Maddie is an integrative health medicine practitioner and clinical herbalist who believes that there is beauty in understanding how the body naturally works, especially when it comes to hormones and the menstrual cycle.  As someone who had suffered from serious health issues in the past, Maddie is no stranger to unhealthy routines and approaching health from a place of fear. There was a time when she struggled with her relationship with food and her hormones, and conventional medicine wasn’t helping. Eventually, she realized that our bodies weren’t designed to be restricted or controlled the way society dictates it should be. That’s why she finally got rid of the old labels and formed Peace Love Hormones, a woman’s health brand where she creates organic, herbal tinctures for hormone health, fertility, gut health, liver health, nervous system support, and more. She also educates and empowers women of all ages to take back control of their health through her podcast and social media channels.
