Embracing Transformation : A Journey to Sustainable Health
Hello, my friends! As I write this, we're graced with a Super Full Moon in Taurus, a time that invites us to reflect on the grounded energy of fall. The temperatures are dropping, leaves are carpeting the ground, and there's a cozy essence of home that's nestled deep within my soul. I've been delighting in preparing hearty meals that warm both body and spirit, and it feels like the perfect moment to share some insights about the transformative journeys of those I work withâindividuals seeking a more sustainable and compassionate approach to their health.

As a single mom, the bar is often set higher for us. We donât have the luxury of leaning on a partner to share the load, especially when it comes to nurturing and sustaining our families. The weight of making sure everyone is cared for falls squarely on our shoulders, and thatâs no small task.
Moms are naturally the nurturers of the family, the glue that holds everything together. But in todayâs world, we donât live in tribes or close-knit communities anymore. We donât have that built-in support system, whether itâs extended family or a small circle of like-minded local friends. Instead, itâs up to us to create that sense of community within our own homes, often from scratch.
When it comes to our kids, the instinct is to want to help all of them at once, especially when their needs are so apparent. But hereâs the thing: when youâre trying to shore up your fami...

The Importance of Gut Health: Rethinking Our Approach
Many people, if not most, are experiencing some degree of gut dysbiosis or "leaky gut." This observation stems from both clinical experience and a growing body of research on the human microbiome, as well as insights from ancestral health practices.
Surprisingly, most individuals who come to me have not adequately addressed their gut health. They may believe theyâve tackled itâoften claiming to have healed their guts by eliminating problem foods or following various protocols to address pathogens. However, thereâs little evidence that they have truly repaired their gut or are consuming enough nutrients for their microbial health, particularly the essential carbohydrates, plants, and fibers.
What Does Gut Repair Mean?
When I refer to "gut repair," Iâm primarily talking about restoring the ...

The Paradigm Shift in Mineral Balancing
In recent times, mineral balancing has begun to gain much-deserved attention, and I couldn't be more thrilled! However, with this surge in interest comes a wave of confusion. Many individuals are eager to embark on their mineral journey, yet they find themselves overwhelmed by the myriad of approaches and perspectives available.
As I engage with more people seeking my philosophy on this topic, I realize th...

In this episode:Â I talk about STRESS and how our bodies adapt in light of it.Â
First off, stressors arenât always BAD, BUT if youâre already carrying a ton of stress or your body has been depleted slowly over time due to stress than a new stress may just easily push you over the edge.Â
Sometimes the stressor could even be abrupt dramatic diet changes or detoxes or eradication protocols or trying to go after heavy metals or single pathogens are good examples of this. A stressful attempt to force their body into healing.Â
The result can be intense and varied - from anxiety, to sleep disturbances, fatigue, missing periods and SO much more! People don't understand how this can push them over the edge.Â
If you remember a stressful. period of your life that permanently reduced some or most of your health - listen up - I'm going to talk about adaptation.Â
Our bodies are so amazing in how ...

In my last episode I shared that Iâd be coming back to expound on components of a hair mineral analysis, in this episode I get into some of the core readings and concepts of this test and work that I do -so you can see how it digs in a deeper way to help guide a path for your current health towards correction
A hair mineral analysis is a HOLISTIC test. It can reflect SO MUCH - such as your heredity, upbringing, lifestyle, diet, drinking water, attitudes, body chemistry, as well as health and dis-ease staes. It reveals an overall picture that is influenced by many factors - this is truly amazing as we simply cannot, nor should not try to separate ourselves up into dissected parts to âtreatâ because we are all a unique WHOLE and beautifully complex human system. This is why I love this test paired with the mind body coaching work I do because it gives some concrete evide...
In this podcast episode I was a guest on my friend Cailee of The Ripened Heart's podcast. We chatted about how I've observed that mineral imbalances do affect our emotions and personality in addition to our physical health.Â
Did you know that having a mineral imbalance can have an impact on your personality and how you see the world?
Mineral balancing is a delicate dance because all minerals have a relationship with each other. Take too much calcium and you get a magnesium deficiency. Consume too much salt and you deplete potassium. It's complicated stuff! And with all of the stress we've been experiencing in the past year our bodies are more depleted of minerals than ever before.

I shared some personal stories and examples so you can realize just how interconnected we are individually. As a whole person, it makes sense that all of who we are; mind, body, emotions, personality or soul is all connected. It's then really no surpris...
Hey girl, are you overwhelmed and exhausted from constantly âpowering throughâ and pushing yourself?
Then listen up⌠Iâm here to give you a little pep talk and some âtough loveâ. And by all means, if there is a better way to say 'tough love' -please let me know, 'cause Iâve shied away from it in the past myself feeling it as criticism and judgement. Thatâs not what I want to relay⌠I want to relay LOVE about something you need to hear, but maybe arenât willing to see it fully or say it to yourself yet.
I speak to and work with women weekly/daily who feel so frustrated and burned out⌠this is an epidemic that women collectively face and a pattern women choose to continue and perpetuate and it has to stop.
I talk a lot about self-care⌠I write about it, I share my own story, I post memes about it.
Today, I want to dig into it a bit further because self-care is more than just doing some nice things for yourself, washing your face every morning, scheduling the coffee date with your girlfrie...
