I’m chatting with Juni Bucher, Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Meditation Teacher, specializing in hormone balance, and breast cancer survivorship. As a survivor of breast cancer and Hashimoto's disease, Juni is living proof that a holistic approach to health can heal. She has a virtual nutritional therapy practice in Portland Oregon where she specializes in breast cancer survivorship and hormone balance. She is also a member of the Rose City Sexual Health Collective where she works with other sex positive practitioners to enable people to feel sexy in their skin.

Juni and I share a passion for empowering women!! “So many people live the majority of their life uncomfortable in their bodies. I truly believe that when we support ourselves with whole food nutrition, mindfulness and a lot of self-love that we can achieve incredible joy. It is my mission to help women and men feel lovingly connected to their bodies and have the energy to pursue their dreams.”

How Juni and I connected.  In the Holistic Business Starter Coaching Community with Shawn Mynar - https://www.shawnmynar.com/ 

Juni shares her story.  She was a singer and performing artist and became passionate about health and wellness when she was diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease.  She was able to put her Hashimoto’s in remission with attention to nutrition.

At 41 Juni was diagnosed with breast cancer and turned again to healthy food and nutrition to help her through the healing journey.

I had a good job, “but I could feel in my being I needed to leave that job…I wanted to live a life by my own design.” – Juni

Community of needs; issues in healing that occur during breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, and beyond- for example how to navigate your mastectomy with a romantic partner; issues around Body image, stress management, body changes, and sexual health.
