I fell in love with matcha.

Matcha and I found each other over a decade ago. A friend gave me a sample of the mystical green powder—and I was intrigued.

Through serendipity and a series of synchronistic events, I found myself, once again, with matcha, the magical green drink, in my hands during a trip to Japan.

As fate would have it, I started seeing matcha everywhere as I walked the Japanese streets with my family—in cafés, restaurants, food stands, grocery stores.

But first, life had some challenges.

Life was teaching me (the hard way) how to slow down. Since college, I’d been a super achiever—building my career, shooting to the top of companies and helping them bring in millions of dollars.

But I didn’t feel fulfilled. Something was missing.

When I sat in stillness, I felt lots of resistance. For years, I couldn’t put my finger on it.

My husband and I experienced so many ups and downs as we tried everything, from acupuncture to specialists, to grow our family. Our final attempt was to invest in a very invasive procedure (IVF), which comes with even more physical and emotional challenges.

And it didn’t work. I felt a sense of loss that felt almost unbearable.

To make things worse, my doctor told me this was my fault—because I was too stressed out. I spiraled into a depression and so did my husband. We found comfort in indulging our senses, with Netflix, rich foods, and diet soda.

And then, I started listening to my intuition...

One day, I was doing some research on depression and infertility. An ad popped up for a doctor, only 5 minutes away. My gut told me to see this doctor. I felt a hopeful feeling rush over me as I made the appointment. I just knew this was the right next step.

When we met with the doctor, I asked him my question: Was all this my fault?

He looked at me, with a caring eye, and said, “Christie, women in war zones have babies all the time. It’s not your fault.” A big weight had been lifted off my shoulders.
