One of my favorite things about being a holistic nutritionist is working with clients from all walks of life. Their symptoms, food preferences, lifestyle choices, and health goals all differ, and each of them is wonderfully unique in their own way. Getting to the root of their health problems is like a different puzzle that […]
One of the highlights of my career has been getting to work one-on-one with hundreds of clients. There is nothing more rewarding to me than helping guide someone on their path to health and happiness. I have had the honor of watching numerous clients take monumental strides in terms of their physical, mental, and emotional […]
Improving your circulation may not be at the top of your health goals this year, but it’s integral to your well-being, and I say it deserves a spot! You may know that blood circulation is vital for optimal blood pressure. But did you know it also plays a starring role in detoxification, energy levels, and […]
Many of my clients ask me questions about macronutrients. How much protein to eat, what sources of fat are best, or the most popular: “How should I calculate my macro ratio?” All good questions!

When I started my healing journey from cancer, I didn’t know to start with detoxification. I set out to take in as much knowledge surrounding health and healing as possible, and it wasn’t long before cleansing found me. It became clear so quickly that toxin overload plays a huge role in sickness today. Our bodies […]
Whether this sparkling time of year is your long-awaited favorite, or the endless holiday parties overwhelm you a bit (if we’re being honest, we’re all probably somewhere in the middle!), I think we can all agree that indulgent, decadent meals will be had and possibly hosted at some point or another. For those of us […]
If you know me, you know how much I love juicing—every single day! It is such an easy way to consume so many incredible nutrients in one go. Juicing was one of the most powerful tools that helped me to beat cancer (and many other health ailments, too)! Organic green juices are like liquid gold. […]
