Aster Amelia is the author of Cape Con, the story of a perfect seaside town, a dying father, and a darkness hiding in plain sight. She is also the author of The Space in the Middle, a method for families navigating estrangement.
She is a board-certified nutritional consultant, holistic health practitioner, and detoxification specialist with over 25 years of clinical experience, and founder of an eco-friendly holistic skincare brand with products sold globally. Her work is defined by a deep observation of how biochemistry, inherited dynamics, and environmental stressors converge to dictate health outcomes. Having supported tens of thousands of individuals, she developed the Root Cause Approach — identifying the root triggers of systemic decline — including landmark work connecting mold exposure to uveitis. Her writing brings that same deep observation to family and to the systems we all eventually face.
