“Resilient Health Coach | Overcoming Adversity | Christian Mama | Empowering Individuals to Thrive Despite Circumstances”
As a devoted mom and seasoned professional in the health and wellness industry, I bring a wealth of experience and expertise to every conversation. With a Bachelor's degree in Public Health, certifications as a Functional Health Coach, and years of hands-on experience, I am passionate about empowering individuals to achieve optimal well-being.
My journey with health challenges began at a young age when I was hospitalized for major medical concerns. Over the years, I have battled a range of issues, including being a guinea pig for a medical drug at the age of three, three different eating disorders, an abusive relationship with an alcoholic, temporary paralysis, PCOS, Lyme disease, and various bacterial and viral infections. These experiences sparked my curiosity and led me down the path of functional medicine, ultimately helping me heal and discover my purpose in life: to help others feel their best despite their circumstances.
In 2016, I hit rock bottom, facing a moment so dark that I feared I wouldn't survive. Despite my deep passion for holistic medicine, I found myself in a place where I needed the support of western medicine. I began taking two different medications, worked with psychotherapists, and underwent twice a week therapy to help me regain a sense of safety and stability. This experience taught me that sometimes, a combination of approaches was necessary to heal.
I offer a unique perspective on health and wellness, grounded in both personal experience and professional expertise. With a passion for holistic living, I approach conversations with a blend of professionalism, warmth, and a touch of motivation. Whether unraveling complex scientific concepts or sharing personal anecdotes, I aim to create an engaging atmosphere where guests and listeners feel empowered to explore new ideas and perspectives.
Today, I am off all medications, feeling incredibly healthy and happy. I have a beautiful, healthy baby and am back to focusing on alternative and holistic health practices. My approach revolves around alleviating health concerns through a holistic lens, incorporating diet modifications, lifestyle changes, and targeted supplementation. I bring authenticity, passion, and a commitment to empowering others to take charge of their well-being.
