I help you cut through the confusing world of health and get to the root cause of your symptoms so you can heal from the inside out.

Way too many people are walking around with symptoms like fatigue, bloating, eczema, anxiety and more...and they're told it's normal and there's nothing they can do about it. I strongly believe there is ALWAYS something you can do to improve your health. From my own journey with autoimmune illness; to overcoming my children's struggle with allergies, asthma and eczema; to working with top nutritionists, physicians, and naturopaths to help my husband's NBA career extend well beyond the average length in years, I've learned so much along the way. I've been blessed to have learned from the world's leading health and wellness experts like Dr Frank Lipman, Dr Mark Hyman, Dr Walter Willet, and MANY more, through my Certified Health Coach schooling at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, my AutoImmune Paleo Coach certification, and my Masters of Clinical Nutrition and Human Performance from Logan University. And I want to teach you everything I know so you can be empowered to take back your own health and live life to the fullest.

Many people with autoimmune disease are told:

“There’s nothing we can do.”
“Let’s just monitor it.”
“Take this when it gets worse.”

But what if that’s not the full story?

What we repeatedly see in our practice is a strong overlap between toxin burden and autoimmune flares.

When we test (not guess), we can:
✔ Identify specific toxins
✔ Use strategic binders based on affinity
✔ Support gut integrity
✔ Modulate hormones when needed
✔ Track labs and symptoms over time

And when toxin levels come down…
Symptoms often track with improvement.

Pain decreases.
Fatigue lifts.
Rashes calm.
ANA levels drop.

Autoimmune conditions are multifactorial — genetics, gut permeability, triggers, toxins, stress. It’s never just one thing.

But when you look at the whole picture and create a personalized plan, the body often responds beautifully.

Autoimmune clients are some of our favorite to work with — because giving someone their power back is everything.

If you or someone you love feels stuck or hopeless with an autoimmune diagnosis:

Most people think dogs are good for your heart metaphorically - But the data suggest they may be good for your cardiovascular system too.

Nearly a decade ago, the American Heart Association (AHA) published a Scientific Statement concluding that pet ownership (especially dogs) may be associated with reduced cardiovascular disease risk. (Circulation. 2013;127:2353–2363)

A more recent review in Current Hypertension Reports (2022) reiterated that message:
✔️ Dog ownership appears associated with lower risk of developing hypertension ✔️ May improve blood pressure control in those who already have it ✔️ Dog owners often have lower resting heart rates ✔️ Some studies show lower cholesterol and triglycerides

The proposed mechanism? 👉 Pets dampen the body’s stress response. Reduced sympathetic activation. Improved autonomic tone. Lower cortisol output (aka lower stress markers).
Chronic stress drives hypertension, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, and inflammation.

AND Large cross-sectional studies consistently show dog owners:
• Walk more • Are more likely to meet recommended physical activity guidelines • In some studies, are less likely to be obese • Report healthier blood sugar levels

In the Kardiovize Brno 2030 prospective cardiovascular study (Eur J Prev Cardiol. 2018), adults who regularly walked their dogs had more favorable cardiometabolic profiles than nondog owners.

Even 30 minutes of light-to-moderate walking daily is associated with reduced risk of:
– Coronary heart disease – Type 2 diabetes – Colon and breast cancer – Osteoporosis
And regular activity improves sleep depth and quality too!

Sometimes prevention doesn’t look like another supplement. Sometimes it looks like a leash and a 30-minute walk. 🐾

Feel free to send this to whomever in your life you’re trying to convince to get a dog 🤣 You’re welcome!

I see it all the time: women doing cardio every day, afraid that lifting will make them “bulky” or they simply don’t know where to start.

But the truth is, resistance training is one of the most powerful things you can do for your long-term health.

It doesn’t have to be complicated or time-consuming to be effective.

I like to lift weights 3x per week with a simple split: upper body, lower body, and then full body.

Why resistance training matters ⬇️

Bone density: Weight-bearing exercise maintains bone strength and helps prevent osteoporosis as you age.
Hormone balance: Improves insulin sensitivity, supports healthy testosterone levels (yes, women need it too!), and helps balance estrogen metabolism.

Metabolic health: More muscle mass means you burn more calories at rest and have better glucose metabolism.
Cortisol regulation: Unlike excessive cardio that spikes stress hormones, strategic strength training supports a healthier stress response.

The key is finding what works for YOUR body and YOUR schedule.

If you’re dealing with hormonal imbalances, fatigue, or thyroid issues, we need to look at your unique situation to determine the right training intensity and frequency for you. Too much or too little can both be problematic, depending on what’s going on internally.

Drop a 💪🏼in the comments if you already strength train or plan on starting this year!

You don’t need more supplements. You don’t need another “gut reset” PDF. You don’t need to keep guessing.
What you need is a strategy. A plan built on data. And a team of experts that actually knows how to connect the dots.

If you’ve been: • Bloated all the time  • Tired of hormone chaos • Stuck in food fear or dealing with a wonky metabolism • Spending money on random protocols • Doing “all the right things” with little progress
…it’s time to stop DIY-ing your health.

In our 12-week Heal From Within program, we don’t chase symptoms. We identify root causes using functional labs, personalize your nutrition and lifestyle plan, and walk with you step-by-step so you actually get results — not temporary relief.

This is for women who are ready to: ✔ Feel confident in their body again ✔ Have stable energy and digestion ✔ Understand what’s actually going on inside ✔ Stop wasting time and money ✔ Invest in long-term health instead of quick fixes

You can keep trying to piece this together on your own… Or you can let experts help you do it faster, smarter, and more efficiently.

