My breastfeeding journey has not been an easy ride with no.3. It’s pushed me to my limits in so many ways, caused me to question my ability as a mother, but also helped me down an incredible journey of healing, with some beautiful wins and moments to celebrate along the way. I can’t believe we’ve made it all the way to 6 months 💜

I’m not sure how much longer I will last, but I though I would share some of the lessons I’ve learned along the way, and what’s helped me most as we’ve dealt with: tongue ties, lip ties, laser frenectomy, breast refusal, triple feeding, mixed feeding, low weight, bottle preference, and more.

It’s honestly incredible what we go through as mothers, and I surprised myself each day as I continue to stretch and push my capacity. I definitely did not have his in my mind when I was planning out my postpartum 3rd time around late last year. But at the same time it’s taught me to be able to let go of expectations, to ride that rollercoaster journey of motherhood, and just take each day as it comes.

While of course, celebrating every little win along the way.

Let me know if this resonates with you and your own journey, feel free to share below 💜

New research just gave us one of the biggest clues yet into what’s happening in PMDD 🧠

A new genetics study found a gene — CACNA1C — linked to severe premenstrual symptoms. Not “the PMDD gene,” but a big deal & it’s also linked to ADHD, autism, bipolar, and depression.

The standout finding: no genetic link to hormone levels themselves.

That backs up what many of us have suspected for years, that PMDD isn’t about “too much” or “too little” estrogen or progesterone. It’s about how sensitive your brain and nervous system are to normal hormonal shifts.

This is why I don’t just look at hormones, I look at your whole nervous system’s response.

(Preprint study, not yet peer-reviewed, but an exciting first step 👇)

I used to think being a “good” naturopath meant getting it all right — every label, every ingredient, every choice.

Turns out that mindset was making me less healthy, not more.

Health isn’t just what’s on your plate. It’s your nervous system too. Your relationship with food. Whether you can actually enjoy your life.

I still believe in food as medicine. I just don’t believe fear is.

Does this sound familiar, or is it just me? 💜

Cooking is one of my happy places, and so is nourishing my body. But lately, with a busy household, breastfeeding, and less spoons/capacity, I’ve been focusing on meals that are affordable, nutrient-dense, support my energy and are adaptable for the different sensory needs in our neurodivergent household.

So the meals I keep coming back to are simple, comforting, high in protein and nutrients, easy to prep ahead, freezer-friendly, and flexible enough that everyone can usually eat some version of it.

One thing I love doing with clients is sharing practical recipe ideas that support hormones, mood, and energy without requiring hours in the kitchen or a perfectly functioning executive system 🫠

I’d love to start sharing more of that here too.

Would you be interested in an e-book with some of my go-to recipes and meal ideas that are:
• neurodivergent-friendly
• supportive for postpartum & hormones
• batch-cook/freezer-friendly
• realistic for low-capacity days
• kid-friendly & sensory-aware

Let me know below if that’s something you’d love to see 🙏

These are a few hills I'll happily die on as an Unmasked Naturopath.

~ Rest is a biological need, not a reward.
~ You can't out-supplement burnout.
~ A nervous system in survival mode affects
everything.
~ The best health plan works with your brain, your hormones, and your life, not against them.

If you're tired of health advice that was never designed for your brain, comment WAITLIST below to get started with me this month.

Sitting in a room full of women at the Yellow Ladybugs conference last week, listening to them share their experiences growing up undiagnosed in the 80s and 90s... I couldn't help but reflect on my own.

I had a diagnosis. And still, nobody knew what to do with me.
This is part one of my story, what chronic masking looked like from the inside, and what it eventually cost me physically.

If you grew up feeling like too much and not enough at the same time, 'd love to hear your experience in the comments. 💜

Part 2 coming soon.

Comment “HISTAMINE” and I’ll send you my free guide on the histamine–hormone–ADHD connection.

We are finally moving away from the outdated idea that mental health exists separately from the body.

New research mapped the brain’s histamine system and found links with emotional regulation, stress processing, motivation, ADHD, depression, sleep, and cognition.

As someone working with neurodivergent women every day… this makes SO much sense.

Because many ND women aren’t just dealing with “attention issues.”
They’re navigating hormone shifts, inflammation, sensory overwhelm, sleep disruption, nervous system dysregulation, burnout, gut symptoms, and fluctuating executive function, often all at once.

The brain is biological.
And neurodivergent care deserves to be more nuanced than productivity hacks and potentially triggering shame-based advice.

This is so simple, yet makes a huge difference.
It’s one of the first things I recommend to my ADHD clients starting stimulant medication — and it helps more than people realise.

If you take ADHD medication first thing in the morning:
eat something with protein alongside it.

Why?

Because it can help:
• support a more stable blood sugar & energy throughout the day.
• reduce the “I forgot to eat all day” effects of meds
• make the afternoon crash feel less intense
• support cortisol an your nervous system regulation
• create a more consistent morning routine + the benefits of eating within the first 30mins of the day

Easy options:
• protein bar or cookie
• boiled eggs
• cheese + crackers
• handful of nuts
• smoothie
• protein pancakes
• cottage cheese on toast/crackers
• Greek yoghurt

Find whatever works for you, the main thing is that you remember to eat it!

If you’re newly on ADHD medication and struggling with side effects, appetite, energy crashes, or feeling “wired but depleted” this is a good place to start.

Comment “WAITLIST” if you’d like support with hormones, nervous system regulation, nutrition, and ADHD-friendly strategies
