You probably think December is when things went wrong.

But December isn’t the beginning. It’s just the moment your body stopped being able to hide what’s been building for months.

All year long, your body has been adapting. Compensating. Working around inefficiencies. Buffering stress. Redistributing resources. Keeping symptoms quiet.

You had enough margin to manage. Enough reserve to push through. Enough capacity to stay functional.

December removes the margin.

More stimulation. Less sleep. Irregular meals. Higher stress load. More demand on every system at once. And suddenly, what your body was quietly handling becomes impossible to ignore.

Your digestion feels off. Your energy crashes harder. Your sleep is lighter. Foods that used to sit fine now leave you feeling heavy. Small stressors feel massive.

It feels sudden. But it’s not.

What you’re noticing now has been building quietly all year. December just turned up the volume.

And honestly? That’s useful. Because now you know exactly where your body needs support. Now you can see the patterns. Now you have real information to work with.

December isn’t punishing you. It’s showing you the truth. And that truth is what you’ll use to build real stability in January.

This is exactly the kind of pattern work I do in Health Strategy Sessions. If you want help connecting the dots between what you’re feeling and what’s actually happening in your body, I can help.

Holiday blood sugar isn’t about sugar — it’s about your nervous system

You ate sweet potatoes and your glucose spiked to 180.

But yesterday you had beans and barely moved the needle.

So you start thinking: “I can’t eat sweet potatoes anymore. My body doesn’t tolerate them.”

But here’s what’s actually happening- Your blood sugar response in December isn’t just about the carbs on your plate. It’s about the state your nervous system was in when you ate them.

That sweet potato? You probably ate it late at night after a long day. Maybe at a party where you were standing and talking for an hour before sitting down to eat. Maybe after rushing around all day without a real meal. Your nervous system was already running hot when that food arrived.

The beans? Maybe you ate them at home. Sitting down. Relaxed. Earlier in the day. Your body was in a completely different state.

Same food category. Completely different internal environment.

Stress doesn’t just make you feel anxious. It literally changes how your body processes food. It slows digestion. It makes insulin less efficient. It amplifies glucose responses. It turns a normal meal into a dramatic spike.

This is why you can eat the exact same food twice and get two completely different results. It’s not about the food being “bad.” It’s about the context it’s being eaten in.

December isn’t the time to start cutting out foods. It’s the time to start noticing patterns. When do you feel steady? When do you crash? What’s happening in your environment when things go sideways?

Your body isn’t broken. It’s responding exactly the way it’s designed to under increased load. And the more you understand that, the less you’ll blame yourself for normal physiology.

If you’ve been confused by your own readings and want help making sense of the patterns, that’s exactly what I do in Health Strategy Sessions. You don’t have to figure this out alone.

The part of healing no one talks about

My client has been the picture of health for decades. Strong energy, great habits, rarely sick.

Then testing showed her gut needed support. Months of it.

The supplements? Easy. The protocol? She’s got it down. The lifestyle shifts? No problem.

What’s been hard? Accepting that this takes time.

She’s used to fixing things fast and moving on. But gut rebalancing doesn’t work that way.

The microbes don’t care about your timeline. The biofilms break down when they’re ready. Your detox pathways rebuild at their own pace.

You can’t rush biology, even when you’re doing everything right.

She feels amazing. Full energy. Crushing it at work. But she’s still in process. Still supporting systems that are quietly rebuilding.

And that’s been the hardest part—being okay with “in progress” when everything feels fine.

Real healing is subtle. No dramatic transformations. No instant results. Just consistent support over time, even when you can’t see what’s happening.

For someone who’s used to quick wins, this is a whole different game. It requires patience with your body’s natural rhythm. Trust when there’s no immediate proof. Being okay with the long game.

The people who get the best results? They stop measuring by speed and start measuring by consistency.

Not “how fast can I finish this” but “how well am I supporting my body through each phase.”

If you’re someone doing all the right things but it’s taking longer than expected—you’re not failing. You’re just working with biology, and biology has its own timeline.

Why does my glucose DROP when I start eating?

Most people expect blood sugar to rise immediately when eating. So when you see it dip as you take your first bites, it can feel concerning.

But here’s what’s actually happening: Your nervous system is shifting into rest-and-digest mode.

When you’re stressed (even mildly), your liver releases glucose into your bloodstream. Blood sugar rises without food.

