My Story
At 37 years old, I was frustrated and mysteriously sick. I recorded my symptoms, sat in medical offices, explained, and cried. My doctors couldn’t fix me. A dietitian didn’t understand me. And my family and friends were overwhelmed by me.
With no answers, I went against everything I’d known about medicine and met with a holistic practitioner. Functional testing showed I wasn't absorbing nutrients, and an elimination diet pointed to gluten, which was damaging my gut and affecting my immune system.
Changing my diet changed the course of my entire life. I was energetic, clear headed, and happy for the first time. I became fascinated by my recovery and discovery, longing to understand “why” and “how” I went from so broken to feeling like a whole person.
My Story
Food was a huge part of the puzzle for my health, but as I dove into work with my clients, I learned it's never "just one thing. "
I became curious about stress and it's role in digestive health, and my focus turned to the brain, gut, and immune connection - where I now lay the foundations for my clients. The results are exponential.
My nutritional therapy practice has taken me full circle. Having a history of childhood trauma and high stress, I'm an empathetic ear to anyone who's been suffering silently.
Sometimes the root cause is hidden, and food isn't enough. I'm here to teach you how to listen to your body, build solid foundations to rely on, and transform your health from the inside out.
