My Fourth Trimester
so let’s chat about breastfeeding…
With all my heart, this was the part of motherhood I was most excited for. The connection & communication between me & the lil’ Bub through breast feeding I know is the 1st important milestone in the transitioning into Motherhood. . I truly didn’t even think twice about breastfeeding difficulties as I know all the herbs & felt my nutrient levels were in tip top shape and this is an area I have been able to help many other women with in my practice. I was confident with all the tools I had to remedy whatever came forth, but nothing was going to go wrong for me…Right?
Then the time came for our first week check in at the pediatricians office…the fluorescent lighting, the scale weight check, my red hot screaming bub hungry & frustrated. My little girl wasn’t gaining enough weight. I stood there ashamed at my body, embarrassed because I had created more tears than milk in the first days of her little life. I was devastated that I wasn’t able to nourish her even though I nourish myself so well.
Regenerative Medicine

The World in You.
The past few months have stretched us all thin, separating our physical bodies from one another and forcing us to go inward and go deep. While we have had time to foster our own versions of what it means to be authentically whole in our own bodies, social media has kept our consciousness and attentions connected.
Where Magic meets Medicine
Science often dilutes the type of magic we are able to create through medicine. Our scientific system that exists today requires us to prove healing modalities with double-blinded control trials, but truth be told as much as I need and appreciate these studies, I also find myself tuning this out. I do care deeply about the science, don’t get me wrong that’s part of the reason I decided to gather a doctoral graduate degree before entering the world of wellness professionally.
