It started with a diagnosis.
In 2014, I was fresh out of highschool and things took a tumble health wise. The dreaded weight gain came, and it was uncontrollable. I dealt with depression, anxiety, irritability, intense cravings and hunger, and among other things, I was always tired.
After a lot of convincing, I finally got my doctor to do some testing, and I received a diagnoses of PCOS.
PCOS is basically a hormone imbalance that tends to stem from an overproduction of male hormones (androgens), blood sugar instability (insulin resistance), and toxic inflammation that also tend to all throw off ovulation.
I didn't worry too much about it at the time, but it became an even bigger deal when I got engaged to my now husband, Logan. We wanted a family right away, and I wasn't ovulating--which, by the way, I didn't figure out via my doctor. I figured it out for myself.
I actually never did get much help from a doctor, albeit he was a great one. PCOS is just so misunderstood, and there is a lack of education around it.
I decided I was worth more than what I got.
Through a TON of research, some help from a couple naturopaths and holistic care providers, and my own determination, I did end up overcoming my inability to ovulate and got pregnant with the help of fertility medications in 2019.
I also had a miscarriage, and never got to meet that sweet baby.
But because I was so consistent in the new lifestyle I created for myself to overcome this very thing, when I went back into my doctor's office to start another round of fertility drugs, I actually found out I was pregnant.
I met my daughter later that same year, followed by my son a short seventeen months later.
I went on to beat my depressive state, ditch the toxic inflammation, love myself, and I am in the best shape of my life.
PCOS isn't who you are. It's not who you have to be. Through a mind/body approach, I overcame, just like so many others have as well.
My ultimate WHY for myself is to continue to bring balance to my body and keep my hormones out of the disharmony they once were in. My ultimate WHY for walking this journey with you is to help you get so in tune with your body that you can recover faster and never stay stuck in similar cycles.

What I know is worth being shared.
I started Little House Holistics and became a Certified Natural Health Professional to help others going through similar, as well as different bodily imbalances, feel alive again.
I use a mind/body approach to address different health issues. We focus on lifestyle factors, nutrition foundations, and emotions to bring you back to the you that you were always meant to let shine.
If my story and what I learned could have helped only one person, I would have been satisfied, but it has blossomed into something so much more beautiful.
Today, I find joy in walking health journeys with so many of my clients, friends, and family.
That includes you. I am so thankful for you.
If you feel like you are sleep walking through life, have nowhere else to turn, or like you've done it all...
know that your story doesn't end here.
I hope to hear more about your story soon, and how you overcome.
I invite you to follow me on Instagram @little.house.holistics to learn more about the very things I have implemented into my life, as well as the lives of others. Above all, I invite you to connect. Let's chat. Community is such a powerful thing, and I am always looking for more friends.
