The Woman Behind The Work
I am Manuela,
the heart and womb behind The Holistic Venus.
A scientist turned devotee, a teacher turned guide — walking the path between
mitochondria and mythology.
From the language of research to the language of ritual, my work is a remembrance: that science and soul were never meant to live apart.
My devotion is to help women understand, trust, and love their bodies again
—
through clarity, nourishment, and beauty.
From Research to Reverence
From a young age, I was captivated by the quiet intelligence of the body.
A small book about hormones changed everything — it opened a lifelong curiosity about how biology shapes the way we live, feel, and create.
That curiosity led me to study Clinical Nutrition and Endocrinology, and later to work in Endocrinology, Metabolism and Lipid research in the United States.
I loved the precision of data, the brain power of leading experiments, the logic of cellular communication. But something essential was missing: the human pulse, the real poetry beneath the science.
When my own health began to unravel, I turned inward. I listened. Observed. Returned to my cyclical nature.
Healing became remembrance.
And from that *remembering*, The Holistic Venus was born
— a bridge between research and ritual
logic and love,
This work is not about fixing the body.
It is about remembering that she was never broken.
Feeling alive in our body, to me, is an act of partnership — not domination.
The body is not an obstacle to overcome,
but an intelligent ally to understand.
Through The Venus Way, I teach women to rebuild trust in their biology through:
Education —
knowledge as empowerment
Responsibility —
choosing to be active participants in our wellbeing
Devotion —
transforming daily care into sacred practice
Magic —
acknowledging the unseen intelligence that moves through Life
Beauty —
remembering that health is sensual, creative, and alive
Desire —
the gateway to creation and aliveness
Because your body is sacred science — a living temple of power and softness.
My approach is a union of modern endocrinology, cyclical biology, somatic education, and feminine energy work
— all held in the frequency of beauty and reverence.
MY APPROACH
Where Science Becomes Sensual
My work blends:
Female Biology — grounding everything in cellular truth
Ancestral Nourishment — drawing on Italian heritage, ritual, and simplicity
Feminine Energy & Embodiment — integrating intuition, movement, and emotion
Educational Empowerment — teaching women how to become fluent in their own biology
This is education that feels like devotion
— clear, structured, but deeply human.
The goal is not to “hack” the body, but to hear her.
Not to control, but to collaborate.
From the classroom to the kitchen table, from mitochondria to mythology —
this is where science learns to breathe.
Core Beliefs
The body is never the enemy.
She has been waiting for you to listen.
Education is devotion.
Understanding your biology is an act of reverence.
Healing happens through partnership.
Structure and softness, logic and love — both are sacred.
Beauty is nourishment.
What pleases the senses sustains the body and nervous system.
Desire is holy.
The body’s longing is a map toward aliveness.
The Ancestry of Venus
The name The Holistic Venus carries the bloodline of origin and myth.
My family beach home stands on the coast of Italy — on the very beach where, legend says, Aeneas, the son of Venus, first landed.
Venus is also considered the Mother of Rome, the city I grew up in and where I now live. Fun fact: Rome is born from two myrtle plants, plant sacred to Venus as when she’s born she covers herself with myrtle and it’s become the feminine and fertility plant par excellence!
Surrounded by art, roses, and saltwater, I grew up in a place where beauty and life were intertwined.
That energy flows through everything I create.
Venus is not just a goddess — she is the reminder that beauty softens, that love teaches, and that devotion is the most intelligent form of science.
An Invitation
If you have ever felt disconnected from your body
— confused by your cycle, overwhelmed by health advice, or afraid of your own rhythms
— you are not alone.
This space is for the woman who desires both knowledge and softness, clarity and depth, research and ritual.
For the woman who knows her body is sacred and wants to live as if that were true.
Welcome to The Holistic Venus — a sanctuary of remembrance.
Where you learn not just how your body works,
but how she speaks.
