Background

I’m an intuitive and passionate home cook who learned by doing, helping my mom cook elaborate and delicious family meals from the time I was old enough to hold a spoon! Those early experiences taught me that food, nourishment and cooking are some of the purest and most potent expressions of love available to us as humans. I have spent my whole life pursuing education through trusted mentors, near-constant self-study, and self-mastery of cooking nourishing foods and offering culinary support to my friends, my family and beyond.

I am deeply passionate about ancestral women’s health, perinatal health, pregnancy and postpartum, and have built my offerings around the principles of Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, ‘The First Forty Days’ by Heng Ou, ‘Nourishing Traditions’ by Weston A. Price, and Innate Traditions ‘Physiologic Baby Care’ course, which I completed in early 2024.

Postpartum should be a sacred time of replenishment, support, and nurturance, not only for new baby but for mom and partner, and I can’t wait to help you lean into that sacred cocoon of time.

“You feel the love Rowan pours into her work. To have been supported and nourished by her during my postpartum time felt like a warm hug. It really does take a village, and Rowan shows up for you to make you feel held during a very tender period of life.”
