Discover Holistic Nutrition with The Other Option

 

Hello I'm Heather, I am dedicated to empowering women with a deeper understanding of their health, particularly in areas such as hormonal balance (perimenopause, menopause, PCOS), gut health, weight management, and the powerful role nutrition plays in overall well-being. My approach focuses on supporting the body’s unique needs and fostering a balanced, sustainable way of eating that promotes hormone health and long-term vitality. 

Using a holistic approach to nutrition, I assess each woman’s unique health history, lifestyle, and symptoms to identify the root causes of imbalances. This personalized approach allows us to create targeted nutrition and lifestyle strategies that not only address symptoms but also promote lasting wellness. 

With a passion for women’s health, I strive to help you reconnect with your body’s natural rhythms, listen to its cues, and nourish it with confidence. No more rigid diets, guilt around food choices, or feeling lost when it comes to your health. If you're ready to embrace a sustainable, supportive approach to nutrition tailored to your unique needs, let’s connect!

What is Mindful Eating and Holistic Nutrition?

 

Your relationship with food should be a source of nourishment, balance, and self-care—especially during key hormonal shifts. Throughout my own journey, I discovered the power of truly listening to my body’s needs and honoring the natural changes it goes through. Rather than following restrictive diets, I found that a mindful and holistic approach to eating helped me cultivate a deeper sense of well-being and hormonal harmony. 

Mindful eating is about bringing awareness to your meals and fully experiencing each bite—without stress or guilt. By slowing down, savoring flavors and textures, and tuning into your body’s natural signals, you can develop a more nourishing and intuitive connection with food. 

When integrated into a holistic health framework, mindful eating supports healthy eating for hormone balance, metabolism, and overall vitality. It’s not about rules or restrictions—it’s about nourishing your body in a way that aligns with your unique needs, through every stage of life. 

 

If you’re ready to take control of your health, book a 30-minute consultation with me. We’ll discuss your personal health goals and explore options for 1:1 counseling and additional resources designed specifically for women’s health.

Heather is very knowledgeable and she really cares about you. Heather takes her time to know what your goals are and then helps break down the goals so that it is manageable.

Thank you!!! I truly enjoyed the comfortability I felt with you. It is extremely vulnerable to talk about/own your eating habits and feel comfortable discussing them. You have a great welcoming personality and a positive outlook on the eating journey which was extremely motivating and helpful :) You also gave me awesome recipes to try and experience, which assisted me with a greater imagination than a boring dinner that doesn’t taste so great lol. You’ve been more than I could’ve asked for and I can’t thank you enough for healing me on the inside!"

Working with Heather has been an incredible experience. From the moment we started, she took the time to truly understand where I was in terms of my health and listened attentively to my needs and desires. She didn't just provide generic advice or recommendations; instead, she tailored her approach to create achievable and comfortable goals specifically for me.
