Hello my Friend.
So this is me in a nutshell; I am author of the upcoming book The Witch’s Guide to Wellness (Pre-order HERE), Certified in Holistic Nutrition, Celtic Kitchen Witch, mother, wife, breast cancer survivor, absolute lover of nature, and part-time forest fairy.
I believe that everything carries its own magic and energy from the plants, to the stones, to our food, and that which we have inside ourselves. I am so happy to have you here! Let me welcome you on this journey of magic, wellness, and self-discovery.
There is magick in the air.
- Have you ever just felt different or questioned what is ‘normal’?
- Felt pulled towards nature and magick but not really sure what that even meant?
- Strived to eat better but found all of the info out there rather confusing?
- Worried about climate change and contemplated what you can do to help?
- Wondered how you could use more natural methods to heal and nourish yourself?
- Or maybe you want to nurture your spiritual side to help achieve a sense of calm and balance in your way too busy life?
I’ve been there and I feel you!
My mission here is to help you embrace holistic wellness and your own magickal power, in an inviting way enabling you to live a cleaner, greener, more spiritually fulfilling, and ultimately happier life without feeling overwhelmed.
~ Say this with me ~ ‘You are amazing.’

You are a person, a magnificent star in this universe made up of body, soul, and mind. Adopting a holistic approach to your wellness will have you reaching goals, feeling stronger, happier, and owning your true magick.
All while being kinder, gentler and more in tune with our environment. We must embrace nature to achieve our own optimal health. I believe this fully. We simply can’t survive without it.

Me Out of the Nutshell…
I’ve been drawn to magick and the earth for as long as I can remember. And, have been a solitary practitioner of the craft for over 20 years.
Though I don’t much like labels, I do identify well with the terms Celtic Witch and Kitchen Witch.
My practice is deeply rooted in nature, and I believe that everything carries it’s own energy and magick (including the foods we eat!). I have also always had a love and fascination for all things Celtic; the dieties, lore, and traditions. My Irish heritage may have something to do with that.
Adopting a holistic way of life has been a natural progression since 2012. I am a Certified Holistic Nutrition Practitioner with additional training in herbalism and body detoxification.
My Beginning
I have been, very slowly, adopting a more natural lifestyle since 2012. I had become wary of the toxins in our environment and in the products we use each and every day. On our skin no less.
So I decided to undergo training in natural beauty product crafting. That training was the first step of many that have made up the last 8 years.
From there I began to eliminate other harmful substances in my environment, turned vegetarian, and then vegan. This type of life has a domino effect. Make a change and others will follow.
A Devastating Wake-up Call
There I was going about my life throughout those years happy with my changes and feeling like I was being pretty damn healthy if I do say so myself. Then 2017 happened.
Enter my huge wake-up call.
In December I was diagnosed with triple positive, stage 2, breast cancer. You may view a full post about receiving my diagnose HERE if you want to read more about it.
Talk about a smack in the face. Truth be told I was doing many healthy things in my life absolutely. However, I was also stressed out, suffering from anxiety, tired, overworked, and eating out probably a bit too often. There was just never any time. Owning a small business and having a constantly on the go lifestyle can do that to ya.
I was burnt out and fully believe these factors contributed greatly to my disease. I was not nurturing myself physically or spiritually and now my body was screaming.
These are not the only factors when it comes to getting a cancer diagnosis I am well aware. There are so many factors to be considered and no-one ever really knows the why of it all. But taking proper care of ourselves should never be taken for granted and goes a damn long way in the fight against disease.
The Here & Now
Fast forward to now, over two years from the start of that journey. It’s been less than 1 year since I have been completely finished with treatments. But I am finally on my way to getting my life and my health back on track.
I am on a personal mission to a whole new level of wellness. The last couple of years really lit a fire under my ass to achieve that life I had been envisioning for myself. Life is too short to accept anything less.
I still have some challenges to overcome, my own health goals to reach, and a blog that deserves more of my attention! One day at a time right?
Diving into my blog is a 2020 goal of mine. I started this blog in 2017 a few months before my diagnosis and let’s just say it has not yet become what I initially envisioned. Time to change that!
Thank you so much!
If you’ve made it all the way to this point, I thank you! I am thrilled to have you here on this adventure with me.
