Hi friend, I’m Rita 💛

A wife, mama to six, and a passionate advocate for women who are ready to stop settling for “normal” discomfort and start understanding their bodies.

Because I’ve been there.

I was stuck and frustrated.

Confused by what my body was telling me and no clue where to turn for help in my health journey.

Through my own struggle and frustration then ultimate healing I knew, I wanted to help others navigate their health journey.

I support women who want more than symptom management, more than pain being dismissed, cycles being controlled, or answers being vague.

Your cycle is a vital sign, and it has a story to tell.

Through my work with the Creighton Model FertilityCare and my training as a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, I help uncover why your body is responding the way it is and how to support true, lasting healing.

This isn’t about quick fixes or temporary relief. It’s about restoring balance, honoring the way God designed your body, and empowering you with knowledge and confidence in your health journey.

If you’re ready to make meaningful changes, or simply want someone in your corner, I’d love to walk with you. 💛

Healthy snacks don’t have to be complicated — they just need to support your body. 🌿

Simple options like nuts and dried fruit, a well-sourced protein bar, or meat sticks can go a long way in stabilizing blood sugar, supporting hormones, and keeping energy steady throughout the day.

When your body is fueled consistently, cravings soften, moods feel steadier, and digestion often improves.

The key is choosing snacks that combine protein, healthy fats, and real ingredients — not perfection, not restriction, and not fear around food.

Snacks are an opportunity to nourish, especially during busy days, long stretches between meals, or seasons of healing.

Food is meant to support you — not stress you out.

If you’re unsure what snacks actually work for your body, comment or DM “DISCOVERY” and let’s talk through a plan that fits your life and your health goals.

If you’ve spent years dealing with “random” symptoms that never quite added up — you’re in the right place. 🤍

Hi, I’m Rita, a gut and hormone coach, and I help women uncover the root causes behind things like indigestion, painful periods, headaches, thinning hair, low energy, brittle fingernails, and anemia — symptoms that are often dismissed or treated in isolation, but are deeply connected.

My approach isn’t about quick fixes or masking what your body is trying to say.

It’s about listening carefully, restoring what’s missing, and supporting your body the way it was designed to function with dignity, clarity, and hope.

If you’re ready to finally understand your body and feel well again, I can’t wait to walk with you.

In my recent podcast episode with Dr. Trina Winner, DPT (.trinawinnerdpt), she shares one of the biggest myths she hears:
“That pelvic floor issues only happen after childbirth.”

The truth is, your pelvic floor is influenced by far more than pregnancy — and it affects people at every age and stage of life.

Infants, teenagers, adults, older women, and yes… even men all have a pelvic floor.

Things like chronic constipation, straining, high-impact exercise, repetitive daily strain, poor body mechanics, persistent coughing, sneezing, or seasonal allergies can all place stress on the pelvic floor over time.

That’s why I see so many young women dealing with pelvic pain, incontinence, painful tampon use, or cycle-related discomfort — even if they’ve never had a baby.

Your symptoms aren’t random, and they’re not something you just have to live with.

When we widen the lens and understand how the body works as a whole, real support and real relief becomes possible.

If pelvic pain, bladder symptoms, or cycle discomfort have been brushed off in the past, know this: your body is communicating, and it deserves to be listened to.

Most of us grew up with a version of “sex ed” that taught us two things:
1️⃣ your cycle is unpredictable
2️⃣ your fertility is a problem to control

But here’s the truth that no one told us: your cycle is one of the most reliable, intelligent, and beautifully designed systems in your body.

It was never meant to be feared, ignored, or treated like a ticking time bomb.

Women deserve real education — not scare tactics, not half-truths, and not the dismissive “this is just how it is.”

Because when you actually understand how your hormones, ovulation, cervical fluid, mood shifts, and energy patterns work, everything changes:

✨ Your symptoms make sense
✨ Your fertility becomes something you can read — not guess
✨ Your cycle stops feeling like chaos
✨ You feel more connected to the way God designed your body to function

S*x ed wasn’t wrong because it didn’t care.
It was wrong because it didn’t teach enough - especially the parts that actually empower women.

