Hi there! I’m Amy.
I help women reclaim health and vibrance from the burdens of aging, stress and gut imbalances.
Imagine your best self…You have a lot of dreams. You have accomplished so much and yet you have so many hopes you want to fulfill.
But often it feels like your health comes last and you aren’t always able to make self-care a priority. Now you feel like you don’t even know how. The result… you are depleted and frazzled and experiencing emotions and health changes that maybe you chalk up to stress or to aging. Or maybe your health practitioner or friend told you what you were feeling - or your lab results - were “normal.”
I want to ask you three questions.
What would it feel like to get back to your best self?
What if you felt the confidence of knowing what steps would bring you there?
What would you be able to do if you felt energetic, empowered and truly able to thrive?
With practical, compassionate changes to your diet and lifestyle, you can truly begin to free your mind, body and spirit. And as a board-certified holistic nutrition counselor, I can help you on your journey into healing by helping you get to the ROOT of your imbalances and identifying the unique, foundational nutrition, mindset, exercise and self-care steps that can help you feel better, think clearly and reclaim the life you were meant to live. Together, we can reclaim your freedom from the sometimes complex aging-related, digestive and chronic health issues that are holding you back from living your life fully.
Isn’t it time to take back your “youfulness”?
What people are saying…
“Enlisting Amy in my wellness journey came as a recommendation from my functional medicine doctor, and I could not be more thankful! Amy’s deep knowledge, patience, and tailored approach have empowered me take control of my gut health, and feel motivated and excited to continue down the path of wellness.”
It all starts with the gut. And your gut issues are not just in your head.
Whether you are dealing with thyroid or adrenal imbalances, transitioning through perimenopause or menopause, burdened by digestive disorders or navigating more complex chronic or autoimmune issues, nourishing yourself is the foundation of healing. And all health begins in the gut.
Gut function (and DYSfunction) can have a significant impact on your hormones, your periods, your skin, your joints, your energy, your brain health, your immunity, and your risk of developing or worsening autoimmune disease — not to mention your whole outlook on life. Your gut lining is rich in friendly bacteria that help you digest food and absorb or synthesize nutrients a.k.a. goddess fuel. This amazing little ecosystem is the gut microbiome and we are still learning new things every day about the importance a woman’s microbiomes - there’s many - play in her ability to thrive.
And… gut issues affect more than 100 million women and are twice as likely to affect women than men. But how often do you talk about your poop or your constipation or your acid reflux with your girlfriends… or even your doctor? Digestive concerns are often a result of our culture that values stress and business over conscious living, overreliance on antibiotics and other medications, inflammatory foods and toxins and convenience foods.
These millions of women offer suffer silently… and needlessly… when nutrition and wellness changes can make a world of difference.
And I am passionate about empowering women to discover how embracing YOUR best nutrient-dense eating approach coupled with self-kindness, food education and a mindful lifestyle can dramatically change the course of your life.
Together, let’s take back your microbiome… and unlock your natural ability to heal.

Making shifts to your lifestyle and way of eating can seem overwhelming but they don’t have to be. Empowerment starts with education and know-how. From embracing subtle shifts in mindset to adding in yummy foods you didn’t even know you were missing, each step forward strengthens your gut and empowers your healing.

“I believe many women have been made to feel shame about their bodies after forty and are fearful and confused about what diet and lifestyle changes are right for them. The truth is what used to work for us often needs to be replaced with more nurturing self-care practices and a renewed focus on gut health. And with that we empower ourselves to live more creatively and vibrantly.”

Eating to support your gut health and longevity doesn’t have to be fancy nor flavorless. And it doesn’t require you to have knife skills like a contestant on Chopped! I love to share recipes that are mega-flavorful and contain superfoods that really pack a nutrient-dense punch but don’t require much time or complicated ingredients.
“We all know one-size definitely does not fit all. Figuring out the foods, lifestyle and beliefs that best support you can help you make small steps toward big digestive + healing transformation.”
