Life as a PCOS Mama
Its Laura Kate: A Brand New Chapter Begins
Hello and welcome! I’m Laura-Kate, and this is the beginning of something new and exciting. As a nutritional therapist specialising in pre and postnatal programmes, and a mum of two who has lived with PCOS, I know first hand the struggles women can face in their own bodies – and I’m here to tell you there is hope.
Read my story Healthy recipesAlong my own path to healing, I found just how much nutrition can change things. With small but meaningful adjustments to how I ate and lived, I was able to manage my PCOS symptoms – and also realise my dream of becoming a mum, twice over!
You’re Not Alone at Its Laura Kate
These days I’m passionate about passing on what I’ve learned to others walking a similar road. Here on the site and across my social media, I share guidance and support to help you feel more in control of your health and fertility.
My approach goes further than that, though. I believe it matters to feel connected to the food we eat, so I grow as much of my own fruit and veg as possible at home and on my allotment. Raising my own food from seed to plate means it’s both nourishing and sustainable.
Its Laura Kate Is Here to Support You
Across the site you’ll find plenty of resources – tips, recipes and guidance on bringing healthy, whole foods into your everyday diet. Whether you’re dealing with PCOS, fertility challenges, or simply want to live a little healthier, I’m here to support you at every step.
I’m not taking on new one-to-one clients at the moment, but my inbox is always open for questions, advice or a friendly chat – so feel free to send me a message on Instagram and I’ll reply as soon as I can.
Use the menu to find the topics you’re looking for. There’s plenty more content on its way, so do check back often. Plant the seed and take that first step towards a healthier, happier you.
