Menopause Nutrition
Pillars of Health
in a Wild Woman’s Kitchen
-
Real Food
Real food is the foundation of vibrant health: offering nutrients, energy and building blocks your body was designed to thrive on. When we return to whole, unprocessed ingredients, we create the conditions for lasting nourishment and wellbeing.
-
Nature Connection
We are not separate from nature, we are nature. Reconnecting with the seasons, the wild world, and the natural rhythms of your body brings a deep sense of alignment and clarity. It helps you eat, move, and live in ways that are both nourishing and intuitive.
-
Simple Living
Health doesn’t have to be complicated. When we simplify, we make space for what matters most. Slowing down, reducing clutter (physical and mental), and finding rhythm in the everyday creates a sense of calm and control that supports true well-being.
-
Food Preparation
Cooking is a sacred act of self-care. Learning to prepare meals from scratch—using traditional, time-honored methods—builds confidence, connection, and vitality. When you know how to nourish yourself, you become your own healer.
-
Imperfection
There is no perfect way to eat, live, or cook—only what works for you right now. Embracing imperfection allows you to grow without guilt, experiment with curiosity, and create sustainable change rooted in self-compassion.

TESTIMONIALS
-
From the very first session with Michelle, I felt some relief. Michelle really listened and was not inclined to jump to solutions, but to ask more questions. This made it easier for me to see what changes I needed to make. We are finding so much less struggle at meal times and so much more ease and joy. I can’t thank Michelle enough.

After working with Michelle I felt more sure of what I was cooking, how to cook it and when to cook it. The grocery store doesn't feel so overwhelming since I have a direction for meals each week. I feel so good knowing I am making the best food for my family.
