better known as Lucy Libido.

Hi there!

I’m Julie. 

I felt hopeless.

I’m your go-to hormone health bestie, author, speaker and the founder of The Happy Hormone Lab. 

After a life threatening hospital stay in my forties, I experienced how common it is for women to have their symptoms dismissed. By calmly and clearly advocating for deeper tests to explain chest and lung pain an MRI uncovered a pulmonary embolism that was cutting off oxygen to my lungs. Refusing to ignore my pain saved me.

While hospitalized for care - I deeply considered how often women are told “everything’s normal” or “your labs look fine” while we are in pain. I decided to go back to school for functional hormone health, and become the provider that is so desperately missing.

Ironically, the very program that I was learning for others was exactly what I needed for myself.

By applying the exact same principles I teach in my programs, I regained physical strength, mental acuity, my emotions became less erratic, my migraines lessened and my libido returned. I was back to the Lucy Libido that I loved.

Now I help women do the same. Through functional labs, personalized protocols, and hormone therapy education, I give you the tools and answers that most doctors were never taught. Whether you're experiencing perimenopause rage, thyroid issues, brain fog, sleep disturbances, menopause struggles or frustrated that your once-hot libido has up and left you like a cruel one-night stand, I’ve got you.

I thought I was losing my mind.…

but in fact I was going through perimenopause.

I thought functional school would be a breeze. I have a best selling book under my belt, multiple degrees and a teaching repertoire as long as a CVS receipt. To my surprise, I struggled to stay on task and I felt constantly overwhelmed, unorganized and weepy. I was terrified that somehow I was no longer capable of greatness and that my best years were behind me. I felt hopeless.
