My story

 

My health journey began five years ago when my entire world was turned upside down. Following what seemed a minor accident, I was diagnosed with a mild concussion in the fall of 2018. The initial recovery of two weeks turned into a nearly two year battle of persistent and debilitating concussion symptoms. Re-diagnosed with a TBI (traumatic brain injury) and post concussive syndrome, I was unable to function as I battled chronic physical and mental fatigue, mood irregularities, constant over stimulus, and worsening mental health. It took 5 different health care professionals; leaving appointments feeling completely discouraged; a specialist in the field telling me “this would just be my new normal”; and an unwaveringly determined mom that I finally found a doctor who was able to get me back to ME!

This doctor took a holistic, functional medicine approach to my treatment. After 6 months of intensive brain therapy, I was finally feeling more and more like myself. Throughout this process, I developed a more hands on approach in my recovery. By addressing things I could do to put my health back in my hands, I experienced the biggest shift in my healing journey which ignited my passion to help others do the same. 

Throughout the past three years, I have made it my mission to work towards understanding health from a holistic and empowering point of view. I am always learning and my understanding of wellness is constantly evolving. Yet, something that has always remained consistent is my belief our health is the most precious thing we possess. So let’s take care of it together!!! 

The world of health and wellness can be extremely overwhelming, but leading a healthy lifestyle doesn’t have to be. I hope to make this field easier to navigate, giving you the tools to live a life of abundance, and in turn help others do the same!

All it takes is an open heart and mind <3.
