Since 2012 I have been on a mission to improve the health of myself and my family. I started an anti-inflammatory diet when my mother challenged me and said “If you want me to EAT like this then you NEED to because you're going to die before me”.She was RIGHT something had to change and it started with ME.We became an organic, non-gmo, 5 simple ingredient, non-dairy, nothing preserved, nothing over processed, or artificial family. I was carrying more than 100 pounds overweight since the birth of my daughter in 2000 with snowballing health issues. I knew I needed to EAT more but was scared to gain anymore weight.My husband and I began a Healthy Living Lifestyle in October of 2018. It fully supported an anti inflammatory diet protocol, we were 100% committed to giving it a go. We were excited to be eating from a food source that exceeds the European food grade, and is cleaner than anything we were previously sourcing in the USA.Day one I felt different and took way less as needed medication. two weeks later we were shouting from the rooftops about what we found and how amazing we felt. I was enjoying eating more than ever while my body is releasing and digesting instead of holding and filling with inflammation.My chronic pain and fatigue are gone. My blood sugar levels and moods are balanced. My brain fog is gone and my mind is clear. I am full of energy, while being no longer addicted to coffee and sugar.My marriage started THRIVING and food tastes AMAZING without dipping it in anything.By staying consistent to this lifestyle for over 4 years: my mind, body, and life are completely Transformed holistically and I am so grateful!!!In 2021 I began studying functional nutrition, doing coursework on the Full Body systems alongside doctors earning their continuing education credits in Functional Nutrition. I truly wanted to understand why and how my body healed, more importantly I wanted to help others to self heal as well.Earning the Certification of Functional Nutrition Counselor allows me to see people where they are in their journey and work with them to clear the muddy waters of their health issues to discover root causes to their symptoms and diagnoses.We do not have to accept their "normal" or that there is nothing we can do to improve things.I am your advocate for self healing, and I bring you and the care team better ideas.This is my passion and it comes with a massive amount of empathy because I truly have been there and I have learned over the last 25 years of my life there is "no one size fits all"
