sick of not feeling good?
You are in the right place. Here we learn how to fuel our body and mind, which leads to healing, feeling good, and living our best lives.
health is a journey.
Following my doctor’s health advice, and the advice of conventional nutrition experts, I ended up on several medications and I was still depressed, still anxious, still overweight, and still experiencing new health problems. It made no sense. I just knew there had to be more to this whole health thing.
With my mental and physical health at rock bottom, I decided to do something crazy. I began to ask more questions. Over the last few years, I’ve discovered there's more to health and nutrition than the media and Western medicine portray.
I’m now 100% medication-free, and I am the absolute healthiest, strongest, and happiest I have ever been in my entire life at 31 years old. I started to blog because I’m committed to openly sharing what I’ve learned with you. I hope that my health journey can serve as a source of inspiration, information, and motivation for you to take your health into your own hands and begin your very own health journey.

Despite nutrition’s critical role in health, it’s the most under-taught subject to individuals and even doctors. As a result, there is a lack of understanding about how nutrition impacts health. Closing this knowledge gap is crucial. Understanding which foods are truly nutrient-dense, and what factors inhibit nutrient absorption, will positively impact your overall health. Expensive synthetic supplements shouldn't be necessary. I will also explore how different dietary approaches can serve as powerful tools for optimizing our health and addressing specific health conditions.

Living with depression, anxiety, and ADHD was a daily struggle, but I have come to learn my body was deprived of the right fuel. Now, I’m almost 2 years clean of all my medications and I no longer suffer from depression or anxiety and my ADHD has significantly improved.

From hair thinning and loss to PMDD, PCOS, acne, trouble losing weight, thyroid issues, diabetes, and sleep problems—I had no idea how important hormonal balance is for our overall health until I started experiencing a range of frustrating symptoms. The fast-paced, stressful environment we live in often drives us towards quick fixes, toxic ingredients, and synthetic alternatives that disrupt our hormonal equilibrium. I’ve made the decision to ditch my toxic birth control and replace all my conventional products with homemade alternatives. I know that rebalancing my hormones naturally and making lifestyle changes is the best way to take care of this problem at the root. It may be a slow process, but over the last year, I’ve seen incredible improvements.

I believe that all disease begins in the gut. When I was diagnosed with a leaky gut in November 2022, it was a mix of emotions, but mostly relief and hope. Finally, I had a starting point and a possibility to reverse some of my health problems by healing my gut. I am now diving deep into understanding the root causes, educating myself on what it takes to restore gut health, and learning how to discern the signs of healing.

Food intolerances are a complex and often misunderstood issue. Both my daughter and I experience different types of adverse reactions to gluten and wheat. Additionally, I cannot eat chicken without experiencing immense depression and emotional discomfort. While some may dismiss food intolerances as a passing fad, I truly believe that many individuals struggle with food intolerances and there is a deeper story behind them. I am convinced that by exploring the root causes, we may find ways to reverse or manage them.

And unlike other recipe blogs, my recipe cards are thoughtfully placed at the top of the page—no more endless scrolling or searching for that “jump to recipe” button.

I love being a mom, and I don’t mean to brag but my daughter is an amazing child. As a single parent, I know firsthand how challenging parenting can be. Raising amazing children is important because children are our future. Learning how to nurture and nourish their nutritional and emotional needs provides them the building blocks for long-term health and it paves the way for them to become responsible, confident, compassionate, and strong adults. My daughter also struggled with food-related health conditions that took me years to figure out. I will share more about those struggles, and our triumphs, to give others in similar situations hope and support.

I’ve always believed that just like a car, our bodies need the right fuel to function properly, thrive, and allow us to be our best selves. Food is fuel.
I’m extremely passionate about nutrition, health, healing from my traumas, helping others, and leading by example. I’m also passionate about being a great mom, a great friend, a great girlfriend—a great human.
I enjoy cooking, traveling, the beach, snowboarding, boxing, snorkeling, music, and spending time with my loved ones.
Currently living in Chicago. Born and raised in Pittsburgh. Plotting my move to the coast of southern California.
I make a living as a user experience designer. I’ve been designing websites and visual content for over a decade. UX combines my creative skills, my empathetic nature, and my fascination with psychology. I couldn't be happier with my career path, but I’m looking into becoming a certified health coach as an additional path because it pains me to see so many people struggling with health conditions that are largely avoidable. I want to be part of a larger movement and educate people about the power of nutrition.
Honesty, integrity, and empathy hold immense significance in both my personal and professional life. I always strive to do what is right and be honest.
