ABOUT OLIVIA

My menstrual journey started when I was just over 11 years old, where I was met with all the symptoms you usually hear about — bloating, cramps, anxiety & the dreaded ACNE. It was so embarrassing and I tried everything (or so I thought) with no success.

Eventually my dermatologist concluded the issue was hormonal, but the solution was simple — the birth control pill. I was desperate and frankly, didn’t know better (and neither did my mom) so my hormonal birth control journey started very young, when I was just about 14 years old.

Sure, it helped for a bit, but eventually my skin would flare up again and I’d start experiencing new symptoms. So what did that mean? Trying a new form of birth control. I swear I eventually tried nearly all of them. But guess what? They all came with a host of issues and side effects and the root cause was never addressed. Instead, I was left feeling more confused, frustrated and disconnected than ever.

Honestly, I was starting to feel like my body just hated me, but the reality was, I just didn’t understand my body (and apparently my doctors didn’t either?!).

Hey I’m Olivia, a certified Women's Hormone Health Practitioner + Menstrual Cycle Coach.

After 8+ years on hormonal birth control, I decided enough was enough and I was determined to get to the bottom of it all, even if it meant doing it mainly on my own.

But there was a lot of ground to cover. It wasn’t just acne anymore — it was acne plus severe gut issues (I’m talking extreme, painful bloating after meals), plus chronic anxiety & depression that at the time, I didn’t realize was related. And so my own holistic healing journey began. No more pills & no quick fixes. I focused entirely on nourishing my body properly, cleaning up my environment, and managing my stress. And while it wasn’t easy, it paid off — suddenly I had symptomless cycles & knew the true meaning of hormonal harmony.

Through all the ups and downs, I quickly learned how everything is truly connected and getting to the root cause through a holistic approach is the only answer for lifelong health — and that’s the exact approach I use with my clients.

For far too long, we’ve been left in the dark without the proper education on how our cycling bodies work, leaving us feeling confused, frustrated, and disconnected. But it’s time to change that. The truth is, your cyclic nature is a beautiful inner compass here to guide you in the right direction. For far too long, we’ve been taught to look outside of ourselves for guidance, leading us to doubt ourselves, severing our self trust and connection to our inner knowing.

It’s time to come home to yourself & reignite the connection with your inner knowing, your innate cyclic wisdom — and your menstruality is the key.

5 THINGS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT ME - YET..

  • I’m a Libra sun (lover of beauty & balance), Gemini moon (think highly curious with a deep desire to learn) & Virgo rising (analytical & service-oriented)

  • I’ve had a strong affinity with the moon & sun since I was a little girl - for my 8th birthday I got to redesign my room with the moon & sun theme, and I still have pieces from my room in my living space today

  • I’m a Manifesting Generator in Human Design… with sacral authority (my magic is in my sacral wisdom) with a 1/3 profile, meaning I’m designed to go deep & getting to the root of things is in my nature

  • I feel most like me when I’m in my inner winter (menstrual phase), deeply grounded in my inner wisdom & blissfully bundled in my moon cocoon

  • I crave depth in every sense of the word - in conversation + connection, purpose + pleasure, intention + embodiment, love + lessons

“Olivia is an absolute gift to the healing community and spirits of women hoping to better embrace and align with their cyclical nature. Her knowledge is extensive, yet made palatable in a way that most can’t replicate, making you feel encouraged to take initiative with the health of your cycle. Working with her has deeply and permanently changed the way I live in my body and how I orchestrate my life to my precious needs. Even an hour with her will send you on a different path to grounded embodiment.”

Your hormones are chemical messengers that govern almost every function in your body — from your mood & emotions, energy & metabolism, fertility & sexuality, growth & development, and more. By focusing on optimizing hormonal health, I’ve witnessed my clients reduce and even eliminate their painful cyclic symptoms, regulate and/or restore their cycles, healthfully transition off of hormonal birth control, tune into their cyclic nature, and ultimately realign with their authentic selves to live a fulfilling and thriving life that they, and you, deserve.

I am devoted to guiding women & menstruators to reclaim their relationship with their menstrual cycles and tap into their innate cyclic wisdom.

I combine my education in nutrition and hormonal health with my training in menstrual cycle awareness to provide a holistic healing experience rooted in nourishing the mind, body & spirit— allowing you to thrive in a world that hasn’t made it easy.
