About Me

During my childhood, I was involved in multiple sports and participated in school committees. However, I faced persistent gut issues and excruciating menstrual pain that would hinder my routine activities. Birth control seemed to alleviate only the latter issue, while I continued to experience bloating, pain after eating certain foods, and other symptoms that I considered a part of life.

Fast forward to the Covid era, and my life changed drastically. Working without a playbook was challenging, and homeschooling our three sons added to the stress. During this time, I decided to delve deeper into nutrition and enrolled in a health program, eventually emerging as a Master Certified Health and Wellness Coach and Board Certified with American Association of Drugless Practitioners (AADP) in April 2022. However, I still felt like something was amiss.

Listening to health podcasts, I discovered FDN, which resonated with me. After enrolling in the course and running labs on myself, I realized that stress was the primary factor contributing to all my symptoms and lab results. I followed the protocol given by my mentor, worked on what was in my control, and eventually got off Birth control. I experienced my first painless period and the best gut health of my life, all while juggling work, motherhood, and my other responsibilities. I graduated from the course and became a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner.

My journey has taught me that anyone can take charge of their health, be their own advocate, and achieve optimal health through hard work and determination. It's worth it, and you too can do it!