When you start eating in a calm state, your vagus nerve signals safety. Your liver stops releasing extra glucose. Blood sugar dips gently as digestion begins.

This is called a vagal-mediated glucose drop. And it’s a good sign.

Yesterday, my glucose went 115 → 103 as I started eating.

No crash. No jitters. Just grounded and normal.

This is what healing regulation feels like.

How to support this:

1. Take 10 slow breaths before eating
2. Drop your shoulders
3. Let your stomach soften
4. Stay seated while eating
5. Chew without rushing

These cues tell your body: “We’re safe. It’s okay to digest.”

This is not instability. This is regulation.

It means your liver is less reactive, your muscles are accepting glucose, your blood sugar isn’t driven by stress anymore, and your body is rebuilding.

This is the phase where things start feeling calmer, steadier, more grounded.

This is where deeper healing begins.

If you’ve been doing everything right but your body still feels confusing, there are ways to understand what it’s telling you.

I help people interpret these patterns and create sustainable rhythms that work with their body.

Why some Thanksgiving meals feel heavier than others

It’s not just about what’s on your plate.

Holiday meals hit differently because of what’s happening before you sit down: hours without eating, travel stress, dehydration, social stimulation, hosting responsibilities.

When these stack up, even normal holiday foods feel heavy.

A few simple things make a huge difference:

📌 Eat protein 60-90 min before the big meal (prevents arriving overly hungry)

📌 Sip water with minerals all day (most people are dehydrated without realizing it)

📌Have bitters before eating (lemon water, arugula, digestive bitters—supports comfortable digestion)

📌 Choose one anchor on your plate first (protein, veggies, or healthy fat)

📌 Take a 5-10 min walk after eating (supports normal blood sugar patterns)

Remember: rhythm > perfection (one meal doesn’t define your health)

This isn’t about restriction or “being good.” It’s about supporting your system so you actually enjoy the day—without the post-meal crash or food guilt.

Your metabolism responds to patterns over time, not one holiday meal.

People always ask me how I consistently eat fresh, balanced meals — especially on the days when life is moving fast.

Here’s my real answer:

When I come home from the grocery store, I never put ingredients away.
I batch cook immediately — one mess, one oven session, one cleanup, and I’m set for days.

Everything you see in this picture was prepped and cooked in the same window of time.
By the time it hits the refrigerator, it’s already done and ready to grab.

Why I do it this way

Most people don’t struggle because they don’t know what to eat — they struggle because their day gets away from them.

Batch cooking removes that obstacle:
    •    Your meals are balanced before the week even starts
    •    Digestion stays steadier when your inputs stay consistent
    •    Energy stays more even
    •    And you don’t lose time prepping food every single day

Healthy eating isn’t about spending hours in the kitchen — it’s about systems that support your rhythm.

One mess.
One oven session.
One cleanup.
Fresh meals for days.

If you want the framework I use (or you help patients who need a practical structure like this), send me a message. I’m always happy to share what works

I made this Tomato and Burrata Cheese with Basil and Extra Virgin Olive Oil today

Tomato + Burrata + Basil + Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Meals like this show how simple ingredients can support steady energy and a calm, grounded body.

When you pair natural carbohydrates (like tomatoes) with:
    •    Protein
    •    Healthy fats
    •    Aromatic herbs

…it changes how the meal is experienced inside the body.

The protein and fats act as the anchor, slowing the release of glucose so your energy stays even and steady, rather than rising quickly and dropping just as fast.

The olive oil provides satisfaction and fullness, helping the body recognize that it has been nourished.

And the basil?
Aromatic herbs help shift us into the rest-and-digest state — the place where we actually absorb what we eat.

There’s no restriction here.
No forcing.
No negotiating with hunger.

Just feeding the body in a way that communicates “you’re safe, there is enough, you can relax.”

This is such a good try! And I would love you to give a feedback when you try it out.

Your body isn’t broken. It’s just missing the tools.

You’re eating clean. Spending money on quality proteins. Doing everything right. But you still feel bloated after meals, crash by mid-afternoon, and look pregnant by dinner. You assume something’s deeply wrong with your gut or hormones.

The real issue is simpler. Your digestive system doesn’t have the enzymatic capacity to break down what you’re eating. Premium food means nothing if your body can’t process it.

