Hi, I’m Stasha.

I grew up believing books were portals.
They were how I learned about bravery, longing, magic, heartbreak, and hope — long before I understood those things in my own life.

I still believe stories save us.
But somewhere along the way, I realized something else needed saving too: my energy, my hormones, my relationship with my own body.

Books helped me understand the world.
Healing is teaching me how to live inside myself.

Why “Books, Hormones & Chocolate”?

Because life is rarely just one thing.

It’s late-night reading sessions and early-morning fatigue.
It’s nostalgia and new beginnings.
It’s mood swings and metaphors.
It’s trying to balance blood sugar while rereading a childhood favorite.
It’s wanting softness and strength at the same time.

This space is where all of that gets to coexist.

What You’ll Find Here

📚 Reflections on the books that shaped me — from childhood comfort reads to the stories I’m devouring now.

🍫 Cozy rituals and lifestyle shifts that make being human feel a little less overwhelming.

My Health Coaching Journey

Credentials & Training

I’m a Certified Health Coach through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN), where I trained in:

• Hormone balance & women’s health
• Bio-individual nutrition
• Gut health fundamentals
• Blood sugar regulation
• Stress & lifestyle medicine
• Habit formation & behavior change

My training integrates modern nutritional science with a holistic, whole-person approach — because your health isn’t just about food. It’s about sleep, joy, boundaries, purpose, relationships, and yes… sometimes chocolate.

My path into health coaching wasn’t about chasing perfection — it was about seeking clarity. I’ve experienced how confusing it can be to navigate fatigue, mood changes, metabolism shifts, and the endless noise of “wellness advice.”

I don’t believe in extremes.
I believe in education, experimentation, and deep compassion for your body.

As I continue to grow my practice, this space will grow too — becoming a grounded, informed, and gentle resource for women who want to understand their hormones, energy, and health without fear or shame.

In the coming months, I’ll be opening spaces for 1:1 health coaching for women who want support navigating energy, hormones, and sustainable lifestyle shifts — without overwhelm.

If you love stories.
If you want to feel at home in your body.
If you believe chocolate is occasionally medicinal.

You belong here.

Let’s build something warm and wise together.
