ABOUT
Meet Natalie
Hello and welcome to Healing the Nest!
Hi! I’m Natalie Beckman, a certified Nutrition Therapy Master, Childhood Nutrition Specialist, and HeartMath® Practitioner.
I also have over 18 years of experience in higher education and the corporate world developing people through coaching, experiential learning, and large-scale leadership development, change management, and mentorship programs. I also incorporate many of these tools in my practice along with my nutrition education to support a holistic approach to healing and personal development.
I healed myself from a debilitating illness using natural healing foods and medicines after many years of trial and error on pharmaceutical medications, unhelpful treatments, and misguided information.
I am passionate about helping women and children heal and become empowered to lead their own healing journeys as I once did.
I believe that mothers are the driving force for real change when it comes to the future of our healthcare and they instill this empowerment in their children when provided the right knowledge and tools. It is my goal to empower, educate, and support you so that you can reclaim your life, your children’s life and truly thrive knowing YOU are in charge of making sound health decisions for your family.
If you feel like you have exhausted all efforts with little to no results from traditional and alternative health or feel stuck in the Medical Medium protocols and want some additional support and guidance, I am here to help.
I was once in your shoes.
In 2015, I started experiencing inexplicable brain fog and debilitating fatigue following a hip surgery. I went searching for answers. With little support from the traditional medical system, I was relieved to find some answers from functional medicine. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism, adrenal fatigue, and mold toxicity. I went to work on alternative protocols, tried different healing diets, and got on medication only to get progressively worse over the next two years.
By 2017, my body experienced a cytokine storm. On top of the fatigue, I developed mast cell activation, seizures and tremors almost daily, insomnia, and reoccurring body collapses to where I could not use my legs for short periods of time. Scared I was losing my life, I went from doctor to doctor hoping to find answers only to be met with bewilderment and labeled as a complicated case. I spent a month in the hospital and finally received a new diagnosis of Lyme’s disease. Again, I went to work and saw a slight improvement.
However, a year later after a well-intentioned alternative treatment, I experienced a stroke-like episode, which left the right side of my face and body numb and unable to talk for days. I dropped to my knees and prayed for an answer. I enrolled in a Nutrition Therapy Master’s program through the Nutrition Therapy Institute and then, Anthony William’s first Medical Medium book fell into my lap. As I was reading, every cell in my body believed that this was the true path to healing. Although incredibly sensitive at the time, I started implementing the Medical Medium protocols and slowly started to heal.
Over time, I was able to improve and reverse most of my symptoms including what was thought to be early menopause. I was also able to get off of medication I was told I’d be on for life. I conceived and brought my healthy son into the world naturally in 2022 medication free after believing I could never have children.
I am here to tell you that healing is possible no matter where you are on your journey, even if you feel you have tried everything. Sometimes we just need the right support to get there.
Healing the Nest was created out of a vision for helping families truly heal, cutting through all the trendy health BS out there and sharing true evidence-based health information, and building a community of like-minded women with the same driving purpose.
My philosophy is to lead with compassion, keep it simple, go slow to go fast, and tap into the wisdom of your body.
I use my nutrition therapy, HeartMath®, and my leadership background coupled with my own experience working through the Medical Medium protocols and other healing methods to help guide you on your healing journey. Whatever your goals, we will work together in a fashion where you feel supported, educated, and empowered to build a healthy foundation for your nest.
