HI! I'M CHRISTINA :)
HI! I'M CHRISTINA :)
My health journey began when I was 16 and went to the gynecologist because I was getting my period twice a month (so fun, right?!) She told me I had PCOS and immediately prescribed me birth control as a “fix." I didn’t question it considering all my friends were on it, so I assumed this was normal. After doing my own research 3 years later, I realized that birth control was NOT good for my body because birth control suppresses ovulation meaning that my body wasn’t working as it naturally should. I also discovered that my symptoms of period cramps, hormonal acne, and bloating were just being masked and the issues I had weren't being solved with the pill. This drove me completely nuts!
Finally, I decided to get off the pill and adapt a better diet and overall lifestyle. After years of weight fluctuations, PMS, crying daily, and not being able to leave my bed due to cramps, I began living a symptom-free life.
I wish more than anything that the doctor sat me down and told me what I needed to fix in my diet/lifestyle and live according to my four phases instead of giving me a pill full of chemicals. I became totally obsessed with the food industry and the way our hormones work, and so I made my passion official by getting certified as a hormone health coach. I am passionate about health on so many levels and want to make sure everyone I work with learns about this too. I wish all doctors would get to the root of the problem, and that’s where I come in. As your health coach and partner, I’ll work with you to find the solutions you need.
