About Me, Helen...
My journey into motherhood cracked me wide open. I became a mother in a new country, far from home, and quickly found myself feeling overwhelmed, isolated, and totally unregulated in my nervous system. My second daughter came along so quickly after my first daughter and I soon became easily burnt out and depleted, especially as may eldest was having a tough time with the transition. It was hard for me to be fully nourished while I was nursing two kids and I barely had time to replenish myself and meet my own needs. I had to learn to be smart about how to to do exactly that - meet MY needs. I realised I was grieving support and community and wasn't prioritising my self care, even in the short moments - I was neglecting my needs and I knew had to change that. I knew I'd be a better mother for it.
​
What followed was a deep unraveling — and an even deeper remembering. I turned to nature, spirit, and the wisdom of my body. I replenished myself with nutrient rich, organic, raw superfoods and something suddenly shifted. I began to finally feel like myself again…Slowly, I learned to choose all forms of nourishment. I discovered that true nourishment is also our emotional, mental, spiritual nourishment - rooted in how we care for ourselves as mothers. This healing journey lit a fire in me to support other mamas, and to create spaces where we can rest, reconnect, feel seen, held and supported, and ultimately be nourished in every way.
​
I believe that when a mother heals, her children heal, and so does our great mother, the Earth. I’m here to walk this path with you and help you to become Nourished in all its forms.
And so it is.
