Why I Do This Work

I do this work because I believe healing is possible. Because I know how powerful it is to finally feel validated, supported, and understood—especially when you’ve been told you’re “fine” but feel anything but.


I’ve lived through burnout, hormone chaos, digestive issues, and deep emotional exhaustion—and I came out the other side feeling more me than I ever had before.


And now? I help other women do the same.
Because you don’t have to keep pushing through. You can feel good again.

My Philosophy

If you're feeling tired, foggy, bloated, moody, or just off—those symptoms aren’t random. They’re signals. And they’re your body’s way of asking for help.


As a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P), I use lab testing and a root-cause lens to uncover what’s really driving your symptoms—so we can stop guessing and start healing.


I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all protocols or slapping a supplement on a symptom. I believe in working with your body, not against it—using functional labs as our compass, and personalized lifestyle shifts as the path forward.


FDN gave me the tools to understand my own body and reclaim my health. Now, I help other women do the same—looking at the full picture: hormones, gut, detox, nervous system, and beyond.


I lead with science, but I never lose sight of compassion.
Healing is personal. You deserve to feel heard, understood, and deeply supported every step of the way.


This isn’t about chasing perfection.
It’s about feeling grounded, energized, and finally at home in your body again.

✨ My Story: From Burnout to Balance

Hey, I see you.

You wake up wondering:
“Is today the day I finally feel like myself again?”
Or is it another day of faking fine?


That was me too.

From the outside, I looked like I had it all together—strong, capable, healthy. But inside? I was unraveling. I was exhausted, inflamed, anxious, disconnected. I kept pushing… until I couldn’t.

My breaking point came in 2018

After hiking the Appalachian Trail—something that should’ve made me feel alive—I felt completely depleted. I was living in a van, juggling a crumbling marriage, working nonstop, and hiding my pain behind a smile.

I was people-pleasing, caretaking, over-functioning. And I was so tired.

Doctors told me I was “fine.”

My labs were “normal.”
I was told to “join the club.”
But I knew something was wrong.

Then I found Functional Diagnostic Nutrition®.
And everything changed.

The Shift

FDN gave me proof that I wasn’t crazy.
My body wasn’t broken—it was burned out.

Hormonal chaos. Gut dysfunction. Nutrient depletion. Years of ignored signals... and pushing myself way too hard.

When I saw my first lab results, I cried.
I finally had answers. I finally felt validated.

Healing didn’t happen overnight.
But little by little—I came back to life.

  • My skin cleared
  • My energy returned
  • The fog lifted
  • I smiled again—for real this time
     

And now?
I walk alongside other women who are still stuck in that place—strong on the outside, unraveling on the inside.

This Isn’t About Perfection

This is about coming home to your body.
About waking up with clarity, calm, and confidence.
About knowing what your body needs—and how to give it exactly that.

You don’t have to fake it anymore.
You don’t have to settle for “fine.”

Ready to stop spinning your wheels and finally feel like yourself again?

I’m here to walk beside you—as someone who’s been where you are and made it to the other side.
