GET TO KNOW ME

In 2016, I experienced my first real battle with mental health. In 2018, I had my first panic attack. Later that year, I started experiencing chronic symptoms that just got worse over time. In 2020, I hit rock bottom — or so I thought. I was diagnosed with general anxiety and depressive disorders, PCOS, and hormone imbalance. I was experiencing pain in my joints, weight gain, OCD symptoms, tremors and numbness, cramps, RLS, severe acne, gut issues and leaky gut, fatigue, memory issues, nausea and vomiting, digestive issues, and stomach pain, and I was also living in a constant state of fight-or-flight. The only options given to me were pills and telling me to simply "exercise more." I could not imagine living life one more day, especially like this.

 

I spent years chasing answers and solutions to my debilitating symptoms, ending up in hospitals and on an endless journey of stress and overwhelm. In 2021, I really hit rock bottom and my nervous system completely crashed. I was finally diagnosed with mold toxicity, Lyme co-infections, parasitic infection, nutrient deficiencies, trauma-related PTSD and anxiety, blue light toxicity, and other infections and root cause issues. Since then, I have been on a journey to restore my health completely and be able to live my life normally again. It's a process that has not been easy, but I'm moving forward with a much healthier mindset now, despite how far I still have to go.

 

In 2022, I decided to begin my journey to becoming an integrative health practitioner. I knew that if I found anything that even slightly worked for me, I had to help others on a similar journey — I couldn't keep the information I learned just for myself. So I went back to school and took three years to receive four health certifications. I now hold the title of IHP2 and Quantum Specialist as well as being educated in functional blood chemistry. While I'm not 100% healed and still battle anxiety and various symptoms, the list of things I HAVE healed is long, and I can’t wait to share it with you! I understand what it's like to feel stuck in a loop with no way out — but I promise there is always hope.
