I’m Elise Abbruzzese, founder of Hera Be Well. I am, first and foremost, a mom. I am also a chef, integrative health coach, and postpartum doula. I work with women who want to attain healthy balance in every aspect of their lives. My clients know intuitively that this is the optimal way to enter motherhood, but they need guidance and support in this endeavor. I founded Hera Be Well to help women through their fertility journey. Postpartum support is a family business. My great-grandmother was a beloved baby nurse in Northern New Jersey during the 1970s and 80s. Hera is the Greek goddess of women, marriage, family and childbirth. She is also the daughter of Rhea, which is my mother’s name. Hera is a tribute to mom, my foremothers, and my children who motivate me to Be Well and make a difference.
