Hi there! I’m Lauren —
Mom, Perinatal Nutrition Coach
& Ayurvedic Postpartum Doula
My passion into wellness began with a Bachelor of Science in Food and Nutrition from Louisiana Tech University. From there my journey led to becoming a Licensed Esthetician in 2015 and Licensed Massage Therapist in 2017.
Through my own pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience, I was shocked to find the lack of information on nutrition during this crucial season of a woman’s life. How, after birth, women aren't given the basic knowledge to properly fuel their bodies for recovery, breast feeding and the increased energy needs during the first fragile months postpartum.
After a falling into my own postpartum depletion, I realized how important nutrition was for a new mom.
I stumbled upon the book “the first 40 days” in search of postpartum nourishment. From there, I found a love for Ayurveda and informing new mothers of their “sacred window”.
Thus, the Practical Postpartum was born and my nutrition studies continued.
I believe in taking care of the mind, body and soul are all equal pillars on a postpartum wellness journey. While I have spent the last 10 years specializing in self-care; I am making a full circle back to nutrition. Helping momma’s step into motherhood fully nourished! To prepare her to have a smoother postpartum ride and to create lasting health into her later menopausal years. Rooted in ancient Ayurvedic wisdom - in a modern practical way.

Here are a few of my favorite things:
Camping, hiking, gardening, crossfit, yoga, farmers market strolls and late night porch sitting.
If you know me at all, you know I love pretty much anything that gets me and my family outdoors. Most days, you can find me in my backyard. Digging in the garden with my daughter and husband, while our two pups and cat run wild.
A true lover of nature. From the soil where our food grows -- to the summit of the Half Dome. My appreciation for the outdoors runs deep.
My favorite part is getting to share this love with my daughter. Teaching her to learn the language of Mother Nature. Showing her how our Earth can nourish and provide for us, when we allow her to.
My mission is to nourish and empower the new mother as she transitions into this beautiful and fragile season of motherhood. Through compassionate support, evidence based education, and practical preparation, I strive to help mothers feel nourished and healthy during her sacred window. Giving momma the tools to feel revitalized while providing the support she needs after creating a new precious life, without depleting herself. I aim to be the guiding light that illuminates the path of wellness and nourishment when planning your postpartum journey with ease.
