I always thought I was a "good" eater...

...until a life-altering health diagnosis showed me otherwise!

Growing up as a swimmer and water polo player, I took my health seriously. However, as an "Elder Millennial" who grew up in the 90's, the nutrition and diet zeitgeist of the time was absolutely abhorrent (hello, fat-free craze!) 

Fast forward to 2021 and my year from hell...

I had just opened a shiny new boutique fitness studio. Not even a month into opening our doors, my body TOTALLY betrayed me!

After 8-months of various medical tests and feeling like death was around the corner, I was finally properly diagnosed with Addison's Disease, where my body doesn't produce it's own stress-hormones. It's just about the dumbest auto-immune disorder. And yes, it can be fatal. Outside of the scary consequences, I truly thought to myself, "HOORAY! I can get the proper treatment and medications I need and move on with my life.

WRONG! If only it worked like that...

It was still another 2 years of learning, adapting, sickness, feeling like hot-garbage, etc. before I FINALLY felt like myself again. The biggest lesson: NUTRITION WAS EVERYTHING, and what I learned as someone with an autoimmune disorder was that EVERYONE can benefit from what I learned. I'm here to save you time, agony, EXPENSES and confusion... by sharing what I've learned to help you feel that best you've ever felt and live a truly THRIVING LIFE!
