Growing up, I struggled with indigestion or upset stomach, and took Pepto-Bismo or Tums almost daily. As a teenager I struggled with heavy, irregular cycles, painful periods, facial hair, intense sugar cravings, and severe fatigue. Eventually my mom took me to the Gynecologist who diagnosed me with polycystic ovarian syndrome, or PCOS. I was prescribed birth control to help regulate my cycle, but after getting a rash from it the first night taking it, I never took it again (thank God!).

A few years later, I developed multiple skin and scalp issues, including skin tags, and dyshidrotic eczema. This type of eczema caused my hands to severely itch and blister. It would often flare up during the summer months. Eventually I went to see a Dermatologist who prescribed me steroids, and again, it did not help.

In college, my mom’s friend referred me to a holistic healthcare center. Desperate for answers, and with the little money I had, I booked my first appointment. The NTP at the time told me that “the body could heal itself”...something I never heard before. It was then my life forever changed.

Four years later I suffered from a lower back injury and went to see a Chiropractor. He reminded me of the same thing the NTP had told me, and in a few weeks, I witnessed my body heal itself from the excruciating pain. However, my story does not end there. Six years later I decided to get my hormone levels checked because my husband and I were going to start TTC. This led me to see an Endocrinologist who ended up giving me an unexpected diagnoses of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, an autoimmune disease. I was yet again prescribed more medications that did not fix the root cause.

It was at this point of my life that I decided to take my health into my own hands. I was tired of seeing doctor after doctor, and not getting answers to what was actually going on. In 2022 I went back to school to become an NTP and discovered the truth about the body’s innate wisdom and ability to heal itself.

I eventually discovered the root cause of my PCOS and autoimmune disease and began putting them into remission…

Today, I no longer experiences frequent indigestion, my sugar cravings have vanished, the eczema on my hands is completely gone, and I finally have energy to get out of bed in the mornings after struggling for YEARS! I was also able to regulate my cycle, and experience pain-free periods!

I am grateful for my health journey because it is has taught me valuable lessons along the way…now, I hope to help other women heal from their health issues. Healing is possible.
