Science Meets Natural Wisdom

Fertility Foundations emerged from a journey of discovery about how creating the right conditions allows health to naturally flourish.

A Journey of Discovery

Despite having an advanced education in Biology and a fascination with learning everything I could about health & wellbeing- I was in for a shock when I became a mother.  I experienced firsthand how conventional approaches often miss crucial pieces of preparing a woman for pregnancy & postpartum. Though I led a conventionally healthy life, my first pregnancy began in an unrecognized state of nutritional depletion. I ended up with complications including a close call with gestational diabetes, confirmed gestational hypertension, and an unplanned C-section.  This was actually the pregnancy & birth experience of my own mother's. Postpartum, I experienced what I later learned was "postnatal depletion" - something many mothers face, but aren't aware of or supported in... leading to experiences of exhaustion and burnout in body-mind-spirit that can last years.

With my second pregnancy, I was intuitively guided to a different approach. Simple lab testing revealed specific imbalances that, once addressed, created a dramatically different experience of pregnancy & postpartum - no signs of diabetes or hypertension, a profound sense of wellbeing throughout, and an energized, joyful, and nourished postpartum experience.

I rewrote the story of fertility, pregnancy, and birth experiences that ran in my family.

This contrast showed me that when we support our bodies properly, we can better create the potential for the miracle & transformation held in becoming a mother; in creating & birthing life. And we can create new stories of support & wellbeing in health. As I witnessed this in my own life, I felt called to share these insights with other women in our community.

The Science of Generational Health

Having always been fascinated by how our bodies work, my personal experiences deepened my interest in epigenetics - how nutrition, lifestyle, our beliefs, environment, and releasing accumulated stress can influence genetic expression across generations.  In essence, our genes are not necessarily our destiny- our choices carry incredible influence. And while every woman's journey is unique, and outcomes may vary due to our bioindividuality... all our bodies carry incredible wisdom for health & wellbeing. 

What captivates me most is that during pregnancy, a woman carries the blueprint for three generations- her own, her child's, and her future grandchildren via the developing fetus' reproductive cells. The choices we make can influence not just our health, but potentially our children's and grandchildren's as well. This knowledge isn't readily available to most women, but I believe it should be.

The Fertility Foundations Approach

Fertility Foundations integrates scientific research with respect for the body's natural intelligence to support women and couples in:

Supporting fertility naturally through evidence-based strategies

Addressing hidden stressors affecting hormonal balance and vitality

Creating foundations for family health that begin before conception

Navigating the preconception and postpartum periods with care


As a certified Epigenetic Lifestyle Health Coach and and Mind-Body Facilitator, I bring both scientific understanding and practical tools to this work. But my most valuable qualification is having walked this path myself.

Evidence-Based Foundation & Accessible Wisdom

I bring to this work my background in science and continued studies in holistic approaches including certification as an Epigenetic Health Coach and a mindfulness practitioner with a focus on the body-mind connection.

​This combination of scientific understanding and holistic approaches allows me to bridge the gap between evidence-based strategies and honoring the body's innate wisdom. This approach honors both science and faith in the profound design of women's bodies, providing support that is personalized, grounded in research, and practical for even the busiest of families.

"During pregnancy, you carry the blueprint for three generations—your choices today can influence your grandchildren's health."
