Hi there!
I'm Ninu, a proud mom of two energetic boys and a passionate advocate for women's health. As a Registered Nurse I was jaded early on in my 17 year nursing career as I didn’t actually see patients getting better. It led me to embark on a transformative journey to resolve my own gut, skin and hormones issues which ultimately led me to shift away from the conventional health system. . I’m thrilled to share my story with you and explain how I've dedicated my life to helping women across Canada regain control of their health once and for all 💪🏼
Compassion & deeply caring as the guiding force
My journey into healthcare began with a deep desire to make a difference in people's lives. However, as I delved into my nursing education, I quickly realized that the conventional healthcare system had its limitations. It seemed that vital aspects of health were often overlooked, leaving patients with only medications or surgery as their options. This left me feeling disheartened and convinced that there had to be a better way. I decided I’d start learning more about nutrition and became a Certified Holistic Nutritional Consultant™ shortly before the birth of my first son. The information I learned was invaluable and finally my deepest knowing that food our medicine led me further away from nursing.
A Shift in Perspective
As I started my career as a nurse, I couldn't continue down that path for my career when it felt out of alignment with my core beliefs. I’m was too stubborn to do so, regardless of the steady pay and flexible hours. I cared more about the patients actually getting better and healthier. The turning point for me came when I had my second child in 2015. Along with the joy of motherhood and 2 years of sleepless nights with him, I began experiencing burnout, digestive issues, allergies, sinus infections, hormonal imbalances, and more. It was a tough period of my life, and I knew I had to seek answers beyond what conventional medicine could offer.
The Quest for Answers
Despite my “normal" blood test results from my doctor and an excuse that is’s normal to be burnt out and bloated in motherhood (after all, I looked fine on the outside), I couldn't ignore the signs my body was sending me any longer. I embarked on a journey into the world of integrative and functional health, discovering that the foundation of all health—and illness—lies within the gut and our response to stress. Armed with this knowledge, I delved deep into addressing these fundamental factors in a way that my doctor had never considered. The results were nothing short of astonishing—my bloating, headaches, and PMS became a distant memory when I tested and addressed my GUT microbiome. It truly was the key to all health - and as Hippocrates (the father of medicine said) “All disease begins in the gut” and he was right.
It was at this moment that I realized the testing doctors were running we not adequate. Blood wasn’t going to show up to be abnormal until disease had already developed but YEARS before, we can look at the microbiome of the gut and turn it all around! I felt compelled to share my newfound wisdom with others, which is where my Happy Gut Program stems from and how it has helped women across Canada since 2021.
This was me back in 2016 in Banff, Alberta. I went on a retreat and took the weekend away from my family as I so badly needed it. I was at a nearby retreat while my husband camped with the kids and I met them here afterwards. I needed a soulful rejuvenating weekend to recommit to my own health and show up as the best mom I could be. I finally started putting myself first and realized it I wanted to show up as an awesome mom and caring wife, I needed to stop denying there was an issue and do the work to heal my gut and my stress. I put away the excuses and delved deep into integrative and functional health to find answers that set me down this path to help other women do the same.
A Radiant Transformation
Today, my life is a testament to the power of integrative health. I have boundless energy, a digestive system free of symptoms, symptom-free and painless regular menstrual cycles, stable moods, and a healthy weight that I effortlessly maintain. My skin is clear, and I've bid farewell to sinus issues, allergies, and headaches. I thoroughly enjoy every single day, playing soccer or camping with my kids, going on epic hikes and adventures, not turning down any offer that lights me up and feeling truly alive! It’s my mission to help you achieve the same vitality so I hope you are part of my world soon!
Empowering Others
My journey is not just about my own transformation but also about helping others find their path to wellness.
Over the years, I've had the privilege of assisting countless patients who've struggled with digestive issues, hormone imbalances, weight concerns, acne, mood swings, and even diagnosed health conditions hypothyroid and various autoimmune disorders. Many of them have experienced remarkable progress, including reduced reliance or complete eradication of medications, relief from pain, restored digestive and hormonal balance, and a newfound confidence in their own bodies. I’ve been called a “god send” twice now - but who’s counting? 😉

What is Integrative Health anyway?
Integrative health is a facet of natural health that looks at multiple health modalities to achieve balanced health. It is bio-individual approach that believes no two people are the same. I believe fundamentally that your body wants to be well and is always trying to heal. Symptoms are simply red flags. We just need to listen to our bodies and uncover the issues causing the symptoms - find the root cause.

I’m the goofiest human.
My family as the witness, I have more silly names, goofy actions and weirdness about me that only they are privy to! I used to laugh a lot as a kid and I think parenthood sometimes feels like a huge serious responsibility and we forget to laugh so I try and bring that out at home and never forget that we are kids at heart too!
I lived in Ecuador for 5 months - here we are caught in a massive torrential downpour!
When my boyfriend (now husband) was finishing completing masters degree, we moved to Ecuador to finish the program. It was an eye opening experience. We met and saw so many amazing people and sights, like this torrential downpour bike ride along the sketchy highway to see waterfalls! We were even held up at gunpoint (luckily not hurt) but it was a wild time! It left us with so much gratitude for our life at home, in Canada. I did somehow learn to enjoy instant coffee there though, appreciating all the different ways to experience life!
I am obsessed with soccer.
Raised by a single mama who was never home to drive me, I had amazing coaches who took me under their wing from the time I was 8 yrs old to drive me to practices, games and tournaments almost every single day.
To this day, I am beyond so grateful for them all. I credit so much of my joy for sports, fitness and teamwork to the dedication & heart-breaking losses that high level team sports brings. It gave me so much confidence in not just sports, but life.
