Meet Lucy
Talitha Koum is the Aramaic phrase spoken by Our Lord as He took a little girl by the hand and called her back to life:
“Little girl, I say to you, arise.”
It is a moment of profound tenderness — and one that reflects how I believe healing is meant to unfold.
I’m Lucy — a Certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Certified GAPS Practitioner, wife, and mama to two earthside littles. I am devoted to Jesus through Mary, rooted in the Traditional Latin Mass, and deeply shaped by the natural world — wildcrafting, fermenting, exploring the Pacific Northwest, and finding beauty in simple, nourishing rhythms of life.
This work did not begin with credentials.
My Path to This Work
My journey into nutrition and wellness began during a season when my own health had quietly unraveled. After years of low-grade illness, I was navigating severe menstrual dysfunction, a significant Hashimoto’s flare, digestive issues, chronic pain, and exhaustion that no longer allowed me to simply push through.
Discovering real, ancestral food marked a turning point. Slowly, symptoms eased and clarity returned. That personal healing journey led me to formal training through the Nutritional Therapy Association, and later to advanced study under Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride, becoming a Certified GAPS Practitioner.
More importantly, it taught me this:
Healing is not about force.
It is about nourishment, patience, and listening to the body.
How I Support Women
Through my own experiences with chronic illness, infertility, and motherhood, I understand the fear and frustration that often accompany a woman’s path back to health.
I work primarily with women — especially mothers — navigating digestive and hormonal imbalances, fertility concerns, pregnancy, postpartum depletion, and long seasons of exhaustion.
These women are not broken.
They are depleted.
My approach is rooted in whole-food, faith-aligned nourishment, offered through classes, seasonal programs, and guided educational resources. This work is informed by functional blood chemistry, fertility education, Catholic moral bioethics, and a deep respect for the way God designed the body to heal.
There are no quick fixes here.
No extremes.
No pressure to “bounce back.”
Instead, the focus is on rebuilding foundations so the body can move out of survival mode and into steadiness — allowing vitality, fertility, and presence to return in their proper time.
My Hope for You
Talitha Koum Wellness exists to offer education and support that help women rise again — gently supported in body and spirit — so they may live their vocations with greater health, freedom, and peace.
