I was unhealthy and 80 pounds overweight.
I was a yo-yo dieter my whole life. Losing gobs of weight just to gain it back months later.
I have 6 children and at that point in time I was not feeding them well. 4 of the 6 have a metabolic disorder they were born with, and the need to eat healthy was always a there, but I did not do well with their food when they were young. We ate all the pizza, chips, and snacks that were available which continued to cause problems with their health.
But then 2012 happened.
I totally hit rock bottom in my health. I had just had baby #5 and I had very horrible postpartum... I was so miserable. I was borderline diabetic, I had high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and neuropathy. I could not get in and out of the floor. I could not walk most of the day due to the pain in my feet and I felt hopeless.
I DECIDED that I was going to do something about my health. I was going to make a DIFFERENCE! AND I DID!
I bought a diet book at the bookstore, and I did exactly what it said. I began to see changes in my body and my life. My whole health changed dramatically. Because of this, I FOUND MY PASSION IN LIFE! To help others find their wellness, purpose, and abundance in their HEATLH.
So, I went back to school and became a FUNCTIONAL NUTRITION PRACTIONER, so I am able to help others change their life FOREVER as well.
So, what is a Functional Nutrition Practitioner? I help to fill a gab missing between doctor and patient. I bring clarity to why a problem arose and understand the person and their need. I use my skillset to address the terrain within the signs, symptoms, and diagnosis manifested to bring wellness to the whole person. Through the use of food, supplements, and lifestyle change, we are able to bring clarity to many areas of a person's life.
Honestly – the thing I’m most excited about is that it doesn’t take over my life – rather it serves it!
I love having the opportunity to serve others in such a magnificent way! I would love the opportunity to serve you as well.
