there is so much abundance and beauty to be found here 🌸

Yes, frustrating symptoms like hot flushes, night sweats and mood shifts can make you feel like you’re body has changed so much that it’s hard to recognise yourself… The struggle of adjusting to these changes and feeling like you have no control over them can be really tough for many women.

But please know this- you are not losing yourself.

Your body needs some extra support and nourishment, but it doesn’t mean that your life is over. Far from it. It’s a time for letting go, for allowing the transition to unlock a new season of growth 🪷

Acupuncture, herbal medicine and gentle lifestyle changes are some of the holistic tools that we can use to help your body adjust to this transition, and help you to feel like YOU again 💜

Just affordable, expert guidance at your fingertips…And it could be the missing piece you’re looking for.

💜After more than 25 years of working with women as a doula, acupuncturist and integrative fertility specialist, I’ve seen first hand how heavy the journey to becoming a mom can be, and how exhausted women are...

For years I’ve seen women walk through my clinic doors carrying the emotional weight of all the tests, fertility appointments, endless Googling, unsolicited advice from well-meaning people, and the repeated heartbreak of negative pregnancy tests 💔

Over the years, one thing has stood out to me- these women need support that goes beyond my clinic hours, and continues once they’ve left their appointment.

I also believe that professional fertility guidance shouldn’t only be available to those that come into my private clinic- women all around the world deserve to benefit from high level expertise and experience. And beyond that, they deserve to have the community support that all women are fundamentally programmed to experience….

So, I created something different. Something that’s always available to you, outside of my clinic walls. Support and expert fertility guidance- at your fingertips.

As of TODAY, the doors to ‘The Fertility Sanctuary’ are officially open for you to join 🎉

This is a community designed to take the overwhelm and confusion out of TTC, and replace it with:

✨ Direct access to me, and my 25 years of experience- plus guest features from other leading experts.

✨Practical, doable fertility tips you can start implementing right away

✨ An extensive online resource centre that brings you the best of my experience and research

✨Weekly Q&As with me, so you’re never left wondering

✨A safe place to connect with other women who truly understand this journey

This isn’t a course, or another forum full of panic and conflicting advice. It’s real, ongoing support from someone that has walked with thousands of women on this path.

➡️ To join, you can click the link under my bio

As well as receiving my free eBook, you also get 2 weeks of membership completely free- so what have you got to lose? 💜

Boosting your fertility doesn’t need to be complicated.

Something as simple as taking 10-15 minutes a day to lay on the floor with your legs up against a wall could make a difference.

Sometimes it’s the small, consistent rituals that we make a part of our everyday that have the biggest impact- especially when it comes to preparing your body for pregnancy 💜

Here’s why this one is worthwhile:

✨This position encourages blood flow to the uterus and ovaries, supporting healthy circulation in your reproductive system.

✨It calms the nervous system which helps lower the stress and cortisol that can interfere with hormone balance, and regulates the vagus nerve.

✨Lowers blood pressure

✨Promotes lymphatic drainage

✨It gives you a built-in pause in your day - a few minutes of intentional rest and self-care to support your body and mind.

If you want more bite-sized fertility tips you can trust, why not join me inside my new membership hub- ‘The Fertility Sanctuary’. This is for you if you’re looking for a safe, supportive space where expert knowledge meets community support, and overwhelm is left at the door.

➡️ You can find the link to join the community in my bio, and if you want to find out more just drop me a message, or comment below 💜

Fall is here to remind us that it’s okay to slow down, to let go and to re-set 🍂

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, this is the season where we begin to turn our attention inwards. Where we begin the process of letting go of the things that no longer serve us and make space for new growth and renewal 🌱

It can also bring strong emotions associated with grief, loss and longing to the surface- but that’s part of the process.

There can’t be light without darkness 🌒

There can’t be Yang without Yin ☯️

We can’t bloom if we do not rest 🌸

In Chinese Medicine, Blood is what nourishes you body, anchors your mind, and creates a foundation for fertility.

If you’re noticing signs like light periods, fatigue, poor sleep or difficulty conceiving- you could be experiencing Blood deficiency.

The good news is there are ways to rebuild and restore Blood. From acupuncture and herbs, to nourishing foods and simple lifestyle shifts. Your body can be gently supported back into balance.

Send me a message if you’d like some more guidance, and head to my bio to sign up for my exclusive fertility support hub ‘The Fertility Sanctuary’- where you will find more tips and insight into how to prepare your body for pregnancy and what to do if you feel like you’re struggling with symptoms of deficiency 💜

For 25 years, I’ve sat with women through the late-night panic… texting me about their confusing test results, and the endless “Is this normal?” questions.
But it just wasn’t enough- I can only be available to a limited number of women, and I knew that too many were still being left to navigate this journey alone.

This is why I created The Fertility Sanctuary.

No more Dr. Google. No more guess work.

Just you, me, and a circle of women who truly understand this journey — all just a click away.

Here’s why this is different from everything else out there:

As a Fellow of ABORM (the highest credential in reproductive acupuncture) who’s helped thousands of families grow, I know what works.
I know the difference between evidence-based TCM protocols and internet myths. I know how to integrate ancient wisdom with modern fertility treatments.
Most importantly, I know that women on the fertility journey need more than medical information. You need a place where you can be honest about the grief, the fear, the frustration, and the hope - without judgment, without toxic positivity, without being told to ‘just relax’…

💡 Same-day expert answers from me & my clinical team
💡 Weekly live Q&As
💡 TCM-based protocols + nutrition resources I use in my clinic
💡 Practical, doable fertility tips (no overwhelm, no fluff)
💡 Daily emotional support + a safe space where you don’t have to explain yourself

✨ And here’s the best part: when you join the waitlist today, you’ll also get instant access to my ebook ‘Ancient Secrets To Modern Conception Success’. Inside, you’ll take a TCM self-assessment quiz that will unlock personalized fertility protocols the moment you step into the community!

Doors open OCTOBER 14th- so claim your spot as a founding member so can give you the attention and support you deserve 💜
