Coffee, cake, buzzing atmosphere, and nutritional therapy, what more do you need?
Our Bishop's Stortford meet up in March at the Green Dot Cafe was filled with plenty of familiar faces and a few new ones too! If you've been to our events, you'll know all too well how much we love shining the spotlight on our members where they get an opportunity to showcase their business and share the story behind it.
Hayley, a nutritional therapist was this month's showcase and brought us on a journey of tears, frustration, and ultimately enlightenment and triumph as every good story should! We learned that nutritional therapy isn't dieting, it's not even necessarily cutting out a ton of things. It's actually just working with a trained professional, listening to your body, and giving it what it needs.
Hayley discovered her calling after some health issues prevented her from starting the family that she wanted. After traditional medical channels and a few dismissive (ahem male) GPs failed, she sought another way. Within three months of taking control herself through nutritional changes, she was pregnant. She assured us that by focusing on nutrition, it's possible to treat all kinds of things from eczema to yes, even vaginal dryness! We realised once again, as women, we don't get taught much about our bodies, left in the dark and too ashamed to come forward with our ailments. Hayley's story, a wonderful takeaway and message of empowerment, was another reminder for us to take control of the conversation and step into the light!
