EMBRACING A HOLISTIC LIFESTYLE: 
A JOURNEY OF PASSION, PURPOSE, AND MOTHERHOOD

ELIDE is more than just a name—it’s a reflection of my heart and the three little souls who inspire everything I create. It represents my deep passion for holistic wellness, a love for nature’s remedies, and a commitment to providing truly nourishing products for families like yours.

A Journey to Healing Through Nature

For years, I searched for a career that truly fulfilled me. With multiple degrees and a long list of interests, I had yet to find something that felt like my true calling. My journey into holistic wellness began over a decade ago, shaped by personal loss, time spent working on a cattle ranch, years of research, and hands-on experiences that changed my perspective on health.

​

One question kept surfacing: Why, in a country with advanced medicine, do we continue to see so much chronic illness?

 

The answer became clear—true wellness isn’t just about treating symptoms. It’s about nourishing the body as a whole. Too often, we focus on masking issues rather than addressing the root cause. Just like a houseplant with yellowing leaves, tending only to the surface won’t bring it back to health. You have to go deeper, nourishing the roots and the soil to create lasting vitality. Our bodies function the same way—when we support them fully, they thrive.

 

From Passion to Purpose

Everything shifted when I became pregnant with my first child. Suddenly, the choices I made carried an even greater weight. I dove deeper into holistic nutrition, herbal medicine, and the wisdom of generations before us. I studied Holistic Nutrition Therapy, herbalism, and became a doula, all while crafting my own wellness products, baby food, and herbal remedies.

I quickly uncovered the unsettling truth behind many modern wellness products—misleading labels, unnecessary fillers, and synthetic ingredients. I knew there had to be a better way.

 

Why "ELIDE"?

ELIDE is a combination of my daughters’ names, but it also holds a deeper meaning. The word "elide" means "to leave out or omit"—a perfect representation of my mission.

No synthetic fillers or preservatives.
No artificial sweeteners, colors, or thickeners.
No unnecessary additives—just pure, organic, and locally sourced ingredients.

I believe in using only what truly serves the body. Every product is thoughtfully formulated to provide effective, natural healing—because herbs are medicine, and wellness should be both enjoyable and accessible.

 

Wellness Shouldn’t Be Complicated (Or Taste Like Dirt!)

Herbal products don’t have to be bitter, gritty, or something you have to "tolerate" just to be healthy. I believe that wellness should be a joyful experience—delicious, easy, and something you actually look forward to. That’s why every product is carefully crafted to be both effective and enjoyable. Whether it’s a bright, refreshing herbal lemonade or a smooth, nourishing Elderberry Tonic, taking care of yourself should feel like a treat, not a chore.

 

Crafting Wellness with Intention

Now, as a mother of three, my commitment is stronger than ever. Every recipe I create is crafted with care, research, and real-life experience, ensuring that it’s not just safe, but truly beneficial.

I want to make healing simple, delicious, and approachable. You don’t need to wade through complicated regimens or force down something unpleasant to support your body—nature provides powerful remedies that can be both effective and enjoyable.

 

Beyond ELIDE – A Love for Living Well

When I’m not formulating products, you can find me spending time outdoors with my family, foraging, hiking, reading, cooking, and exploring new ways to nourish the body. I believe that food is medicine, herbs are powerful, and the choices we make today shape our health for years to come.

Thank you for being here, for choosing natural wellness, and for trusting me to be part of your journey. I can’t wait to share more with you!
