PSA 🗣️
Ladies listen to your bodies. No one knows it better than you do.

Last year I was having some cycle changes. Assumed it was my hormones changing (we know what assuming does) 🙃

Symptoms were much better once I started some Progesterone (helps with mood, sleep and heavy bleeding) so I didn’t think an endometrial biopsy was necessary.

I’m a big “stay in your lane” provider and boy I’m glad I did. Turns out I have an endometrial polyp and will be having that removed and an endometrial ablation.

Moral of the story. Listen to your body. Changes may not be “normal”. Find a provider who knows their stuff and will listen to you. 🫶

Healing your relationship with your body and food looks like:
❣️ Realizing you can’t change genetics.
❣️ Recognizing food as fuel. It’s not a moral issue. Food is neither “good” or “bad”.
❣️ Acknowledging deprivation and punishment in terms of diet and exercise never got you anywhere. In fact it wrecked your mental health.
❣️ Distancing yourself from who voice criticism to your looks
❣️ Relishing in the idea that you are meant to be majestic AND take up space!
❣️ Knowing how you look is the least important thing about you.

With love from the girl who feels better in size 12 jeans than I ever did in a size 2! 🫶💓 Don’t be an as***le to yourself, ok? Xoxo, D

It’s been awhile and there’s some new lovely faces here!

User of all the emoji’s because I lived through the Lisa Frank era of the 90’s! 🦄🦋🐬 🦓

Turning 40 this year was my favorite. 🎂 Next to my family. My friends. My husband. My kids. Oh, and our pets!

I’m from Vermont. So thankful I grew up surrounded by the simple joys of life and natural beauty. ⛰️ 🍂

I lost myself as a nurse and a mother about 7 years ago ago. I realized being an as***le to myself was no longer acceptable. 💡

I started to be better at setting boundaries and breaking up with hustle culture. 👋

3 years ago I was diagnosed with ADHD and Binge Eating Disorder. From restrictive eating/impulsive exercising as a teen after my Mom died, to binge eating/drinking during the pandemic as an urgent care NP…the universe told me I had to do the work and heal. I couldn’t carry on like this.

I am an open book. I don’t gatekeep. If you’re looking for a compassionate NP who believes in medical weight loss and customized hormone replacement therapy, I’m here to walk that journey with you! Here’s to new chapters! 📖 ✨

Turning 40 this year really hit home. I am truly thankful. I believe growing older is a blessing denied to many. And honestly, most of my life I didn’t think I would see 40, because my dear Momma never did. 🦋 ✨

But dang I realized being exhausted, cold, and bitchy wasn’t me. I didn’t want to walk into this new chapter not feeling like myself. I reached out to an NP friend who listened to me and didn’t make me feel “crazy” and I started BHRT (bioidentical hormone replacement therapy). Talk about a comeback! 💡 ⚡️

I’ve been behind the scenes treating some of my current weight loss patients with BHRT and it’s been such a gift hearing their amazing responses to BHRT! I’ll keep things here PG rated 🫡 but if you’re ready to feel like yourself again, and live life with more vitality- I’ll be opening new BHRT appointments oh so soon! 🗓️

This is such powerful and helpful information to have! It's important to acknowledge neurodiversity and the challenges it can present. Myself included! 😀

Managing weight can be a challenge for anyone, but if you have ADHD, it might feel even tougher. From impulsive eating to struggles with routine and focus, A...

My private practice is 2 years old! 2️⃣ 🧁 🎈

There’s been a lot tears, could-a, would-a, and should-a’s. I am so glad I didn’t give up when doubt crept in. There’s been so many more happy tears, growth, and improved mental and physical health for our crew than I ever could have imagined. 🥰

Year 3 will be nothing short of amazing! 🥳

My current patients know, but this is why I am no longer prescribing compounded GLP-1 RA meds 🫶.

April 2025 is going to be one for the books! 🤭

I am still shook over this incredibly thoughtful handmade gift shared with me last month. 🥹 🥰

Cheers to a New Year and new blessings! 🤗
