My Functional Health Coaching Journey

  • 2009
    Dealing with Chronic Migraines
    My journey into functional medicine began 15 years ago when I suffered from debilitating migraines. My primary care provider prescribed Topamax, which didn’t help and had unwanted side effects. Frustrated, I started searching for real answers.
  • 2010
    Discovering Functional Medicine
    In 2010, I was invited to run a fitness center in a functional medicine doctor’s office, where I met Dr. Shilpa Saxena. This relationship opened my eyes to understanding the root causes of my migraines, ultimately leading me to become a functional medicine health coach.
  • 2015
    Rheumatoid Arthritis
    At 50, I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis and faced a rheumatologist who recommended Methotrexate. Concerned about its side effects, I sought alternative solutions through functional medicine. After reading The Autoimmune Solution by Dr. Amy Meyers and trying the Wahls Protocol, I found relief through dietary changes and supplements, reversing my RA symptoms without medications.
  • Ongoing
    Uncovered Root Causes
    Through my journey, I discovered that my RA was likely triggered by mold in my home. With lifestyle changes and gut health improvements, my life transformed. I still occasionally experience mild migraines, but they no longer send me to the ER, and I remain symptom-free from RA.
  • 2019 - Today
    Life in Colorado
    Now, I live a vibrant life in Colorado, enjoying skiing, hiking, weight training, and spending time with my energetic granddaughter! I work with clients who feel let down by conventional medicine, helping them understand how diet, movement, sleep, and stress impact their health. Together, we often uncover root causes through simple tests like the GI MAP or Mycotoxin test.
