Hi, I’m Autumn!
My wellness journey truly began in 2019. After the loss of my father a few years earlier compounded with a lot of residual stress and grief, my tank was on empty and I knew it. I felt lethargic, I gained about thirty pounds, I couldn’t focus, I couldn’t get out of bed, my hair was falling out, I had acne… the list went on. I was clearly not in a good place mentally, physically or emotionally.
Having always been very interested in health and wellness, I found my way to a functional doctor who discovered that essentially all of my levels were in the red and needed lots of love: nutrients, minerals, adrenals, thyroid, etc. I also had high levels of mercury in my system!
As a result, I dove into all things wellness. I became a certified Institute of Integrative Nutrition Health Coach specializing in Hormone Health and slowly started transforming all areas of my life. I did the emotional work while working with a team of health professionals to heal my body.
Part of that journey was realizing that my toxic load was quite high, so I dove deep into educating myself on products and quickly learned about the shocking lack of regulation. Over time, I switched my products to nontoxic alternatives and learned to feel confident navigating ingredient lists in order to make healthy and clean purchasing decisions. It wasn’t easy!
Through my own journey, I realized how overwhelming and confusing this process can be, not to mention how disheartening it is to learn that you truly have to be your own advocate. I’m here to make sure you too can feel good about the products you use for yourself, your home or your family by offering personalized support. I can’t wait to share what I know - and my favorite nontoxic products - with you!
ABOUT ME…
My husband and I live in Manhattan Beach, CA where we are excited to begin the journey of parenthood - baby boy due at the end of summer! We love taking walks on the Strand with our firstborn Baxter and enjoy meals and board games at home - our favorite is Rummikub. You can often find me cozied up with a book and a matcha latte. I am an aspiring/struggling cook and enjoy meditating, reading, doing puzzles, traveling and chocolate!
My Approach
educate
Did you know about the lack of regulation around the products sold in our country? I didn’t! While legislature is (slowly) improving, it’s important to learn how to be your own advocate.
INSPIRE
I will help break down how chemicals and common various ingredients impact our health and make it easy for you to navigate this overwhelming rabbit hole so you can make healthier choices.
EMPOWER
Most importantly, my goal is for you to become confident and able to navigate the confusing world of ingredients, marketing claims and the endless amount of product choices. You got this!
