This isn’t just a story about healing.
It’s about taking your power back.
For over 20 years, I lived in a body that felt like a ticking time bomb.
I was exhausted. Inflamed.
Wired but tired.
A brain-foggy, irritable mess.
My gut was wrecked. Allergies and chronic coughing ran the show.
And I wish I had back the tens of thousands of dollars–and countless hours I spent trying to hide the chaos on my skin.
"Your labs look fine. How about you try an anxiety medication?”
“You drew the genetic short straw. You’ll need these medications for life.”
“Here’s another prescription.”
They didn’t ask WHY I was having these symptoms.
According to them (and where their medical training fell short)...
Symptoms are just something to medicate, not investigate.
They didn’t dig deeper.
My medication list just grew...
while I was BEGGING for answers.
The longer I played that game, the worse things got.
And with every new dismissal, the shame grew heavier.
I lay awake at night wondering if I’d be alive to see my kids graduate high school. The agony of that possibility was too much to bear.
I was snappy, short-tempered, and constantly in survival mode.
Even the good stuff—like vacations & weekend plans—were hijacked by symptom flares & anxiety.
❌ Went to every doctor. No one was asking WHY.
❌ Just more meds. More confusion. More dead-ends.
❌ 'Normal' test results.
❌ Even numerous (unnecessary) surgeries.
🧩 Even the natural route left me spinning my wheels.
🧩 More symptom-chasing
🧩 A supplement graveyard full of false hope.
🧩 No one was looking at the big picture.
I realized I needed to take my health into my own hands. My intuition told me that none of this was ‘normal’.
And I made a decision: I was done being a victim.
I stopped waiting for someone else to save me...and started searching for solutions instead.
I got certified as a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner & trained with mentors who actually understood the body as a whole, rather than the sum of its parts.
I learned how to identify root causes—physically, emotionally, and energetically—and created a roadmap for deep healing.
I rebuilt my gut.
Cleared hidden infections.
Cleaned up my environment.
Rewired my nervous system & beliefs.
Released buried anger and trauma from childhood.
Let go of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and energy leaks that were keeping me sick.
And I finally started feeling safe, vibrant, and alive again. In essence…I felt FREE for the first time ever.
Now I have freedom from the symptoms that once controlled my life.
I wake up excited about each day instead of dreading it.
I feel strong, magnetic, sexy—and more radiant than I ever did in my teens or twenties.
I know what it’s like to feel dismissed, broken, and scared—
and I know the magical life that’s possible on the other side of that brokenness.
I’m not here just to manage symptoms.
🩷 I’m here to help you break free
from the patterns and root causes that have kept you stuck —physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
🙅🏻♀️ You don’t need another medication.
❌ You don’t need more guesswork or gaslighting.
🌟 You need someone who’s walked through the fire and can show you the way out.
I’m ready when you are.
