A small-town Ontario gal, former opera singer turned Functional Nutritionist after suffering from IBS.
I didn't always have a happy gut…
After watching my sister suffer from colitis, in and out of the hospital, misdiagnosed, misprescribed and in pain, I believed there had to be a better way!
In searching for answers for her I realized my gut was a hot mess express to an inflammatory bowel disease just like my sister, aunt, gammy and dad had.
Despite being a perfect pooper today, years ago you would find me most often stuck in the loo either waiting to poop or waiting to stop pooping. The pregnant bloat, angry poops, worrying where the bathroom was, fear of foods, left me exhausted and moody. I kinda thought this was normal, especially compared to watching my sister suffer. So I dismissed it, until I couldn’t any more.
I’d love to tell you this was the moment I fixed my gut for good... not so much!
I thought I just needed to follow a super restrictive diet, chug a few random supplements and that would fix my gut, but what really happened was my gut got worse! It wasn't until I started following a Responsive Sustainable Gut Repair System that my gut healed, I lost 70lbs, became a Registered Holistic Nutritionist + Gut Expert.
Until four years later, after living in a moldy home I got severely sick with Lyme Disease which left me unable to walk and re-ignited an unbelievable overgrowth of gut infections from H.pylori, parasites, EBV, candida and e.coli. From chronic pain, extreme fatigue, memory loss, bloating, raging acid reflux to debiliating chronic feet pain, in a fight for my life I went back to school to study Root Cause Functional Medicine, stealth infections and environmental toxins.
From barely walking to hiking mountains worldwide—my ultimate reclamation of health.
