Natasha Richardson

Natasha Richardson is a medicinal herbalist, menstrual health expert and founder of Forage Botanicals: a community which supports women with their hormones, from periods to menopause – plus, issues like fatigue, headaches and more.

Having suffered for years with her own crippling period pain, she felt ignored by the medical profession, which led her to re-train in herbal medicine – and run a clinic for a decade, helping women with their hormone health; before publishing a book called Your Period Handbook. She is also a trained doula and antenatal teacher.

She now runs a team of experienced herbalists at Forage Botanicals, offering treatment plans, as well as a six-month group coaching programme – book a £45 discovery call to find out more. You can also try her five week online course, Period Empowerment, to learn how to advocate for yourself, tune into your cycle and nourish your hormones (£199).

Forage Botanicals also has a range of own brand hormone-soothing products: including teas, drinking chocolate and skincare.
