It all starts with a mindset
"We need to stop blaming women for their poor health. My clients often tell me they aren't believed when they share their symptoms and health concerns with their health provider.
My goal is to help you feel heard, and support you while we uncover the root cause of your health concerns. So many women are confused about what to eat and which health advice they should listen to. I help people work out what's right for them."
-Megan Pfeffer, founder of I Choose Health
