Jessica’s Story
“ When I had our first baby I was the happiest and healthiest I’d ever been. I had spent months preparing for conception, I lavished on myself during pregnancy, I did all of the things I was supposed to, and I went into the post-partum period feeling really good!
Fast forward to baby number two and things didn’t feel quite so good. A mild case of PND combined with work, studying, a traveling husband, and adjusting to being a Mum of two took its toll. Without realising it I had stopped prioritising my own health and wellbeing. For a long period I was tired, wired and eventually depleted. I was so ‘busy’ I did not even see it coming.
It took a couple of wake up calls, but I had seen this many times over in my clients. I finally recognised that I was on the path of a burnout.
With nutrition, natural medicine and mindfulness I slowly started to feel like myself again and was on the road to recovery.
I’m thankful that because of my knowledge and experience as a clinical nutritionist and herbalist, I have the awareness and know-how that I need to bring myself back into alignment. But this made me think: if this could happen to me; what about all the Mums out there that do not have this kind of toolbox?
I know that my story is so similar to many other mums out there, which is why supporting mothers has become my clinical focus.
If you’re feeling like this resonates with you, I hear you. Just know that it is more than ok to prioritise your own health and wellbeing.”
