WELCOME TO
hormonal
An online community designed to support you in every area of your hormone health.
Have you been wanting to work on your hormone health for a while but haven’t quite known where to start?
Are you looking for guidance, support and no-BS advice from someone who actually knows what they’re talking about?
Have you felt deeply disappointed by the support you’ve received from your doctor? (You’ve been told ‘there’s nothing wrong with you’ but deep down you KNOW you don’t feel like you used to).
Do you feel overwhelmed by all the contradictory advice there is out there?
Do you find yourself wondering whether you should intermittently fast or go plant-based or try the ketogenic diet to balance your hormones?
Do you have a cupboard full of expensive and random supplements that you have no idea what they do (or whether they actually work?
Have you downloaded loads of free guides on hormones, looked at them once and never gone back to them again?
Do you wish you could get your hormones tested PROPERLY - in a way that looks at patterns and imbalances, and that actually links up to your symptoms?*
And do you wish someone could actually explain to you what these imbalances mean…and what to do about them?*
Have you tried to work more closely with your cycle but ended up feeling like a failure because the general advice just doesn’t seem to apply to you?
And…are you just fucking fed up and want to stop wasting so much time looking for answers?
Then welcome to
hormonal my love
A one-stop shop for everything hormone-related: recipes, masterclasses, a drop-in Hormone Clinic and on-tap advice from a highly experienced hormone expert (me!)
For too long our hormonal symptoms have been gaslit and belittled.
For too long the only options available to us have been the contraceptive pill or other forms of medication.
For too long we have been made to feel that WE are the problem, instead of the messed up system we are all operating under.
For too long access to hormone experts has been out of reach financially for many of us.
Hormonal is the antidote to all this
Hormonal is a space where you will be educated and as a consequence feel empowered by your hormone health.
A space where you’ll learn how to eat, move and live in a way that supports your hormones.
A space where we focus on optimising your hormones, and on embracing your ebbs and flows.
A space to be seen and heard in all your wobbles and triumphs.
A place that is the complete opposite to sitting in a doctor’s clinic and being told ‘there’s nothing wrong with you’ (or ‘just take the pill’).
All for £55 a month (because access to hormone support should be for EVERYONE!)
How hormonal came about:
A few years ago I held a hormone workshop at Shambala Festival.
The energy of that packed tent was incredible, people were turning up hungover and on no sleep to learn more about how they could support their hormones and cycles.
Listening to the questions being asked and witnessing many tender moments of vulnerable sharing I KNEW there was a deep need for more spaces like this.
And so the seed for Hormonal was planted.
Welcome to your hormone-healing community!
A space where we can heal together.
A space where no question is too silly.
A space where you can receive guidance from a hormone expert and feel fully supported in your hormone journey.
A space where I can support YOU (at the fraction of the price that it would cost to get my one to one support).
A space to feel empowered in your hormone health.
Up until now the focus of my work has been one to one work - I absolutely love guiding women through their hormone journey but I want to support more of you.
I want to create a community.
I want us to create shock waves that ripple out to everyone we know so that no one has to sit in confusion about their hormones or feel gaslit about their symptoms anymore.

So how does hormonal work?
Hormonal is a monthly online membership. You can join and leave at any time (although I would recommend you give it a minimum of three months as this is generally how long it takes to experience shifts in your hormones - they’re slow movers!)
(Obviously I would love for you to stay on forever so we can build our community of Hormone Queens!!)
Every month we will focus on a theme (could be anything from how to prepare an easy hormone-loving breakfast, to body image or how to clean out your cupboards of hormone-disrupting chemicals, or move through funky PMS).
There will be one teaching call plus one Q&A drop in call..
There will also be a monthly Hormone Clinic where you can bring your specific hormone questions.
There’s also the option of getting your hormones tested with a follow up call with me at a special discounted member’s rate (the cost will depend on the type of test you decide to go for). You’ll also receive a full step by step personalised plan with food and supplement recommendations.
There will also be a Facebook group (yes, I know we’re all a bit tired of facebook groups but this will be different - I promise!) Think of it more as a cosy gathering around a campfire where we come to vent, celebrate and share our deepest and most intimate thoughts. (I can guarantee you’re not the first person to harbour murderous thoughts towards your partner just before your period!)
And of course you will have access to a huge collection of recipes and meal plans all designed to love up on hormones, plus a growing library of resources that you can access at any time.
