As a single mom, the bar is often set higher for us. We don’t 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 that’s no small task.

Moms are naturally the nurturers of the family, the glue that holds everything together. But in today’s world, we don’t live in tribes or close-knit communities anymore. We don’t have that built-in support system, whether it’s extended family or a small circle of like-minded local friends. Instead, it’s 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 here’s...

The Importance of Minerals in Hydration

In today's world, finding pure mineral-rich water is a challenge. However, it's crucial to pay attention to our mineral intake, especially when it comes to hydration. Interestingly, there is a connection between thirst and electrolyte deficiencies. Many individuals wonder why they feel dehydrated and thirsty despite drinking ample water. The truth is, thirst can indicate a lack of electrolytes in...

In this episode, I'm talking about the health of your kidneys. Most of us take our kidneys for granted every single day. We don't really think about them until one day something goes wrong, like kidney stones for example. It's important to know in advance that the kidneys need minerals, not medication.

The kidneys maintain mineral and healthy fluid balance.

But you've got to give them the raw ingredients to work with so they don't struggle to do their job.

Kidneys need hydration to be ON POINT.
True hydration is water plus minerals
Dehydration concentrates calcium and other minerals in the urine.
Water follows salt. Salt has to be ON POINT.
Real salt consumed for your daily functioning needs.
Magnesium has to be ON POINT.
The kidney has a vital role in magnesium homeostasis, deficiency (which is common)causes them to struggle

In this episode, I talk you through the difference between hair analysis and blood analysis. 

Hair analysis (HTMA) and blood analysis are unique and measure different areas of the body. Since HTMA is less familiar, I thought I'd expound on how it offers a window into the cells to help balance body chem­istry. 

Listen to Episode #78 Hair Analysis vs Blood Analysis : Find A Joy To Be Me on iTunes, iHeartRadio, Stitcher or Spotify 

Modern medicine is unfamiliar with hair analysis because it's more of a corrective path to health versus diagnostic. We have to remember the allopathic model is very directly tied to a corrupt system with a focus on prescribing medication and surgery primarily. They are not trained in preventative medicine. 

Nutritional Therapy centers on the belief that real health can be achieved through a holistic and bio-individual approach to nutrition and lifestyle.This functional approach to health focuses on restoring balance to the...

In this episode, I chat about the many moving parts behind high blood pressure and how medication will never correct the underlying imbalance. The problem with a medication only approach is because the imbalances affect more than just one function. 

Listen to Episode #65: Mineral Balancing for Blood Pressure: Find A Joy To Be Me on iTunes, iHeartRadio, Stitcher or Spotify 

Minerals are KEY in regulating blood pressure. Today we have so many mineral deficiencies or excesses that impact our physiology and they need to be looked at together. This is how we avoid ISOLATIONISTIC thinking that leads to adding bandaids on top of bandaids and never ever correcting function. 

I share trends/patterns and imbalances I see in my practice working with HTMA that correlate with blood pressure. Unfortunately, high blood pressure is not assessed thoroughly in the allopathic world. 

I like to solve the biochemistry problem versus thinking we are 'solving' the problem with a...
