What Size Are You?

How My Approach is Different

My approach to healthcare is very different from a typical doctor’s visit. Let’s take size as an example. Let’s say you’re a certain size. Not just physically, but energetically, emotionally, and in the way you live your life. And yet there is a fuller expression of yourself waiting to be expressed. I’m very good at seeing the ways in which you could express more fully and helping you get there.

Your physical health is a part of this. Your physical health is also connected to every other area of your life. So in our visits we will talk about many things besides physical symptoms. Here’s a broad map of the different aspects of well-being that we’ll address:

• Body: In-depth review of your physical symptoms, medical history, and health goals.

• Heart: We’ll look at joy, pleasure, play and relationships—including your relationship to your body and the medical system.

• Spirit: We’ll take an inventory of what helps or hurts your connection to Spirit, and find ways to strengthen that connection through meditation and ritual.

Everyone has a next phase in who they’re becoming, and sometimes we need support to get there. This isn’t about constant growth in a capitalist, colonizer sense. It’s not about getting more and being bigger just for the sake of it. It’s about evolution. In fact, often the next step in who you’re becoming involves rest and slowing down.

In our visits, I hold the vision of fuller self expression and better health for you. Sometimes we need somebody else to hold that vision until we get there ourselves.

It starts in the first visit, and it also builds over time. You’re layered and multifaceted. Your body moves more slowly than your mind. To fully honor the complexity of who you are and your body’s state, it takes time. As I get to know you more, I can guide you more deeply. You deserve that and your body deserves that. But it does require patience, commitment, and faith that a divine unfolding is taking place. Needless to say, spending more time in a healthcare visit is a revolutionary act these days.

If this resonates, I’d love to meet you. Book a call with me and let’s figure out together what your body is trying to tell you, and how your heart and spirit yearn to grow.

In case you’re new here…

I’m Jane Riccobono, WHNP, CNM. I’m a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner and Certified Nurse Midwife with over a decade of experience in women’s health. I work with women who feel a disconnect between the care they’re receiving and the care they need.

I went into healthcare thinking I could change things from inside the system. But after years of watching myself become what I didn’t want to be—rushed, burned out, unable to provide the care I knew women deserved—I had to choose.

I could keep trying to fit myself into a system that treats women’s natural cycles as inconveniences to be suppressed. Or I could step into what I know to be true: that women’s bodies are wise. That our cycles are sacred. That the pain we experience often carries messages we need to hear. That healthcare can be both scientifically sound AND spiritually profound.

This is healthcare for women who know we deserve better. Who are ready to trust our bodies again while having the medical support we need. We’re in this together. I look forward to meeting you.
