Caitlin’s Bio:

Caitlin Townsend is a certified fertility health coach and professionally trained chef who traded the chaos of restaurant kitchens for a life of freedom, flexibility, and deeply meaningful work. After years of navigating her own fertility journey, Caitlin found her calling in helping other women do the same, combining her nutrition training with lived experience to guide women through the physical, emotional, and hormonal complexities of trying to conceive. She works one-on-one with clients using functional lab testing to identify the root causes standing between them and the pregnancy they want. Now pregnant herself after years on the fertility path, Caitlin brings both professional expertise and genuine personal understanding to every client she works with. When she is not coaching, you will find her on her little farmhouse property, tending her garden and enjoying the slow, intentional life she built on her own terms.
