The Story Behind My Work
I'm Courtney, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist since 2009. I'm also an IVF mom and a rescue dog mom who loves yoga and spending time in nature.
My career in nutrition began in the conventional, evidence-based world of dietetics. With over a decade of experience in traditional healthcare and my own journey as a patient facing health challenges, I've witnessed both the benefits and limitations of modern medicine.
My Own Turning Point
For me, it was an abrupt change in my GI health that altered the course of my career. I spent over five years struggling with food intolerances, cutting out many favorites, and trying to find balance with IBS symptoms.
Nutrition became a big part of my recovery -- both mentally and physically. Over time, as other struggles surfaced, I also turned to what I'd learned through nutrition to help manage endometriosis, fertility, and the energy dips that used to hit hard in the afternoons.
Why I Do This Work
This work grew out of my own journey. I share what I've learned to support others and bring more ease to the health habits and information that can feel confusing or overwhelming.
