MEET YOUR PRACTITIONER & WELLNESS CHEERLEADER
MY MISSION IS TO HELP WOMEN FEEL COMFORTABLE, CONFIDENT AND EMPOWERED IN THEIR BODIES AND MIND
I focus on so much more than nutrition in my practice, from stress management to movement, because I believe in finding alignment in the whole being- mind, body and soul. I am incredibly grateful to merge the interconnected world of well-being with my passion for helping and healing others. I have been the person, uncomfortable and unhappy in my skin, seeking support, so I want you to know I feel your struggle and I am here to be your biggest supporter & wellness cheerleader throughout this transformative journey.
Hi! I'm Hannah
CERTIFIED NUTRITIONAL PRACTITIONER + WOMENS HEALTH ADVOCATE
My journey into holistic health and wellness began in high school. I was struggling with a heavily restrictive eating disorder (orthorexia) coupled with an exercise addiction, which led me to become underweight and lose my period for a little over a year. In addition to under-nourishing and over-exercising I was chronically over-stressed and cyclically going on/ off the birth control pill. By the end of my 3 year struggle with birth control, stress & food fear I was nearing high school graduation, burnt out and struggling with cortisol belly, hormonal acne, gut imbalances, poor digestion & overall a very unhealthy, unhappy body.
My own struggles led me to the Institute of Holistic Nutrition (IHN) right out of high school, where I completed my studies and became a Holistic Nutritionist. While enrolled and completing my courses at IHN I found my love for gut health, digestive healing and hormonal bliss. My love for PCOS comes from not my own struggle, but that of one of my dearest friends. She had asked me to help her manage PCOS symptoms, so I researched and put together a healing protocol for her. Ever since I finalized that protocol I have been hooked on all things fertility, PCOS, PMS and hormones. I want to help and empower women to feel secure & happy in their bodies through happy hormones, optimized digestion and a nourished gut. I want women struggling with acne, PMS, PCOS and imbalances to feel one with their bodies and aligned with themselves.
