Hi! I'm Eileen
I believe that every woman is unique and that nutrition should be personalized so you can achieve better results.
I believe that implementing small changes in habits will better serve you in the long term.
I believe that eating whole foods is the best way to nourish our bodies during perimenopause and beyond and that overly restrictive diets can do more harm than good.
I believe that your health is in your hands, and you have the capacity to heal and change your future.

My Story
In my life, I have faced various health challenges such as endometriosis, adenomyosis, and MCAS. These experiences motivated me to change my career and become a functional nutritionist to assist other women in improving their health.
After spending many years in perimenopause, I experienced early menopause (when it happens before age 45), and I know how frightening and isolating it can be. However, I also recognize the effectiveness of nutrition and lifestyle changes during perimenopause and after. Unfortunately, online advice often doesn't cater to women in this stage of life.
That's precisely why I specialized in perimenopause – to help women like you improve their health during this challenging time. I am passionate about helping women thrive, improve their health, and regain trust and love for their bodies. And I hope to help you next!
