Christie’s approach combines evidence-based nutrition with compassionate care to empower lasting change. Her mission is to help women feel strong, supported, and symptom-free in their daily lives.
What We Talk About
• Christie journey from fertility and gut health dietitian to specializing in endometriosis and becoming a fierce advocate for misdiagnosed women.
• What endometriosis actually is, how it manifests outside the uterus, and why so many cases go undiagnosed or misunderstood for years.
• Key symptoms beyond period pain: bloating, digestive issues, fatigue, infertility, and how “endo belly” differs from typical bloating.
• The current state of diagnosis: why laparoscopic surgery is still the gold standard and how new advancements in ultrasound are changing access to earlier detection.
• How chronic inflammation, hormonal imbalances, and immune system dysfunction drive endo symptoms, and why gut health is central to managing it.
• Why Christie avoids blanket elimination diets and instead helps clients identify their personal food triggers while building a nourishing, sustainable lifestyle.
• Tools beyond diet: using sleep, movement, nervous system regulation, therapy, and even conventional medicine as part of a personalized endo “toolbox.”
• A powerful success story of a client who overcame debilitating symptoms and conceived naturally after transitioning off hormonal therapy with Christie's support.
