YOU’RE ON FERTILE GROUND

From building a strong fertility foundation to rebuilding after birth, I help women nourish themselves with care rooted in ancestral wisdom, real food, and modern tools.

“Your labs look normal” is not an answer.

Neither is “unexplained infertility”, “that’s just part of pregnancy”, or “every new mom is exhausted”.

You know your body better than anyone, yet so many women are brushed off and told to wait and see. Your body isn’t broken and your symptoms aren’t random, you just need someone to help you make sense of what your body is asking for.

I believe your body knows how to heal, adapt, and find its balance when it's given the right nourishment. My work starts with real food, ancestral living, and reconnection: to your body, your cycles, the seasons, and the wisdom women have carried for generations.

Whether you're balancing your hormones, preparing to conceive, growing a healthy baby, or rebuilding after birth, you deserve care that's personal and rooted in both evidence-based care and ancestral wisdom.

Hi, I’m Lauren Bailey

FUNCTIONAL NUTRITIONIST, HTMA PRACTITIONER, AND BIRTH & POSTPARTUM DOULA

I grew up in Missouri playing in creek beds, foraging for mushrooms with my dad, and cooking fresh meals with my mom. Somewhere along the way, I lost that connection, and after walking through my own illnesses and nutrient depletions, I realized how much our disconnection from food, community, and ancestral practices was making us sick.

So I followed that thread back to experimenting in the kitchen again, to Montana to pursue my master's in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine, and into birth rooms as a doula. In every space, I noticed that women were craving the same thing: deep nourishment and real connection.

I am passionate about working with women through every stage of fertility and motherhood and love helping women find their way back to their bodies through real food, seasonal rhythms, and whole-woman care.
