I have been working with Natalie since the beginning of July! I am having such a positive experience so far. She is truly helping me change my life. I'm eating wildly differently, working out, changing all my routines, everything! I am so glad I found her via Mary Ruddick's website. I wanted to find a nutritionist who knows about animal-based eating, and Natalie definitely does! I also love how she knows a lot about the GAPS diet! I am really excited to continue working with her. She has given me a lot of hope for the future. While I have a long ways to go with my healing, I feel like I am just getting started and have never been more motivated. Thanks, Natalie! :)

I first found Natalie on a podcast earlier this year. Her story and philosophy towards achieving full health really resonated with me. I had been a follower of Mary Ruddick prior to this, so finding out that she was one of Natalie's mentors was great to hear. I decided to schedule a free consultation with Natalie to see if it made sense for her to help me on my continued health journey.

I have had symptoms of sub-optimal health since in my early teens. It started out with a bad case of food poisoning, followed by severe acne, and then a very difficult 6 month course of Accutane. While the acne did improve, I still had skin problems into my late 20's, along with self-confidence and other mental health issues. Then at 27 I was diagnosed with Testicular Cancer, and underwent 3 months of chemotherapy. That experience led me into the search for healing in the alternative/holistic medicine world, mainly focused on diet and supplements to try and achieve optimal health. While this would seem like the best route, the past 10 years have seen many ups and downs, with a lot of frustration along the way. There is lot of information about there about the best alternative protocols for healing. It is very confusing, and you end up getting nowhere while spending thousands of dollars along the way. I found that in many ways the holistic medicine space is no better than standard Western medicine care. It can be full of people just wanting to sell you false hopes, and you end up not being able to cure your ailments and break free from their care. I have worked with many practitioners along the way, so it has become very difficult to trust that a new practitioner is going to be the one that helps bring success. I was apprehensive at first about working with Natalie, but I am so glad that I decided to do so. To start, she is kind, empathetic, and a wonderful listener. Her own health journey has shaped her abilities to help guide me in the right direction. It is so easy to talk to her, and I always feel better after each of our sessions. After the 1st session, Natalie provides you with her initial recommendations. It is a very thought out individualized plan. There is no one-size fits all approach with Natalie. Each plan is customized to fit your needs, and adjustments are made based on your feedback. It is very important to provide as much feedback as possible along the way. She is so knowledgeable when it comes to diet and lifestyle interventions that providing her with the data will only help you achieve the results you want. I am an analytical/numbers person, so that fact that she recommends spreadsheets for tracking lab work and progress make working with her that much better. She has opened my eyes to many other ways of healing the body. I always focused on just diet and supplementation, but she has brought my attention to other factors related to both mental and physical health. Such things as meditation, breathwork, cold/hot therapy, yoga, and gratitude journaling have make a huge difference in how I feel. I also do not try and distract myself with screen time and social media. I have gained a new appreciation for being mindful and living in the moment. I also have gained a joy for reading that I never had before. Natalie has some great recommendations for books to read. It is in no way a quick fix, and Natalie does not give you any unrealistic expectations in terms of a timeline for health. It is really a health journey, and I have learned to enjoy the journey rather than just focus on the end goal. I am the most confident that I have been in a long time in terms of knowing that I am on the right path. I focus more on the positive things in my life rather than the negative. The name of her practice fits perfectly with what Natalie does. She gives her clients confidence. Confidence in themselves and in her. I look forward to continuing to work with Natalie, and look forward to the successes that will come along the way. I highly recommend her! Thank you, Natalie, for all your help so far.

Natalie is extremely knowledgeable, intuitive, sweet-hearted, and overall a pleasure to work with. She's really helped me fine tune my keto diet and stabilize my energy levels. Thanks, Natalie!

“I am so happy that I found Natalie! After months of frustration dealing with debilitating gut related issues & going through multiple ER & doctors visits without answers, an offhand comment from a gastroenterologist about seeing a dietitian led me here. The path to recovery has been tough at times, but I always know that Natalie will guide me through the overwhelming information on the Internet to a plan that will make things better. She is the reason why I’ve been able to get some of my life back & begin enjoying things instead of laying on the couch in pain all day. She explains things in a straightforward way that helps me understand what my body is trying to tell me. Because of her guidance, I have been able to come off medications whose side effects were making my problems worse & I feel better than I have in months. I’m so glad to have found someone so patient, understanding, & caring to guide me through this healing journey.”

“I am very grateful to have found Natalie through Pauline's hormone program. I've seen amazing results since starting to work with Natalie to heal my gut. I've experienced an array of gut related imbalances and issues including candida, constipation, IBS, and leaky gut related symptoms. Before starting I was also looking to address my past of antibiotic use and both disordered eating and eating disorder patterns. All these imbalances ultimately have led to estrogen dominance and very painful moon cycles and disregulated moon cycles. Natalie's guidance aligns beautifully with Pauline's program. I've followed a very personal nutrition plan with a focus on wholesome animal and plant foods and effective supplementation. I've experienced a pain-free (and PMS free) 28 day cycles less than a month after following Natalie's protocol. I've also been able to pin-point foods that upset my gut and understand why. But with time, I have incorporated foods back into my diet (even dairy!) with no gut or hormone upset. The recommended lifestyle factors (sleep, morning and evening routing, and self-reflection work, etc) has also been a game changer, and has showed me the environment around the food I eat is also extremely important. This has been a vital step in my healing process and would recommend to anyone working on healing their gut and wanting a deep dive into the gut connection to hormones!”

“Natalie is amazing to work with. She helped me to put my Hashimoto’s thyroiditis into remission (after more than 10 years) by guiding me to heal my gut and get more comfortable trying new things in the kitchen. Her kind and relaxed style, combined with her deep well of nutrition knowledge, really empowered me to take responsibility for the changes I wanted to see in my health.”