Make sure to check out my episode with Dr. Naomi Whittaker (), a board-certified OBGYN and NaPro Surgeon, to learn about what good medicine for women truly looks like.

🚨🚨🚨Blood sugar dysregulation is a fancy way to say that your insulin and blood glucose has become dysfunctional.

90% of the time this happens because we are eating too much sugar, or foods in general, that cause your blood glucose to rise quickly, signaling to your cells to release a large amount of insulin, and overtime that insulin becomes toxic to your cells. (Crazy thing here is that even foods that don't cause other peoples glucose levels to spike might spike yours. Especially if those are foods you have a sensitivity too.)

So your cells stop responding to that large amount of insulin.

So how do we support our bodies ability to reverse this process and be more responsive (sensitive) to insulin?

❤Balance Macros.
✂️Eliminate inflammatory foods.
💩Heal your gut.
💪Increase muscle mass.

The last two are the most common overlooked factors when someone is working to rebalance blood sugar.

I made her breakfast.

She in her sweet little 5 year old fashion says, "Thanks mama. I'm gonna eat my egg then my bread. So it doesn't spike my blood sugar. Right, mama?" 🥹😆

"Right, baby."❤

We talk about blood sugar becuase I have a couple kiddos that get quite hangry. Like real bad. So in our home I try to teach them what that feels like.

🚨Shaky hands.
🚨Jittery.
🚨Short fussed.
🚨Unable to focus.
🚨Needing to eat.

Because balancing blood sugar isn't just important when you are diabetic. Or prediabetic.

If your blood sugar is dysregulated, it means you are inflamed. And if you are inflamed other systems aren't going to work well either.

➡➡Trying to lose weight? Forget about it.
➡➡Balanced hormones? That won't happen.
➡➡Showing up lovely, present, and with grace? Sorry not that either.

Don't even get me started on your energy levels.

So if your blood sugar is off. Learn how to support it!! It is the only way to show up with more energy, to love our people better, and to do the things the Lord has called us to.

❤❤It's as simple as that. ❤❤

Two clients. Zero gut symptoms. One BIG surprise.

👩‍🦰 Client A had all the digestive complaints — bloating, food sensitivities, indigestion.
🧔 Client B had none. Just a rash that kept getting worse and a nagging cough.

We ran GI tests on both.

😳 Client A’s results? Pretty mild — just low good bacteria.
😬 Client B’s? A total gut disaster.

Both saw massive improvements once we supported their gut.

Here’s the truth ➡️ You don’t have to have stomach pain to have a gut problem.
Your body will send messages through your skin, hormones, sleep, or even your mood.

🎥 I break down why everything stems from gut health in my latest ebook— and what you can do about it.

Hormone issues??

How do you know?

Well friends that is what I wanna talk to you about next week.

All of these issues listed above, have a hormonal component yes.

BUT that is not the root cause problem.
Even low progesterone. We need to dig deeper.

Why is progesterone low?

Yes, you can take a supplement and that might help your hair loss. But what if we really dive into what your body is telling us and needs support in the process so it never happens again. Not only that but your hair grows back thicker!

That weight loss that won’t budge. In what ways does your body not feel safe enough to let go of that weight it’s been storing. It might be hormonal imbalance that is signaling to your body that the weight should stay.
BUT that is not the root cause. The answer is much deeper, and often much simpler than that.

I’m going to peel back the layers on how do hormones get imbalanced, what you can do to rebalance them, and talk through simple practical things you can do in your day today to help get your body moving forward from where you are right now.

AND on top of that we are dedicating an entire day dedicated to regulating your nervous system.

This workshop is designed to help you go into the Christmas season with …
🏃‍♀️more energy in the tank!
📈More regulation in your emotions to love on your people more and better.
❤️a deeper sense of how God made your body good and how you can support it better!
And so much more!!
