About Me
Hi there! My name is Juliana, a mama to two under two, a licensed Naturopathic Doctor, RN, and certified lactation counselor. The trajectory of my career completely shifted when I became pregnant in my late 30s with my first daughter along with overcoming my own challenges with pregnancy symptoms, postpartum and breastfeeding.
​
I have always been passionate about natural health, spirituality, and empowering individuals along their journey to health and vitality. In fact, this passion led me to become first a Registered Nurse followed by a licensed Naturopathic Doctor and Certified Lactation Counselor.
​
I know quite well the vast journey of healing transformation and the power of connecting to one's intuition to live a truly aligned, inspired, and healthier life. I have traversed the up and downs of digestive issues, inflammation, fatigue, and a bittersweet relationship with food. Through unwavering perseverance, I came into balance with my body, developed a nourishing relationship with food, cultivated a deep inner knowing, and softened back into my true essence.
​
Fast forward to January of 2022, I found out I was pregnant with my first child. As I was filled with excitement (coupled with nervousness) and curiosity about the journey ahead into motherhood, I experienced a profound "ah- ha" moment. You can say my “mama intuition” kicked up a notch as I experienced a clear knowing from within the core of my being that I was going to be shifting my life work to the birth world and coach other mamas from pregnancy, postpartum, lactation and beyond.
​
I absolutely fell in love with being pregnant as well as the birthing process; from experiencing the sacredness of the female body, the wild shifts in hormones, and never a dull moment of symptoms to the magnificence of growing a human. As women we are called to give birth and to give ourselves permission to tap into our feminine power. It is this power that reminds us of our capability to endure 9 months of pregnancy and the first 90 days postpartum. Being pregnant was a captivating journey and the birth of my little girl divinely redirected the trajectory of my path beyond what I could not have previously envisioned.
​
January 2023 I found out I was pregnant again, 3 months into postpartum! Every day was a mixed bag of my body trying to figure out "Am I experiencing pregnancy or postpartum symptoms"? I believe each soul knows exactly the perfect to come into the world and having two healthy girls so close in age is nothing short of a miracle. Was it an exhausting 9 months the second time around? Absolutely yet 100% doable!
​
Birthed out of my personal healing transformation, becoming a mama, educational training and work in healthcare, I utilize a true holistic approach with clients The essence of my work is to facilitate an empowered birth journey, ignite whole body health, and to cultivate the connection to your intuition to guide your way forward as a mama and woman with confidence.
​
“ I believe every birth journey is beautiful and every mama possess a kind of strength that is magnetic.”
