Our Roots
THE JOURNEY
More times than not, people identify the start of their journey by a single defining moment relevant to their cause. Over the years, I have had to learn that the journey started a very long time ago…Long before I knew I was en route.
In 2003, I was formally diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I say formally because once I was diagnosed, I realized I had been unknowingly disregarding noticeable symptoms for over 2 years. Either way, that was one of the turning points in my life that got me to where I am today. For the beginning of my life with Multiple Sclerosis, I was doing everything doctors told me to do. That error was detrimental to my life. I took medication religiously. Didn’t miss a shot! Oddly, I was STILL suffering from various types of debilitation.
Multiple Sclerosis
Back in my day, they used chemotherapy to treat aggressive cases of Multiple Sclerosis. .
I will never forget the day that my doctor told me that she felt it was time to take chemotherapy.
I will cut to the chase and say…that was not an option. Check out the pilot episode of my show Functional Health
and Wellness. There, I give more of an in depth view of stages.
Expecting Change
Sometimes when your back is against the wall…medically…you are forced to go with your gut. My gut told me that I had been doing the same thing and expecting change. That day, is the day that I walked out of the doctor’s office and walked into my new world. I had already been pretty food conscious but now it was time to ramp it up with natural medicine. That was in 2009, now I am a Holistic Health and Wellness Coach, Sports Nutritionist, Certified Personal Trainer, Competitive Powerlifter and Herbalist.
Decades
I have learned so much in these two decades and I would love to help
people start from where they are to achieve greatness!
