Craving Better Health

Craving Better Health The FASTer Way to fat loss program is helping me recover from an autoimmune disease. Its a program that incorporates nutrition, strength training and mindset!

Now I coach midlife women to be their best self using the proven FW program! My experience as a former educator and working mom in corporate America allow me to relate to the challenges of today’s busy employees in all industries. I developed a passion for Whole Health Education after I was able to alleviate painful arthritis through better nutrition and yoga. My background includes:

Starting your day with gentle movement, before the world gets loud, is one of the most powerful gifts you can give yourself. A simple walk like this boosts circulation, wakes up your muscles and joints, and supports blood sugar balance so you’re less likely to crave quick fixes later in the day. It also lowers cortisol, calms your nervous system, and gives your brain a hit of feel-good neurotransmitters that improve mood and focus. When you choose a quiet, intentional “win” first thing, you anchor your day in clarity instead of chaos—and that mental and physical momentum follows you into every decision you make.

I just got my Function Health labs back... and my biological age came in at 47.4 even though I’m 60. I’ve been doing the FASTerWay lifestyle for 2 years now. I’m sharing it because midlife women are rarely shown what’s actually possible when you combine strength training, hydration, smart FASTer Way nutrition, daily movement, and lots of self care!
I walk, I lift, I shop the perimeter at Whole Foods, and I follow a plan that supports my hormones and metabolism instead of fighting them. If you’re 50+ and you want your labs - and your life - to tell a different story, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Follow for realistic midlife wellness you can stick with, and DM me ‘April’ if you want to learn more about our upcoming 5 day intro into this program. ®

Would doing this have prevented my rare autoimmune diagnosis almost 3 years ago? I’ll never know but I hope my story inspires you too consider Function Health. It is a membership-based service that gives you deep, preventive lab testing so you can track your whole-body health over time rather than just reacting when something goes wrong. A single membership includes more than 160 lab tests each year, looking at hormones, heart health, thyroid, nutrients, metals, metabolism, autoimmunity, liver function, inflammation, and other key markers that traditional annual bloodwork often skips. The goal is to build a personal baseline, monitor for early signs of dysfunction or disease, and make targeted changes in areas like nutrition, lifestyle, and medical follow‑up before symptoms become serious. This is about prevention, not just managing illness!

If your plan doesn’t include rest, it’s not a real plan.
Your muscles, hormones, and nervous system need one true down day so your body can repair and actually respond to the work you’re doing all week. Sunday isn’t you “falling off the wagon” — it’s a strategic part of the FASTer Way lifestyle. Rest, refuel, connect with people you love, and watch how much stronger you show up on Monday.

It’s wild looking back at this moment — when I was flexible, strong, teaching yoga every week — before an autoimmune disease attacked my fascia and changed everything.
I couldn’t walk, get dressed, or hold a hair dryer for years. But by shifting my focus to what I could do — nourishing my body with whole foods, staying hydrated, strength training, being open to holistic healing methods like sauna/red light therapy/rebounding/journaling and leaning into others that love me for support — I started to heal. I’m still healing but I’ve come so far and I’m grateful! 🙏
I may not teach yoga yet, but today I coach midlife women to rebuild their strength from the inside out and be able to live their best lives! Im happy sharing my story inspires others! Sometimes life takes us on a different path and sometimes it’s even better!

For most midlife women, the easiest way to hit 7,000 - 10,000 steps is to layer movement into things you’re already doing all day instead of trying to get it all in one workout.
Break it into bite-sized walks
• Do three 10-15 minute walks (morning, midday, evening) instead of one long one; these short bouts can easily add 3,000-4,000 steps.
• Add “anchor” walks to habits you already have, like a lap around the block after coffee, after lunch, and after dinner.
Build steps into daily life
• Park farther away, take stairs when you can, and walk to talk to someone instead of texting; these small swaps add up.

• Turn housework into step-boosting time (laundry, cleaning, tidying) and keep your tracker on so those steps count.
