Hey there, I’m Julie—your go-to Nutrition Consultant & Menopause Nutrition Coach! I help women over 40 (yep, just like me!) feel less “WTF is going on with my body?” and more “Okay, I’ve got this.” My mission? To help you ditch the confusion and support your hormones through peri-menopause and beyond—so you can feel more like you again. Why am I so passionate about this stuff? Because I’m living it. As a Mom, business owner, and woman navigating the wild ride of midlife hormones, I get it. This is your new chapter—It’s your time to THRIVE (and yes, feel like a badass while doing it).💥
