I am a mom of 2, Registered Nurse and Functional Wellness Coach.   I spent the past 2 decades serving as a nurse in the ICU at multiple major academic medical centers in Kansas city and Denver metro areas.  As an ICU nurse, I was often isolated from the reality of how people managed their health in their everyday lives.

 

In my final year at the bedside, I began to see this reality first hand.  I transitioned to the ER for a change of pace. Most patients who came to the ER went home the same day, often presenting with vague symptoms that result in “normal” lab results. They were frequently sent home with the reassurance that “nothing is wrong.” But something was wrong—they felt terrible. Too many individuals are living with high blood pressure, fatty liver disease, diabetes, abdominal pain, vague neurological symptoms, and many other metabolic disorders that could be treated with simple diet and lifestyle changes.

​

While I was seeing this play out in the hospital I was also hearing from friends and family about their struggles with weight gain, low energy, depression and brain fog.  They were being told that these issues were simply due to aging. The current healthcare system is not digging deeper for answers and often doesn't believe that people can change their behavior to reverse disease.

 

I am not satisfied with that answer.  I believe in the power of humanity to make change.  I know that the amazing body we reside in has the power to heal from the inside out.   Over the past 10 years I have learned the power of food as medicine.  I have gained knowledge of the impact that our choices make on our biochemistry, microbiome and hormone balance.  I have experienced the life transformation of relieved belly pain, increased energy, improved sleep, mood and so much more.  

​

I see that simple shifts in our diet and lifestyle choices can make dramatic differences in our mood, energy and waistline.  I am passionate about empowering individuals to regain control of their health through diet and lifestyle changes designed to align with the biochemistry of the human body.
