How I Work With Women

Cycle & Hormone Balance

Supporting women with irregular periods, painful cycles, PMS, PCOS, endometriosis, thyroid issues, and fertility struggles, turning the cycle into a guide, not a frustration
Food as Medicine

Using nutrition to heal the gut, support thyroid function, ease acne, regulate weight, improve fertility, and nourish women through pregnancy, postpartum and beyond.
Holistic Lifestyle Shifts

Addressing stress, sleep, movement, and environment with simple, sustainable changes that reduce fatigue, stabilize mood, and strengthen overall health.
Support Across Life Stages

From preparing for conception to navigating IVF, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, menopause, and overall big life changes. I help women feel more confident, balanced, and supported in every phase.

Why I became a Hormone Health Coach

Hi, I’m Leslie!

I know what it feels like to live with hormone imbalance — severe acne after stopping the pill, painful and irregular periods, questioning your fertility. I also know the toll big life transitions can take: navigating postpartum while going through heartbreak, stress, and thyroid struggles.

Through my own healing and my training as a certified Holistic Hormone Health Coach, I’ve learned how food, lifestyle, and daily rituals can transform the way we feel. Now I guide girls and women worldwide to find balance, boost fertility, and feel more at home in their bodies, in every season of life.

Testimonials

"I’ve worked now several times with Leslie to help me meal plan and make it through the intense breastfeeding. She was incredibly knowledgeable on how ingredients can work for me (and my son), and created several delicious plates and snacks for us along the way. It made the process for me quite enjoyable because I had a much better understanding of what I was eating and the effects of the ingredients into my system. These things are congruent (knowledge of food and enjoyable eating) and she took over the hard work and my only job was to reap the reward of tasty plates!! Thank you again ❤️"

"Have been ordering from Leslie since a couple of years. Keep coming back as it’s too good not to. And love she can make anything vegan too"

Anna Rossener
“My team and I were fortunate enough to have Leslie join us for a couple days in Douro (Portugal). Not only did she plan ahead and source all the food items, she also confirmed the menu she curated us beforehand to ensure we were happy with her mealplan, and each meal was deliciously executed! Leslie elevated our experience by preparing a variety of healthy, warm and flavorful plates. I would highly recommend her, and will absolutely be using her services in the near future!”

Daniëlle
“Working with Leslie on my retreats has been amazing. Her food is delicious, homemade from scratch and there is always just enough, which I value a lot because I don't like wasting food. You can taste the love and effort that goes into her food. Leslie is a lovely person to work with as well, always on time and proactive with ideas and following up on requests from my end. I'd definitely work with her again.”

Myrthe van Gameren
Health Coach
“Leslie came in ready to cook! She prepared a 6-day feast for our 30 participants, and the flavorful dishes were new and delicious each day. You can tell Leslie cooks with her whole heart- I fell in love on the first bite and know you will too. Leslie’s spirit and enthusiasm for taking on our large group were equally wonderful, and I’m very thankful she helped make the week a success!”
