Your Guide to Holistic Health, from One Parent to Another
Ever found yourself awake at 3 AM, frantically Googling your child's symptoms and feeling lost in a sea of conflicting advice? You're not alone, mama!
That pit-in-your-stomach feeling when your kiddo comes home with yet another snotty nose, knowing you'll have to navigate the "sick" care system again? Yeah, I've been there too.
Maybe you're hesitant about filling another prescription. Perhaps you've learned the hard way that antibiotics don't touch viral infections. Or maybe you've had one too many rushed doctor visits where you didn't feel truly heard.
From Sleepless Nights to Empowered Insights
Like many of you, I've been through those heart-wrenching moments of parental concern:
Pacing the floor with a feverish little one at 2 AM
That split-second decision of "ER visit or wait it out?" when your kid takes a tumble
The frustration of navigating school health policies (No, I can't pick her up right this second for a mild cough!)
These shared experiences? They're the fuel that drives my passion for empowering families with natural, effective health solutions that actually fit into our chaotic, beautiful lives.
βshe taught meβ
"Dr. Jen is a highly intuitive, sensitive magical healer. Her level of presence made it easy to feel relaxed right away. She checked up on how I was doing and sent a detailed summary of healing remedies, but with lots of options around how to approach them and useful information. In addition, she taught me tricks on how best to set forward on my healing journey, and all in ways that all tailored toward who I am....which she sees so clearly, somehow, magically."

A great health practitionerβ¦
My experience with Dr. Jen has been outstanding. Her knowledge spans many disciplines, as a naturopath, she understands a vast amount of information, enabling her to go a number of different routes with her insights and suggestions. I feel she understands my need for information to become responsible for my health, and offers it freely. I definitely recommend her to anyone who has these goals in mind.
Beyond the Clinic: The 'Real' Dr. Jen
When I'm not in the clinic or creating content for Wise Owl Medicine, you might find me:
β Exploring new hiking trails with my family (and debating whether that plant we saw is edible β spoiler: we always check before trying!)
β Experimenting with dairy-free chocolate recipes (60% cacao or more, please!)
β Curled up with a good book and a cup of herbal tea (usually something I've wildcrafted myself)
β Planning my next international adventure (15 countries and counting!)
