I’ve been there.
Hormonal and digestive upset. It wasn’t pretty. Doubled over in pain, not being able to keep food in my stomach for more than half an hour. Painful acne made me avoid eye contact. Many frustrating nights were spent tossing and turning. I gained weight, I felt sluggish. Dragging my heavy, weary body around was exhausting. I struggled with these symptoms for years, saw several doctors, was prescribed various medications (namely laxatives and birth control), and found little relief. Nothing really worked long-term.
Then I found my own health advocate and went back to school.
I began working with a health coach who showed me how to ease my symptoms through a healthier, more nutritious diet. She recommended supplements, helped me recognize and remove trigger foods, and supported me in changing my lifestyle and poor eating habits. Through this I realized I wanted to support people in achieving their health goals too. With a degree in psychology, I went on to take courses in biology and chemistry at a local community college and then obtained my Master’s in the Science of Nutrition from the National University of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon.
Through my educational experience and trials with my own health, I formed some basic standards that I wish to share with you, my reader:
- A warm cup of tea can ease emotional and physical discomfort.
- You have the key to your own health, and with support and encouragement you can use it to your advantage.
- Sugar is not our friend, but we can still satisfy a sweet tooth with healthy treats.
- Knowledge is power, and knowing more about your body will help you unlock its secrets.
- You can get better sleep, you can manage sugar cravings, you can have an easier period, you can alleviate your acne, and you can heal your gut.
- To recover, it takes nutritious foods, movement, herbs, and a whole lotta self-care and love.
- And lastly, you are worth the effort. And your body will thank you for it!
I want to give you real solutions.
Now that I am in the driver’s seat of my own health, I am on a mission to help you feel better by putting you in the driver’s seat of your health. One of the obstacles I experienced was navigating my way through the allopathic healthcare system and weeding out well-intended advice that did not work for me and had side effects. It wasn’t until I took matters into my own hands that I began to see real improvements in my health.
I know how frustrating it is to be confused about what is going on with your own body. I’m here to be on your team, to listen to your concerns, to tackle your health issues with you. Are you ready to be the boss of your own health?
