    KORTNEY LEANY, born near the picturesque Rocky Mountains of Colorado, grew up as a middle child in a loving family. Her journey of self-discovery began early, balancing parental expectations with her desire to forge her own path. Despite a small frame and an awkward growth spurt in high school, Kortney found her passion in weight-lifting in 2012. Competing in four fitness competitions, she marveled at the body's adaptability but also faced the harsh realities of strict diets, leading to health issues like anxiety and extreme fatigue. Driven by her experiences, Kortney delved into gut health, sharing her struggles on social media and connecting with many who faced similar challenges. Her quest for natural healing led her back to the basics: grounding, sunshine and whole foods.

    Jaimie Zaki: Reclaiming the Lost Generational Knowledge of Breastfeeding

    JAIMIE ZAKI is here to help you enter motherhood with confidence. After realizing the medical maternal wellness system was not equipped to truly help mothers and babies thrive, she made it her personal mission to do her part to help bridge the gap of maternal health and wellness support. As a new mother who just experienced a difficult and unwanted cesarean birth, Jaimie dreamed of a peaceful breastfeeding experience to bond with her new baby. Instead, she was met with pain, misery, an angry baby, and heartbreak. The support structures she assumed would be in place to solve these issues were not able to help reach their goals, and even seemed in many ways to undermine her innate desire to nurse her baby. After finding mother-to-mother support that dragged her through the darkest days of her postpartum experience, Jaimie decided that more support was needed in the world, and instead of conforming to and trying to fix a broken structure within the corporate medical model, she would step outside of that model to help mothers where they were -  at home. This is why Jaimie embarked on a journey to become a birth doula and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. After welcoming five babies, she has learned that wellness exists most naturally when we find the right balance between allopathic medicine and holistic wellness - ultimately learning two things: informed consent and trusting our intuition. Her goal is to help mothers find this balance as they seek wellness in pregnancy, postpartum and beyond. Check out her website link below and enter code WellAdjusted50 for 50% her online programs!