Bromelain is an enzyme from pineapple stems that breaks down proteins into absorbable amino acids. Most people notice within days that meals digest smoothly, the afternoon crash disappears, bloating drops significantly, and workout recovery improves because muscles finally get what they need.

Eating pineapple won’t cut it. The enzyme is concentrated in the fibrous stem, not the fruit. You’d need amounts that would spike your blood sugar and irritate your mouth. A supplement gives you therapeutic levels without the problems.

I started taking this because I was tired of investing in food that didn’t match how I felt. My body needed help doing what it’s designed to do. Within a week, digestion shifted from effortful to effortless. That’s why it’s now in my dispensary.

If quality food isn’t translating to quality energy, the breakdown is happening before absorption. Your body just needs the right support.

What if the way you’re trying to heal is what’s keeping you tired?

One of my clients came to me with bacterial overgrowth and a parasite.
She wasn’t struggling. Her energy was strong, her work was demanding, and she managed it all well but her labs said something needed attention, and she wanted to clear it fast.

The instinct to act quickly makes sense when you’re used to performing at a high level but that’s exactly where most people go wrong.
Aggressive protocols that rely on “killing” or “detoxing” can backfire on a system that’s already running full speed.

We did it differently.
We supported her nervous system first.
We opened drainage and liver pathways before touching antimicrobials.
We tracked HRV and glucose to make sure her body could actually handle the process.

When we finally introduced the treatment phase, there were no crashes. No fatigue. Her energy actually increased.
She told me, “I thought healing meant slowing down. This made me feel stronger.”

Your body isn’t fighting you. It’s protecting capacity.
When you push too hard, it holds back to keep you functional.
When you build the foundation first, healing feels like optimization, not recovery.

If you’ve been feeling off but not “sick,” and you want to address what’s happening without losing your edge, I’m opening a few free Health Clarity Calls in November .
15 minutes to understand what your body is trying to tell you before it forces you to stop.

Most people don’t get nearly enough protein in the morning and it shows up as fatigue, brain fog, and mid-morning cravings.

Here’s how I fix that:

📌Leftover roasted broccoli
📌Half a baked sweet potato
📌4 eggs

The eggs give me about 28g of protein, the broccoli adds fiber + detox-loving nutrients, and the sweet potato gives me gentle carbs that keep my energy steady all morning.

The combo of protein + fiber + complex carbs = focus, satiety, and calm energy (no crashes 🙌🏽).

Tip: Batch bake sweet potatoes on the weekend so you can just reheat and go during the week.

Small shifts like this change everything — more energy, balanced hormones, and better focus.

Evening Reset for Your Nervous System

You don’t need an hour-long routine or a stack of supplements to unwind.
Sometimes, nervous system healing looks like:
📌Sitting quietly with your pet after a long day
📌Listening to soft music while you tidy up
📌Watching the sky fade into night

Just a few mindful minutes can shift your body from “doing” to “digesting.”
It lowers stress hormones, boosts your vagal tone, and tells your body: you’re safe to rest now.

These tiny rituals of calm build resilience that no supplement can replicate.

Start small tonight. Your nervous system will thank you. 💚

Your body’s been giving you breadcrumbs.

The weird energy dips that don’t make sense. The way your sleep tracker shows your HRV slowly trending down. How you used to skip breakfast no problem, but now you’re shaky by 10am.

You’ve probably written each one off. Stress, getting older or Just need more sleep.

But what if it’s not random at all?

I see this pattern constantly: Someone walks in with a lifestyle that would make any wellness influencer jealous. They’re eating organic, hitting the gym, taking their supplements. Everything by the book.

But their body keeps dropping hints that something’s not quite right.

Here’s what most people don’t realize: Your body doesn’t go from “perfectly fine” to “completely broken” overnight. There’s this whole middle zone where things are starting to shift, but you’re still functional enough that it’s easy to ignore.

Until you can’t anymore.

The clients who catch this early? The ones who pay attention to those breadcrumbs before they turn into boulders? They’re the ones who get to optimize instead of repair. They get to fine-tune instead of overhaul.

If you’ve been collecting breadcrumbs and wondering when it’s worth paying attention to them, that time is probably now.

I’m opening up a few free Health Clarity Calls this month for people who are ready to stop guessing and start understanding what their body’s actually trying to say.

Just 15 minutes of honest conversation about what you’re noticing, what might be worth looking into, and whether working together makes sense.
