What started as a simple garden cleanup turned into a profound revelation about why so many people struggle with mineral supplementation - even when they're doing everything "right."

In this deeply personal episode, I share the story of my severe poison ivy reaction and the unexpected parallels it revealed about mold exposure, environmental toxins, and why your body might be operating in permanent survival mode.

The Hidden Connection Most People Miss

Just like poison ivy lurks invisibly in winter gardens, mold exposure and environmental toxins often affect us without our awareness. When your body finally recognizes the threat, it launches a ma...

Why I Skip Collagen Powders & Make This Instead

 

Spring Collagen & Potassium Power Broth 🍲

Everyone's obsessed with collagen supplements, but here's the truth: your body doesn't just need collagen - it needs the FULL spectrum of amino acids AND cofactors to actually BUILD healthy tissue.

When the temps dropped to the 40s overnight here on the East Coast, my body was calling for something warming and deeply nourishing. What started as a simple kitchen experiment turned into a powerful reminder of why real food beats supplements every time.

The Spring Broth That Started It All

Sometimes the most healing foods are born from pure intuition. Yesterday, I found myself drawn to make what I'm calling my Spring Collagen & Potassium Power Broth - a combination that's perfect for these chilly spring days and exactly what my body was craving.

What I simmered up:
- Chicken feet (collagen powerhouse!)
- Celery (~260mg potassium per cup)
- Dandelion stems (wild nutrition, ~218mg K per cup)
- Scallion bulbs (flavor + minerals, ~276mg K per cup)...

Why Sulfur Foods Might Be Making You Feel Worse (Even If They’re “Healthy”)

Are Sulfur-Rich Foods Making You Feel Worse?

You’ve probably been told sulfur-rich foods are good for you.
Think: garlic, onions, cruciferous veggies, eggs.

And they are — until they’re not.

In this week’s episode of Rewilded Wellness, I explore what most practitioners overlook: why your body might not be able to process sulfur effectively, and how that creates confusing symptoms like:

  • Bloating after meals

  • Brain fog or mood shifts

  • Fatigue that doesn’t make sense

  • Sensitivities to healthy foods or supplements

This isn’t about demonizing sulfur — it’s about respecting your body’s current terrain. Minerals, microbes, genetic tendencies, detox capacity, and even emotional trauma all shape how your body responds.


Sulfur Sensitivity Is a Sign — Not a Life Sentence

The wellness world tends to treat symptoms like enemies.
But your body’s reaction to sulfur isn’t a failure — it’s communication.
It’s feedback about what’s missing, what’s overwhelmed, and what’s ready ...

The Hidden Connection: How Your Digestive Issues May Be Triggering Your Anxiety

The Hidden Connection: How Your Digestive Issues May Be Triggering Your Anxiety

Have you ever noticed that your anxiety seems to flare up alongside your digestive symptoms? This isn't a coincidence. What if I told you that the butterflies in your stomach, the knot in your throat, and the racing thoughts in your mind might all share a common origin?

The Gut-Brain Axis: Your Second Brain at Work

Scientists have discovered what many ancient healing traditions have known for centuries: your gut and brain are engaged in constant, intimate conversation. This communication highway, known as the gut-brain axis, is reshaping how we understand both digestive issues and mental health concerns.

Your digestive system houses what scientists call your "second brain" – an intricate network of over 500 million neurons called the enteric nervous system. This neural network produces many of the same neurotransmitters found in your brain, including a staggering 90% of your body's serotonin – the "happ...

Let’s Build Stronger Guts: The Sexy Truth About Fiber & Microbiome Health

Listen on iTunes HERE

In this episode I take a dive into a topic that doesn’t always get the attention it deserves but thankfully it’s starting to -  is absolutely crucial to your health—fiber. Yes, fiber.

You may have heard it’s essential, but do you really know why? Let’s dig in and talk about the amazing, transformative power of fiber and its relationship with your gut and overall well-being.

But first  . . . I feel like in the holistic health space, it seems like everyone's been searching for solutions to their problems, and for over a decade, the main advice has been: "Just eliminate it."

But short-term relief doesn't equal true healing or recovery. Categorical eliminations galore—cutting out dairy because it’s "bad," going gluten-free because wheat is "bad," actually wait we should avoid all grains, oh and also let’s avoid legumes too  or avoiding a myriad of other plant...

The Microbiome Revolution: Why It’s Time to Rethink Gut Health


Episode #207: The Microbiome Revolution: Why It’s Time to Rethink Gut Health

Listen on iTunes HERE

In recent years, we’ve learned so much about the microbiome and its impact on overall health. Our understanding of gut health has evolved dramatically, and with it, our approach to healing the gut. But what does it really mean to heal your gut? The answer lies in one simple truth: healing your gut means rebuilding your microbiome.

Microbes Matter More Than You Think

Our relationship with food and gut health has never been static. The way we eat and how food is produced has always evolved, driven by environmental changes, resources, and our ever-expanding understanding of what true health looks like. Yet, as humans, we cling to familiar patterns—especially when it comes to our health. We tend to defend our habits and resist change, even when they no longer serve us.

In the realm of gut health, this resistance often shows up in the form of rigid dietary protocols, q...

Histamine Intolerance and the gut

Navigating Gut Health and Histamine Intolerance

Recently, I shared on Instagram that I submitted my hair sample for my HTMA retest. After ten years of testing—this being my 38th—I’ve come to view these assessments as seasonal checkpoints in my journey to health.

Reflecting on my early experiences, I remember grappling with a highly volatile system. I was hypersensitive to everything, making it challenging to identify what my body could tolerate. My health felt like a constant cycle of crashing and burning, followed by brief recoveries, all while managing immense stress from multiple factors, including living in a water-damaged home. One of my most significant challenges was severe leaky gut, compounded by a relentless histamine response. For two long years, eating became a daunting task, as I never knew which foods would trigger a reaction.

During that time, I often found myself in a heighten...

Let's Talk About Leaky Gut

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 they’ve tackled it—often claiming to have healed their guts by eliminating problem foods or following various protocols to address pathogens. However, there’s 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," I’m primarily talking about restoring the ...

PODCAST: It's all about assimilation

Donations are so appreciated (PayPal Me )

In this episode talk about how you are what you digest and absorb nutrient wise - aka ASSIMILATION because that term is coming up for me holistically speaking on the heels of the sound healing retreat I’ve felt there was a lot to digest, absorb and assimilate. So let’s dig into it because it’s important and comes up in every client I work with -in fact today I just reviewed a BiomeFX with one of my favorite doctors and we talked about digestive inefficiency and how it’s a top priority in any case regardless of the differences in results.

Listen to Episode # 135 : It's all about assimilation : Find - A Joy To Be Me : On - iTunes, iHeartRadio, Stitcher or Spotify 

There are several symptoms that lead us to suspect that poor absorption or maldigestion is taking place before the first test is ever even done. These may include bloating, burping, upset stomach, diarrhea, gas, a desire to eat when not hungry, indigestion, undiges...
