Hi, I’m Rita 👋 and I help women break free from bloat, fatigue, painful periods, and “mystery symptoms” through holistic nutrition and functional root-cause support.
My story starts a lot like yours.
I was diagnosed with endometriosis, Interstitial Cystitis, and struggled with relentless IBS symptoms. I can’t tell you how many times I went to the doctor desperate for answers... only to be told my "labs were normal.” Meanwhile, I was drowning in food sensitivities, pain that controlled my life, and exhaustion.
Like so many women, I was handed bandaid solutions and told to just manage my chronic illness. But deep down, I knew there had to be another way.
Fed up and determined, I dove into research, learned from leading women’s health experts, connected with others living with endo, and eventually found my way to functional nutrition.
Working with a practitioner who looked beyond surface-level labs changed everything. For the first time, I was able to uncover the root causes of my symptoms and finally feel like myself again.
That journey is why I do this work.
Today, I guide women with endometriosis, PMDD, adenomyosis, PCOS, IBS, autoimmunity, and chronic hormone + gut issues to find lasting relief and balance. Because you deserve more than “managing it.” You deserve to feel vibrant, radiant, and at home in your body.
And if you're ready to do this...
