My Story
Story
I live with 5+ chronic conditions, Crohn, Fibromyalgia, Ehler Danlo’s Syndrome (EDS), Endometriosis & Scoliosis being some of the ones that affect me the most. My conditions come and go in flares, and a few years ago I got very ill. I was completely knocked out on all fronts. This is my story…
Even laying with my eyes closed listening to the TV was too much for me. My body was on fire from within, everything hurt, and I had no energy. My memory was so bad that I had a hard time formulating sentences while speaking, and writing. The words just weren’t there, and while writing they jumped around on the page. I didn’t know if the color green was spelled with q or z… In other words complete chaos.
I have worked very hard to find a balance in my life, where I work in unison with my body and don’t bulldoze it to do just a little bit more. I have learned to not only speak kindly to myself but also act kindly, by not doing more than I have the energy to do right now, no matter how much I have been able to do in the past. I was made to feel like it was all in my head and no one took me seriously. So I can totally relate to the struggle it is trying to take back the power over your body and well-being. Dealing with the cause not just managing the symptoms.
Why Choose Me
W h y
I have spent the past 15 years or so educating myself so that I can provide myself with the tools I need to live my life the way I want, in unison with my body.
After having worked in education for almost 20 years I decided to leave that behind and start my own company to help others through their health journeys. A Holistic approach to health that I lacked when I was going through mine. While fighting to be heard and to get the right diagnoses, I had to go to one doctor for one condition, another for the next and a third to deal with stress, a fourth to get help with nutrition, which was very hard to find to begin with. No one dares helping you with nutrition when you have IBD, and if they do it’s all about what to eliminate, not what to add, which makes you feel like you have to sacrifice everything, parts of who you are, to feel good. I would have liked having one person to help me with all aspects of health and healing. Even when going to stress and pain management there was zero focus on food. Having a good doctor is imperative, but having somoeone that guides you through your journey and all its parts would have made my journey a lot less exhausting.
I’m a Certified Health Coach which among other things entails Coaching, Stress Management, Sleep Management, Self Compassion and Mindfulness, as well as Vegan Chef, Licenced Nutritionist for Omnivores and Vegans , Yoga teacher in Ashtanga/Hatha/Yin/Restorative/Medi yoga, and Certified in Ayurvedic treatments, Massage Therapist, and CPR instructor.
I believe that health is so many different things, we need to take care of our body inside and out, body, mind and soul to be in balance. We need to shift the focus from weight to well-being, from what we have to abstain from to all the amazing things we can include in a healthy lifestyle. Focusing on weight and diets only create a taboo and a distorted relationship to food, which in my opinion should be filled with enjoyment.
There’s no quick-fix, it takes dedication, patience and hard work to get back to being in balance once we have lost it, but there is hope, and I am here to guide you in your journey. These are skills you will benefit from having for the rest of your life, so that next time life happens and you forget to live your best life, it is so much easier to find your way back. I am passionate about helping others achieve a balanced life so that they don’t feel like they have to do it all on their own. Because it can be very overwhelming to say the least, trying to change your habits, especially when you feel alone.
I help you take back the power of your body and wellbeing.
So that you feel empowered to create a full life in balance with your body, not working against it.
A life filled with energy and joy.
