RN · NTP · Restorative Wellness Practitioner

A Registered Nurse turned Restorative Wellness Practitioner — helping women find real answers after years of being told everything is "normal."

I'm a Registered Nurse and Restorative Wellness Practitioner. But before I share the credentials, let me share the real story — the one that changed everything.

For as long as I can remember, my dream was to become a nurse. All I ever wanted was to help and serve others with purpose and compassion. I achieved that dream, but as I dove deeper into my career, I felt like all I was doing was giving people "band-aid" solutions. I was sick of only helping people mask their symptoms. I wanted to dig deeper.

What I didn't realize was that my own body was about to teach me the most important lesson of my career.

My Health Journey

My health journey began with battling depression, anxiety, irregular periods, and gut dysfunction. I went from doctor to doctor, tried different medications, experimented with countless diets — all with no success. I felt completely lost and hopeless.

After having our first child, I experienced a miscarriage. The grief was overwhelming, but I pushed through. We were blessed with our second child, and I thought maybe things would stabilize.

Then came two more miscarriages.

Three losses total. Three times I was told it was just "one of those things" or "bad luck" or "stress." I knew in my gut there was more to the story. My body wasn't randomly failing me — it was crying out for help. But no one was listening.

The Discovery That Changed Everything

I refused to accept "we don't know why" as an answer. I started investigating everything — our home, our environment, our lifestyle. That's when we discovered it: mold.

Our water heater had leaked years back with a previous owner. We had no idea that mold had been growing in our home, wreaking havoc on my body for years. My body was so overwhelmed with toxins that it couldn't support new life.

This discovery led me to nutritional therapy and functional approaches to healing. I learned about detoxification pathways, mineral imbalances, and how environmental toxins disrupt everything from hormones to immunity to fertility. I began the work of truly supporting my body from the inside out — and for the first time in years, I started to feel like myself again.

Not just surviving, but thriving.

Now I Help Others Find Real Answers

My journey of loss became my greatest teacher. Between wanting to get to the root cause of my own suffering and being tired of giving patients band-aid solutions in my nursing career, I discovered that total toxin reduction, detoxification, and mineral balancing were the true missing links.

There is hope. There is healing. Your body isn't broken — it's burdened. And when we remove those burdens, incredible healing can happen.
