You are worth it.
Everyone deserves a life of health and happiness. A life full of joy, hope, energy, vibrancy, and laughter.
When we are sick, it typically robs us of the energy, joy, and fulfillment we desire most. Many of my clients tell me that they no longer go out with friends or enjoy parties or family events because when they do go out they are so worried about how sick they may be, it’s not worth going. They sacrifice the joy, love, and companionship that us as humans were made for.
I have clients who have stopped dating, who stay home and isolated, who are depressed and anxious, who avoid being in public because their skin has broken out so bad they are too embarrassed to go out.
Life is too short to live a sub-par life. We were meant to experience love, and hope, and be able to soak up all that life has to offer.
No more standing on the sidelines while everyone else has all the fun. A new way of life and health is just around the corner.
Your health is wealth and it’s time to invest in what true health has to offer.
You are worth it.
You deserve a rich fulfilling life, full of energy and health.
My story isn’t so different
Growing up I consumed the Standard American Diet. I lived off of chips, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, hamburger helper, and bread. LOTS of bread. I was an athlete and always stayed active so I figured I could eat whatever it is I wanted. I paid no attention to the potential future repercussions. I mean, what kid does?
That was until I became bed ridden once a month from period pain I cannot begin to describe. I took handfuls of Ibuprofen and Advil, covered up my symptoms the best I could, and kept on keeping on. As we all do, right?
I developed acne, gas, bloating, irregular cycles, severe mood swings, depression, and I lived my life exhausted. It became my new normal because eventually I forgot what it felt like to not experience all of these ailments.
I was diagnosed with Endometriosis and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) at the age of 28 years old. When speaking with my doctor, she gave me two options. More birth control or a full hysterectomy. It was at that moment I fired my doctor and decided that I would take my health into my own hands and figure this out on my own. My gut instinct was that there was a more holistic way, I just had to find it.
Many of my clients come to me after firing their doctors. Either that or they become frustrated in the answers they are getting- which I can totally relate to. YOU are your best doctor and know your body better than anyone else.
Through a series of events I was connected with the Institute of Integrative Nutrition and from there I fell in love with gut health and the connection between our “second brain” and our overall wellness. Through my own experiences, research, and connecting and learning from the best all over the globe, I get to help my clients achieve wellness and health they never imagined possible again- restoring their hope, restoring their gut, and restoring their health.
By healing my gut and changing my lifestyle, I was able to enjoy life again. I didn’t have to miss out on things once a month, or workout through pain that seemed impossible to bear at times, and I was able to attend parties and events without feeling the guilt of enjoying a piece of cake or having some homemade ice cream. The same goes for my clients. We get to experience life again and not have to live it sitting on the sidelines
I became empowered to spread the message of health and healing after I experienced it myself. I knew when I found this way of living, that teaching and coaching others would be my purpose.
