Simple, delicious, and despite looking gourmet, a very quick lunch! Prep enough ingredients on Sunday, and you can have this well balanced lunch all week long.

I’m VERY excited to finally share this one with you!

I’m teaming up with Coach Eric at Lean Strong Fitness for an afternoon all about MENOPAUSE + MOVEMENT - and this is going to be a good one.

We’re combining two things that are incredibly important during the menopause transition and beyond: Understanding what’s happening in your body + learning how to support it through movement.

Here’s what we’re doing:
🏋️‍♀️ 11:00 AM: 45-minute guided strength training workout with Coach Eric
→ All fitness levels welcome
→ Movements can be scaled to where you’re at
→ You’ll learn a workout you can actually take home and practice on your own

🩺 12:00 PM: Menopause workshop with me!
→ What’s actually happening in your body during Perimenopause & Menopause
→ Common symptoms, experiences + why they happen
→ Your options for care, including Hormone therapy (MHT)
→ Risks, benefits & common misconceptions around MHT
→ Why the menopause transition is such an important time to think about your long-term health
→ And LOTS of time for questions

Plus refreshments, take-home resources, giveaways and a raffle prize! 🎁

📅 Saturday, September 19
⏰ 11:00 AM–1:30 PM
📍 Lean Strong Fitness — 101 Beverley St., Suite B, Guelph

You can come for the workout, the workshop, or both!

If you’re going through perimenopause or menopause, just approaching this stage of life, or simply want to understand what’s ahead- I would LOVE to have you there.
And bring a friend, sister, mom, partner, or anyone else who you think would benefit from this conversation. ❤️

We talk a lot about the digestive concerns themselves, but just as important to discuss, is how those digestive symptoms can change your relationship with food. Which has a huge impact on your quality of life.

Food is more than just fuel, although that is a main function. It’s also for gathering around a table and connecting with family and friends, celebrating big milestones and life events, sharing family recipes, and treating yourself for enjoyment.

So if you feel that your digestive symptoms are to the point where they are now impacting your relationship with food, I encourage you to seek support. You really do deserve to enjoy food again.

Another ND approved recipe- for those of us that don’t like spending all night in the kitchen 👩🏼‍🍳. A simple option, that’s great for Ontario’s asparagus season!

When women land in my office with concerns of endometriosis, our discussion is about so much more than just the pain. We talk about the plans they’ve had to cancel, the impact to their mental health and confidence, and the people that don’t believe them in their suffering. And we talk about the options- both conventional and naturopathic, to get them started on a treatment plan that feels right for them.

Endometriosis can be exhausting, and you deserve the right support.

What actually happens during an initial visit with a Naturopathic Doctor, you ask? Here’s what you can expect in my office! 🩺

I recently had the chance to speak with GuelphToday about the suffering that comes with chronic digestive concerns. An area I am honoured to support in my clinical practice. If this article resonates; I see you, your suffering is real and you deserve support.
