My Story

For more than a decade, I have been on a unique health journey of my own. Diagnosed with epilepsy and migraines despite no family history, I dedicated myself to solving the mysteries surrounding these seemingly inexplicable conditions. After extensive investigation into possible underlying causes, I at last unearthed answers. In the process, I found a deep passion for functional medicine and its benefits for everyone – the force driving me to help others today.

Throughout my transformative process, a surprising yet pivotal revelation emerged regarding elevated estrogen levels in my body, which lower the seizure threshold. In my quest to eliminate potential causes such as endometriosis, PCOS, and fibroids, I underwent a comprehensive assessment, including laparoscopy, and pelvic ultrasounds.

While those specific conditions were ruled out, a battery of tests unveiled a multitude of underlying issues: a formidable array of harmful parasites, candida (yeast overgrowth), toxic metals and mycotoxins, chemical sensitivities, and mold illness. I also discovered four infections in my mouth where my wisdom teeth had been pulled and that were causing inflammation and required surgery to be cleared out. These findings shed light on many of the challenges I had been facing.

Taking action to address these issues became paramount, and resulted in substantial improvements in my overall well-being. It's truly remarkable to witness the direct and positive impact these interventions have had on my epilepsy, eradicating all migraines and headaches. Plus, eliminating the mold illness has truly restored my quality of life. With the mold illness addressed, the symptoms of estrogen dominance have also vanished.

Under the guidance of exceptional functional medicine practitioners, my personal experience and education, I have firmly embraced the critical importance of identifying and treating the root causes of ailments as the pathway to achieving authentic healing. My objective is to make the most of my experience and knowledge to assist others because I firmly believe in the effectiveness of Functional Medicine, and I am confident in my ability to support my clients through a positive, motivating coaching style that fosters a stress-free environment.
