My Story

Like many people in natural health, my journey started with my own health struggles—but what I discovered along the way changed everything.

​

In my mid-20s, I walked through infertility along with significant pregnancy-related complications, followed by other health challenges. It forced my husband and me to take a hard look at how we were caring for our health—and what we were missing.

 

Through prayer and a complete shift in our mindset, we began making changes.  But over time, I realized something deeper.

​

The Missing Piece

Like so many others, I focused heavily on the physical side of health—nutrition, herbs, and natural remedies.  And while those things matter, I began to see that they weren’t the full picture.

​

The body cannot fully heal if it is stuck in a chronic stress response.  We are spirit, soul (mind), and body.  If we ignore the mind and the nervous system, we are leaving a major piece unaddressed.

​

This became very real to me during my own recovery from severe mold toxicity.  That experience showed me firsthand how powerful the mind and nervous system are when it comes to healing.

 

What I Do Now

Because of that, I now focus on helping people retrain their nervous system so their body can come out of stress mode and begin to heal.  This work is sometimes called limbic retraining, but I simply refer to it as nervous system retraining—helping your body come out of a constant “fight or flight” state and return to the way it was designed to function.

​

Once that foundation is in place, we can then support the body more effectively with nutrition, herbs, and other natural approaches.

​

My Background

Over the years, I’ve earned certifications as a:

• Naturopath

• Master Herbalist

• Certified Natural Health Professional

• Certified Limbic Retraining Coach

​

My husband and I also spent years building and running a small, organic medicinal herb and elderberry farm outside Kansas City, where we grew over 175 medicinal herbs, kept animals and bees, hosted a variety of events and and taught many classes on how to live more naturally.

​

Faith + Healing

As a Christian, I believe God is the source of all healing.  My role is to walk alongside you, offering guidance, tools, and support—helping you align your body, mind, and spirit so your body can function the way it was designed.

​

Today

In 2023, our family relocated to Chattanooga, Tennessee, where I now focus on teaching, coaching, and helping others experience real, lasting healing.

​

If you feel stuck in your health journey, you’re not alone—and there is a path forward. I’d be honored to walk that with you.
