About me (Hi!)
My Health Journey
Several years ago, toxic mold wrecked havoc on my body. I was fatigued, brain fogged, asthmatic, throwing up constantly, losing hair, swelling, light headed, and weak.
I then went through the doctor shuffle…you know the one. You don’t have this or that but here’s some steroids. I don’t know what you have but I can give you birth control. Which seemed like a poor solution & no explanation for what was going on.
I was told this happens to some people. But things don’t just happen. There is always a cause. Especially for your health.
After starting a more holistic process I found out I had been living in toxic mold…
I had histamine intolerance, over 50 food allergies, leaky gut syndrome, mineral imbalances, hormone imbalances, chronic fatigue syndrome, an immune system stuck on high alert, and to quote my doctor, I had adrenals that were “in the toilet”. At 22! It shouldn’t be like that at any age, but especially not at 22.
Now, I help others get to the bottom of their root causes, take a physiology first approach to health, and focus on functional, systemic areas of balance within the body through a “test don’t guess” model.
Get to know me
I think wholehearted, imperfect action will take you farther than striving for perfection every time
I love dancing (don’t assume I’m good at it)
I think no one should have to drink bad coffee
I love connecting with people
I think music is best heard loud or live
I love matcha (iced only, I’m convinced it is an entirely different drink if it is hot)
I love turning small things into an adventure
I believe all dogs are cute (at least to their owner)
I love anything in nature (beach, mountains, desert, you name it - I enjoy it)
I LOVE educating people on health (and talk the ears off of my friends and family when given the chance)
I believe our bodies were designed intricately and intelligently with the ability to adapt and heal when properly supported.
personal health wins:
I lost 28 pounds while focusing on supporting my body - without focusing on weight loss
Hair regrowth after mineral imbalances, chronic gut issues & toxic mold caused hair loss
Mental clarity increased (woo!)
Got rid of candida without crazy carb and sugar restrictions
Energy! In the thick of my toxic mold journey, I used to have 4 hours a day that I was functional, now it is much much more (and I am so grateful)
