find your calm during motherhood
Welcome! I'm TaraI’m a certified herbalist, inspiring moms to feel more confident using herbal medicine
and holistic practices to reduce medications after birth.
Have you ever felt..
- worried about your intrusive thoughts that came out of nowhere
- obsessed with not sleeping and think you need medication for insomnia
- knowing there’s a deeper reason your body is struggling to recover from birth
- concerned with using herbs and homeopathy for yourself or your small children
- overwhelmed with motherhood and afraid you’ll be passing these anxiety symptoms to your kids
If you’ve ever had these thoughts. You’re in the right place.

I know what it feels like to…
- wake up startled and not able to fall asleep again
- struggle with heart palpitations, panic attacks, and intrusive thoughts
- finally, figure out I had PMDD – a really bad PMS that causes anger and depression
- feel completely overwhelmed with the chaos of motherhood
- only want to use natural remedies with myself and my children
I taught Pilates and fitness for over thirteen years when I had my twins in 2013. I thought I knew how to heal my body.
Little did I know, that sleep deprivation can wreck your body. I struggled with postpartum insomnia, anger, depression, and anxiety. I wanted to get to the root cause of these symptoms – instead of just taking medications. I spent the last $2k on my credit card to get to the root cause of my postpartum symptoms; I enrolled to become a certified women’s herbal educator with Dr. Aviva Romm to find out why this was happening and how I could heal naturally.
What I learned from the course, far exceeded my expectations.
- diet is always first and our gut health is connected to our anxiety, depression, moods, and PMS symptoms
- supplements can help “fill the gap” of what we’re missing in our postpartum healing
- adaptogens can prevent burnout
- and, a combined herbal medicine tincture can help soothe all organs
After one dose of Ashwagandha – I felt a shift in my health.
With still a lot to learn, I decided to close my beloved Pilates studio of seven years and became a full-time women’s herbal educator – offering private health consultations and online herbal education.
Then in November 2020, my husband passed away in front of me. The trauma from this experience rattled my nervous system. When Lyme disease hit in 2021, I was forced to slow down and address my nervous system.
healing your nervous system is key to healing trauma
And that’s when I realized how very important it is for us to heal our nervous system.
In The NEW revised Present Momma, we’ll combine exercises to soothe your nervous system, along with herbal medicine and fast-acting homeopathic remedies to heal your postpartum anxiety.
I hope you’ll join me!
