My Story with Infertility...
Hi there,
I'm Shannon, a Holistic Nutritionist passionate about helping women get pregnant sooner. Whether that's through balancing hormonal symptoms, PCOS fertility support, optimizing fertility over 35, regulating your cycle, unexplained infertility, improving egg quality or supporting you through IVF. I can help you through it.
My own fertility journey started a few years back when my husband and I were finally ready to start trying to conceive after years of waiting for the “perfect” time. Little did we know, our journey would not be quick or easy.
-I had been on the birth control pill for 16 years
-My cycle took over a year to return, and was extremely irregular
- I worked with both traditional fertility and naturopathic doctors
-I was diagnosed with PCOS
-We suffered a painful miscarriage.
During this time I was exercising way too much, under eating and I had just suffered the loss of a close loved one. To say my body was under chronic stress in an understatement!
After many more months had passed, we finally conceived with the help of medication to stimulate ovulation and brought a beautiful and healthy baby girl into the world after 3 years of trying.
Although I am grateful for the medical system that helped us to conceive, I wish I knew more about healing myself first. Maybe my journey to motherhood would have been a lot shorter.
There is so much more to fertility than what the medical system has to offer. Yes, there is definitely a need for it in some couples, but why aren’t we told that we can try to heal from within first or even alongside it?
My experience compelled me to learn more by becoming a Holistic Nutritionist specializing in helping women optimize their fertility naturally and get pregnant sooner than continuing to try on their own.
My goal is to educate and empower my clients to regain control of their fertility and be able to create the family they have been dreaming of, without the overwhelm of doing it alone.
If you have reached the point in your journey where you know there is more to your fertility than just “keep trying” or IVF waitlists, and you are ready to take control over your health and focus on supporting the foundations to get pregnant sooner, click below to see what it might be like to work with me.