Your future self will thank you. 🤍

Everyone talks about longevity. But very few people understand the biology behind it.

If you want to age well, you need to understand AUTOPHAGY.

Stick with me for a minute while I explain the science.

Autophagy is your body’s built-in cellular clean-upsystem; a biological process whereold or damaged cells are identified, broken down, and recycled.

Think of it like the difference between a kitchen where everytime the trash was full you just took it outside into the can ... .and a kitchen where you never took out the trash and you just let it pile up and had to step around it and navigate the mess.

Autophagy = taking out the trash to keep things clean and efficient.

For years, meaningful activation in humans was thought to require prolonged water-only fasting - which is just not realistic for most people.

But NOW - human clinical research has demonstrated that a 5-day fasting-mimicking protocol can activate autophagy pathways while still eating thanks to the science of precisely engineered nutrition designed to stay below nutrient-sensing pathways.

That’s the key:�This isn’t about starvation.�It’s about strategic metabolic signaling.

In the same study, participants showed:� • Lower fasting insulin� • Improved insulin sensitivity� • Favorable metabolic shifts tied to long-term health

When done appropriately, a structured 5-day protocol can:� • Support fat loss while protecting lean tissue� • Support healthy metabolic markers� • Provide a metabolism reset

No hype. No extremes.
�Just working with your biology instead of against it.

This is something I’ve personally been doing for YEARS and have recommended it to hundreds of clients as well.

One of our clients, E, came to us thinking she was just “a little bloated.”

But she hadn’t felt comfortable in her own body in years. She’d normalized the daily bloat, the tight waistband by 2 pm, and had to unbutton her jeans after every meal.

When we ran her labs, we found H. pylori disrupting her stomach acid, an imbalanced gut microbiome with multiple overgrowths producing an excess of methane gas, low digestive enzyme production, and inflammation.

The conventional approach? “Try some probiotics” or “avoid certain foods.”

Our approach?
✔️Run comprehensive labs like a GI Map to see what’s actually happening in your gut.
✔️Look at your complete health picture, including hormones, digestion, and inflammation markers.
✔️Then create a customized protocol that addresses YOUR root causes using dietary changes, lifestyle modifications and strategic supplementation when needed.

Many people are told they have anxiety, IBS, hormone imbalance, or allergies…
When the real root cause is histamine overload + impaired breakdown.

Histamine issues are rarely random.
They’re often driven by:
✔ Gut imbalances
✔ Low DAO enzyme activity
✔ Hormone imbalance (especially estrogen dominance)
✔ Mast cell instability
✔ Nervous system stress
✔ Nutrient deficiencies

This is why symptom suppression alone doesn’t help in the end.
When your histamine bucket is too full due to any of the drivers above, that’s when you see symptoms. When the bucket overflows.

At KB Wellness, we don’t just label symptoms — we identify why your histamine bucket is overflowing and create a personalized plan to restore balance.

If this list felt uncomfortably relatable…

I wish I could wave a magic wand and make all your symptoms disappear overnight, but I can’t.

What I CAN DO is:
✔️run comprehensive functional labs to figure out WHY you have these symptoms in the first place
✔️design a customized protocol that addresses the root cause (not just covers it up)
✔️guide you through the process of actually fixing it so it doesn’t come back.

Brain fog, constipation, fatigue, hormonal acne, and stubborn weight are rarely standalone issues.

They’re usually your body’s way of telling you something deeper is out of balance.

Maybe it’s your gut microbiome. Maybe it’s your hormones. Maybe it’s nutrient deficiencies, chronic inflammation, or a combination of things that no one has looked at comprehensively yet.

Magic wands don’t exist. But root cause solutions do.
If you’re ready to stop wishing for a magic wand and start getting real answers, type HELP below and I’ll send you info on our Functional Health Assessment.

We’ll figure out what’s really going on and create a plan to fix it.

🧬 Aging isn’t just about candles on a cake — it’s about what’s happening inside your cells.

As we age, our cells naturally lose efficiency in: • DNA repair • Mitochondrial energy production • Detoxification pathways • Healthy cell turnover (replication and renewal)

Now add environmental toxin exposure on top of that — pesticides, plastics, mold toxins, heavy metals, air pollution — and the burden increases even more.

Here’s what the science shows 👇
Toxins can: → Increase oxidative stress (cell damage from free radicals) → Disrupt mitochondrial function (your cellular “energy factories”) → Interfere with cell signaling and replication → Accelerate inflammatory aging (“inflammaging”)

Translation? Your body has to work harder just to maintain baseline function — and cellular aging can accelerate.

But here’s the empowering part 👇
Your daily habits directly influence how well your body repairs and protects itself.
🌿 Holistic practices that support cellular resilience: • Sauna → increases heat shock proteins + supports detox pathways • Walking + movement → improves circulation + mitochondrial health • Sunlight → supports circadian rhythm + hormone regulation • Fresh air + nature exposure → lowers cortisol + oxidative stress • Sweating + hydration → supports elimination pathways • Sleep + nervous system regulation → enhances cellular repair

This isn’t about “detox teas” or quick fixes. It’s about supporting your body’s built-in repair systems so aging happens more slowly, more gracefully, and with better function.

At KB Wellness, we look at toxin load, detox capacity, mitochondrial health, and inflammation patterns using functional labs — then build strategies that actually protect long-term health.
