LET'S GET STARTED. 💛
Hi I'm Elly
Once upon a hangover, I was burnt out, bloated, and blaming my hormones for everything.
Drinking was my coping tool, my reward, my escape hatch. My gut was a mess. My moods were all over the place. And no amount of green smoothies or “self-care Sundays” were fixing it.
Fast forward to now?
I’m alcohol-free, my gut is thriving, my hormones are finally behaving—and I coach other women to do the same.
Not with shame.
Not with perfectionism.
Not with a million restrictive rules.
But by focusing on 3 core things:
-
Breaking up with booze
-
Healing the gut
-
Balancing hormones
My 3 Pillars of Healing
Break Up with Booze
You don’t need to hit rock bottom to decide alcohol isn’t serving you. I help you redefine your relationship with drinking—without shame, labels, or deprivation.
Heal the Gut
Your gut is your second brain. Bloating, anxiety, skin issues? That’s your body asking for help. We rebuild your gut from the inside out with personalized, functional strategies.
Balance Hormones
Mood swings, fatigue, PMS, or burnout? Your hormones might be out of whack. I’ll help you reset your system so your body can do what it’s meant to: support you.
Sound Familiar?
Realizing something’s gotta change—whether it’s your relationship with alcohol, your diet, your hormones, or your whole damn life—IS WILDLY UNCOMFORTABLE.
That “is this all there is?” feeling?
The quiet panic that you’re running out of time?
The nagging sense that you’re meant for more—but you’re stuck in patterns that keep you small?
Yeah. That’s the turning point.
All change lives on the other side of this discomfort.
And the good news? You don’t have to do it alone.
You tell yourself “just one glass”... but wake up groggy, bloated, and disappointed—again.
You’re crushing it for everyone else, but your own health keeps sliding to the bottom of the list.
You feel exhausted by 3pm, wired at night, and your moods are all over the damn place.
You’ve Googled “perimenopause symptoms” more times than you’d like to admit.
You know booze is making things worse—but quitting feels overwhelming and lonely.
You want to be a better example for your kids, but you’re stuck in the same old loop.
You say you’ll eat better, drink less, go to bed earlier... but it never sticks.
You’re successful on paper—but deep down, you feel disconnected, drained, and unfulfilled.
My approach may feel different than what you've tried before, and that's a good thing.
No Labels, Just a New Conversation About Wellness
Most people hesitate to reevaluate their relationship with alcohol because they don’t want to be labeled.
-
They don’t see themselves as having a “problem.”
-
But deep down, they know something’s off.
-
They’re drinking more than they’d like.
-
They’re constantly managing the aftermath—fatigue, brain fog, shame, bloating, hormone chaos.
-
They’re stuck in a loop that feels normal... because it’s everywhere.
Here’s the truth:
This isn’t about whether you need to stop drinking.
It’s about whether you’d be more well—mentally, physically, emotionally—without it.
Let’s Talk About What Alcohol’s Really Doing
-
It wrecks your gut—damaging your microbiome and gut lining, triggering inflammation, and fueling anxiety and mood swings.
-
It throws your hormones out of whack—disrupting your cycle, messing with your sleep, energy, metabolism, and mood.
-
It raises your risk of cancer—even in small amounts. Especially breast cancer.
-
It keeps your nervous system on edge while tricking your brain into thinking it’s relaxing.
And yet... it’s glorified. Everywhere.
We joke about needing wine to “cope,” while quietly suffering the very symptoms alcohol is making worse.
No one wants to say it—but alcohol is the number one thing holding so many women back from feeling truly well.
And the fastest path to healing? Is cutting it out entirely.
Why Is This So Hard? Because Alcohol Is Everywhere
Drinking is so deeply normalized that questioning it feels rebellious.
Try to stop, and you quickly see how tightly alcohol is woven into social life, identity, and even self-worth.
I’ve been there.
I used to take breaks just to prove I could. But I was miserable—white-knuckling it, counting the days until I could drink again.
What I didn’t realize back then was that alcohol wasn’t just a habit—it was a belief system.
I believed I needed it to unwind, to belong, to have fun.
But those beliefs were never mine. They were sold to me.
