I grew up with an array of health issues - I was born a blue baby which came with infections and immune issues, horrible allergies to pretty much everything, chronic strep throat until my tonsils had to be removed, chronic colds or bronchitis, chronic constipation, irregular cycle and painful pms, and terrible stomach pains every couple months or so that doctors could never understand. Symptom chasing created auto-immune issues and reliance on pharmaceuticals.
At 18 I met a family who approached health from a holistic view and used things like muscle testing, herbs, homeopathy, supplements, and eating whole foods. Through muscle testing we discovered what my body was asking for and I was all in, fully committed to making whatever changes were necessary to feel good. We discovered I had major candida overgrowth that needed to be taken care of before things could heal. I spent the next month in a hardcore lifestyle shift. After just 2 weeks I lost 10lbs and felt better than I even knew was possible. I spent the next couple of years fully dedicated to making whatever shifts my body was asking of me. The process wasn’t always easy, I had to get comfortable with being uncomfortable sometimes. I had to go THROUGH the problems in order to resolve them. My allergies became almost non-existent, I slept better, had better digestion, regular bowel movements, and felt better than I ever remembered feeling. I went from victim mindset to agency.
my story
I overcame so many things I didn’t know I could overcome. I have learned and experienced how food, thoughts, emotions, and actions dictate my health and well-being. I’ve had the privilege to naturally birth two babies at home and raise them with these foundational values. Motherhood has taught me that my children mirror my nervous system and the next paradigm shift became transforming my energy, thoughts, and beliefs. Our own inner transformation has a very real ripple effect.
As a wellness coach, educator, mom, and human I hope to help empower anyone who is ready to gain agency over their health so each person can show up every day as their truest, best self.
To live freely, wholly, and connected.
