GET TO KNOW ME

I am a functional medicine nurse health coach, wife, and mama who is passionate about helping others overcome their health struggles in order to thrive! 

I know what it’s like to have an uphill battle with your health. At 10 years old, I was diagnosed with stage IV kidney cancer.  Shortly after completing conventional cancer treatments, I was diagnosed with scoliosis and multiple health issues affecting my heart, blood sugar, and circulation. My immune system also took a hit and a result, I spent most of my childhood sick.

In 2011, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune thyroid disease. My symptoms were extensive, including constipation, sluggishness, brain fog, extreme fatigue, hair loss, irregular body temperature, dry skin and face rashes. I was barely able to function, and my symptoms only continued to get worse. I was left with more questions than answers. 

After five years of multiple doctor visits and no real answers, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I began to extensively research all things health-related and started making gradual changes to my diet. I also switched to non-toxic personal care and cleaning products after learning about their harmful effects on our bodies.

For the first time in years, there was a significant improvement in my symptoms. I was even able to wean off my medication entirely even though my doctors had repeatedly stressed that I would be on it for the rest of my life.

I had more energy. I was happier. I was healthierI was finally thriving after so many years of struggling.

After five years of multiple doctor visits and no real answers, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I began to extensively research all things health-related and started making gradual changes to my diet. I also switched to toxin free personal care and cleaning products after learning about their harmful effects on our bodies.

After making these changes, within weeks, there was a  significant improvement in my symptoms. I was even able to wean off my medication entirely even though my doctors had repeatedly stressed that I would be on it for the rest of my life.

I had more energy. I was happier. I was healthierI was finally thriving after so many years of struggling.

Six months after making these changes, we got pregnant with our first baby after struggling with infertility for four years.
