About
I’ve been on a healing path for over nine years now after receiving my diagnosis. I didn’t resonate with the diagnosis, and my strong-willed personality was determined to heal my body, despite being told it was a life sentence. My joints would be very swollen, sometimes to the point that I couldn’t move them or walk, and as an athlete so reliant upon my body it was devastating, both physically and emotionally. I lived every single day from the moment I woke up to the moment I went to bed, and with every single bite, wondering when my joints may swell again. It was always on my mind, in good health or bad, and all consuming.
I tried almost everything, meeting with countless doctors and specialists, trying everything from medication to ongoing physical therapy to exploring surgical options. Luckily, I was familiar with and believed in natural healing techniques, and met with many fantastic naturopathic doctors, nutritionists, and holistic therapists. I started to understand how interconnected the body is and that the swelling was not specific to a certain part of the body, but part of an entire system that needed to work together. I started to see the connection of my stress levels and when my body parts would become swollen. At first, I focused primarily on healing my gut. I changed my diet and was aware of every single bite and drink that went into me. All the while I maintained my stressful job and lifestyle, supporting myself in the Bay Area, maintaining my home and perfect lifestyle from the outside. It was my insides that were completely suffering, however. No matter what healing modality I tried that would temporarily help, the swelling would inevitably return.
Through the healing and seeing the stress I was under, I quit my job. It wasn’t at all planned, but I was being guided to do so. I haven’t had a swollen joint since that day I put myself first. I realized that I had
been so sick from my mind, my thoughts, my stress, my unhappiness, and from a life unfulfilled. I focused on refilling my cup with connection, love, health, and nature from that moment forward. I jumped all in, to myself and my journey, and I learned the secrets to health.
I don’t want anyone to suffer in confusion and alone like I did. I want to help others navigate their own unique journey to unravel their own clues to health. It starts with facing how you got yourself sick, then you can peel the layers back to health, back to your core, back to love. I healed myself physically, mentally, and spiritually. My life’s calling is to help others that may be where I was. I want to help others see where they could release fear, trauma, toxins or more, and replenish with self-love, acceptance, and all the healing that nature provided. I am here for you. I see you. I understand. I have been there.
