hey! i’m Danica.
I’m a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, wife, and homeschooling mom of 3 living in the Pacific Northwest.
I help women just like you to find clarity along their health and wellness journey. I teach you how to use nutrition to work for you instead of against you. My goal is to empower you to be an advocate for your own health, tune into the signals your body is sending you, and use what I teach to live the most nourishing and abundant life possible.
In this space you’ll find a bounty of inspiration and motivation, and a wealth of tips, tricks,
and knowledge to take you from overwhelm and frustration to a lifetime of thriving.
My story.
I was exhausted. I’m talking, all of the time. I had a hard time getting going in the morning and I felt like I always needed a nap after lunch. Our little family was on the go everyday and I felt like I was repeatedly being dragged behind instead of leading the pack. I often insisted, rather grouchily, that I needed a snack to keep myself from feeling dizzy and I was always reaching for something sweet (I’m talking Leslie Knope status). Then, some foods started making me feel…weird, but I couldn’t figure out why. I went to see my doctor, who told me everything looked fine and it must be all in my head. But for good measure, sent me to a specialist, who referred me to another specialist, who couldn’t help and sent me to someone else, and on and on until I almost gave up.
I’ve spent the last decade nerding out on nutrition, reading book after book and teaching myself everything I could find about real food. I started digging deeper into how this could all be connected with what I was feeling and it eventually led me to the Nutritional Therapy Association. I trained to become an NTP and have since made it my mission to help women like me feel heard and validated in their health concerns.
Mom life is definitely busy, exhausting, and stressful. But if these feelings are taking over your life, it’s time to chat! I’m here to help you take back your days and start enjoying them again.
