YOUR HORMONE HEALTH BEGINS IN YOUR GUT

When your gut microbiome is compromised, it creates a cascade effect through your body. Then your hormones become imbalanced. Then inflammation increases. Then you get sick. If you want to feel better, the first step is to heal your gut.

I've worked with countless individuals who've shared heartbreaking stories:

• Afraid to eat out because everything wrecks their stomach

• Underperforming at work because brain fog is taking them down at 2 pm

• Canceling yoga to lay in bed with the third migraine that month

• In and out of doctor's offices for years with twelve prescriptions and no answers

• Working out as much as they used to but suddenly gaining weight

HAVE YOU BEEN LISTENED TO ABOUT WHAT’S GOING ON WITH YOUR HEALTH?

I MEAN REALLY HEARD AND SEEN? 

I offer a free 30-minute Discovery Call to anyone who is struggling to feel heard about their health. It’s a space where you can feel safe to express everything you are going through with your health. It’s a place where I can listen and honestly reflect back whether or not what I have to offer could make a difference for you.

We'll talk about where you are now and where you'd like to be so we can get started on a custom plan to get you feeling better soon.

This Work Is Personal

MY JOURNEY BACK TO BALANCE BEGAN WITH A HEALTH CRISIS

My teen years were fraught with overwhelming depression. I believe this started as an innate sense of perfectionism, a need to always be proving myself that led me into a regular habit of driving myself into the ground.

I was not trained early on how to nurture myself. So my depression was kept secret and left untreated. It eventually festered into body dysmorphia, an eating disorder, and, ultimately, suicidal ideation. 

As I became an adult, a high-powered career in investment banking provided plenty of distraction from my ongoing battle with chronic depression. It also further inflamed my tendency to choose coffee over sleep, and extreme fitness over balanced exercise and nutrition. Years of chronic stress, depression, and a lack of nutrition, eventually morphed into a litany of digestive, inflammatory, and autoimmune conditions. IBS and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis were just two of the ways my body began to cry out for attention. 

Western medicine was of little help. I didn’t feel understood or listened to. So I started to search for my own answers to my health issues. I pored over books on nutrition, psychology, and holistic wellness. Every shred of information I gained brought me one more step toward my own physical and emotional healing. 

This was now my world. As I began to heal my relationship with food, learn the concepts of balanced physical fitness, and prioritize rest for body and mind, I began to heal my body too. My inflammatory and autoimmune conditions subsided through food, supplements and other natural remedies and lifestyle habits. 

As I began to realize the power of the mind and body to heal itself, I came to understand that it was time to close the chapter on my corporate investment banking career. I turned towards healing, instead.

I am passionate about working as a guide to help my clients listen to their intuition and begin to heal themselves from the inside out, like I did.

Over the years, my journey into the world of wellness has included:

• Earning a master’s degree in Holistic Wellness

• Specializing as a Holistic Health Practitioner with the Institute for Integrative Nutrition

• Study with the world’s top health and wellness experts

• Registering with the American Association of Drugless Practitioners

• Becoming a member of the International Association of Health Coaches

• Earning a Fitness Nutrition and Weight Loss Specialization from the National Academy of Sports Medicine

• Becoming certified as a Pilates instructor by Kinected Pilates in NYC 

• Adding further specializations in Pilates for Pregnancy from Pilates on Fifth, and Pilates for Osteoporosis from Kinected.

• Consulting as a Functional Medicine Nutritionist at the renowned Rising Health Speciality Clinic in Salt Lake City, UT

• Speaking in the Corporate arena presenting regular “Powerful Brain, Healthy Body” Corporate Wellness programs with Blomquist Hale Consulting, among others.

Today, I am virtually symptom free and enjoying the best health of my life. This has freed me to enjoy raising three energetic young boys, cooking healthy meals, spending plenty of time in nature, and helping others to reclaim their lives.

How We Will Work Together

Your personal journey is as unique as you are. You might have already tried any number of things to feel well again. In my experience, the “diet”, “quick fix” or “one size fits all approach” is ineffective. It simply masks our symptoms, providing temporary relief at best. To truly heal, we need to uncover the cause of our issues and heal them from the root. Your key to health, healing, and vitality lies in creating a nutritional lifestyle that works for you, with results that will last a lifetime. Together, we will map out a journey through fitness, nutrition, rest, and balance that feels like an extension of who you are.

As a Functional Medicine Nutritionist, I will be your personal advocate for living an energized, healthy, vibrant life. I have spent years empowering, coaching and guiding clients in their quest for health, healing and a higher quality of life.

My approach is real, flexible, and practical, free of guilt, denial and restriction. Making incremental, sustainable changes to food and lifestyle habits will reset your “norm” & create a new level of wellness that’s yours for your lifetime.

Imagine what your life would be like if you had clear thinking, energy, & vitality every day?