And if that wasn’t enough, you get access to my signature cycle synching programme - Master Your Sacred Seasons.
All for £55 per month (because the hormone health revolution starts NOW!)
The patriarchy has brainwashed us into thinking that having ebbs and flows and highs and lows are bad.
That there’s something wrong with us.
That we need to be fixed.
All that ends now.
By reclaiming and rewriting what it means to be ‘hormonal’.
Imagine just for one second that calling someone ‘hormonal’ was a compliment - that it was an acknowledgement of their ability to navigate different emotional states.
That it was an affirmation of their willingness to feel, express and truly step into their power.
Fuck.
That’s what I’m talking about.
And that’s why I’ve chosen to name this space Hormonal.
Why call it hormonal?
Because it’s time to rewrite and reclaim what this word means.
For too long the word ‘hormonal’ has been used to gaslight and belittle our ebbs and flows.
YES, we want to aim to feel our best all month long, YES we want to optimise our hormones.
BUT that doesn’t mean we have to sit quietly in a corner, people pleasing and suppressing all our emotions and being a “good girl” (don't even get me started on the good girl theme!!!)
I honestly believe half of our struggles lie in the deep conditioning we’ve received since the day we were born that it is “unbecoming” of a lady to express her emotions (yep, I’m using a Jane Austen-like phrase there to emphasise just how little things have changed!)
Are you with me?
DOES THAT MEAN WE’LL ALL BE EMOTIONAL WRECKS ALL THE TIME?
NO.
It means that we’ll sit more comfortably with feeling differently day to day.
It means that we’ll learn to harness the powers of our ebbs and flows
CAN I ONLY JOIN HORMONAL IF I STILL HAVE A PERIOD?
NO.
Hormonal is open to anyone who wants to work with their hormones and understand their body better.
Whether you’re having regular cycles, are on the contraceptive pill, are in the throes of perimenopause or have crossed into menopause everyone is welcome.
I firmly believe we can all learn from each other and my vision is to create an inclusive community that welcomes anyone who wants to join.
(This is exactly how ancient hormonal wisdom used to be passed on after all).
WHAT IF I HAVE A SPECIFIC HORMONAL CONDITION LIKE ENDO/ADENO?PCOS/FIBROIDS etc?
You are very welcome to join - one of the main aims of Hormonal is to harness the power of community.
To seek solace and comfort from gathering in a group.
All the monthly themes will still be relevant to you, as will all the resources.
You are even welcome to bring your specific hormone questions to the monthly Q&A and Hormone Clinic. You will always be signposted to the best place to get extra support.
(And if you need extra support you can always book in for a discounted one to one with me).
WHY NOW?
For too long access to hormone experts has been the preserve of those with money to spare (I have been painfully aware of this for a long time and I apologise for taking so long in creating an alternative way of accessing my support).
It’s time to create a space to learn, heal, connect and be supported.
It’s time to unite.
It’s time to join Hormonal.
Are you in???
ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY!
See you on the inside my love!
READY TO JOIN THE PARTY?
A little bit about me…
If you’re on this page you’ve probably already been in my world for a little while, but for those of you who don’t know me, I’m Giulietta, a hormone nutritionist.
I’m OBSESSED with all things menstrual cycles and hormones. I’ve had my own wobbles with hormone health over the years - I was diagnosed with fibroids at 35 and told there were no options other than the pill (which had previously turned me into a psychopath). I decided to take matters into my own hands and started looking at how nutrition could help me. I’m now 46 and my fibroids haven’t grown in 11 years (coincidence? I think not!)
I’m deep into perimenopause now and I’m not going to lie, there have been some real challenges. (Many people say one of the best things about me is that I keep it real.) Every single curveball has taught me how to get to know myself better and I’ve been able to cultivate greater body literacy and compassion for myself (which I think lies at the heart of hormone health).
I get mad when I hear the message that we should feel the same every day (erm, have you seen the ebbs and flows of a menstrual cycle????)
I’m not going to promise you perfect hormone health (I don’t think that exists). But what I CAN promise you are tools to help you understand and support your body better and a space where you can be witnessed in your full hormonal glory.
I also promise to shower you with unconditional love and support as we navigate the exhilarating (and often bumpy) hormonal ride of life together.
* Please note: hormone testing and test interpretation come at an additional cost to the monthly membership fee although as a member of Hormonal you will receive a discounted price for testing and test interpretation.
