😴Most women only look at their cortisol, from their blood work, and think the story ends there.

…but the the CONVERSION to cortisone tells you exactly how your body is handling stress behind the sense.

If your results don’t match how you feel, this is probably why.

Take it from me - I struggled for 2.5 years, and it wasn’t until I worked with my own Vidal coach that helped me understand that healing is possible!

DM “DUTCH,” and I’ll help you interpret your patterns the RIGHT way, and we will get you back on-track!

🤔 Are you afraid to start healing because you think it will remove all of the fun from your life and be too restrictive?

👉🏼 The TRUTH is…the world keeps on spinning, and it would directly impact your happiness and nervous system, as well as your goals, if all we did was starve you from your community, support system, and fun experience. There is room for adjustments.

I ask a lot of lifestyle questions, of my clients, because I don’t want to recommend things that won’t stick. Of course the journey to your health goals isn’t the easiest and it’s not always convenient, but if you do it correctly, it’s not forever.

🍽️ My client reached out to me today with concerns of failing her program because of family celebrations, dining out, and the holidays. I provided her with reassurance and the tools to order with confidence and then get back on-track, while still making memories. ✨

✅ There’s no better time, than the present, to start your health journey! There’s always going to be “something,” so why not team-up with a coach that will help you navigate all the things? 🤗

QUESTION: What’s been holding you back from starting your journey?

🤫Your body whispers before it screams.
These 5 symptoms are some of the biggest red flags I see in clients — and they almost always tie back to gut dysbiosis, inflammation, or poor digestion.

And no…

You don’t need another restrictive diet.

You need clarity on why your gut is struggling — and a plan that actually supports your biology. Working with me will get you this roadmap on how to thrive again.

If any of these felt familiar, it’s worth digging deeper.

🥳 Happy birthday weekend to me! Quality time, with the husband, sharing an inspiring meal together.

It’s been a LONG time since I’ve dined-in and walked away inspired to CREATE. This meal was full of spices and FLAVOR, and the chef’s Mediterranean and Spanish inspiration really came through.

Appetizer: Duck Tart - Confit duck, puff pastry, orange curd, coffee cherry butter, red licorice mole, olive caramel.

Main Course:

Venison - chickpea feta filo clutch, olive tepenade, walnut mint relish, duck fat pearl onions, snap peas, walnut muhammara, apricot chutney, harissa cranberries.

Porcini Chicken Breast - smoked corn purée, chorizo spiced fingerling potatoes, poblano pepita sauce, bacon, cremini mushrooms, snap peas, recado rojo vinaigrette, arugula, queso fresco, tortilla crunch.

Dessert: THIS WAS PERFECTION. Heirloom Polenta Cake - roasted peaches, cornmeal streusel, peach caramel sauce, fennel ice cream.

We can’t wait to dine here again. It was truly a great start to my birthday week!

🛑 4 hours of sleep
🛑 4-hour flight delay
🛑 TSA lunchbox shakedown

I have every reason to lose my marbles, but constantly practicing with my tools to regulate my nervous system, regulates my stress levels. The act of practicing, makes me more resilient. It’s extremely difficult to heal, when you’re constantly in fight-or-flight.

👉🏼 Healing it’s just removing stress - it’s building the resilience to rise stronger through it.

🚶🏽‍♀️Lots and LOTS of walking for D.C. trip day #1! It was my only time to sight-see, and I haven’t been to D.C. since I was 9-years-old.

I can appreciate our history, these monuments and buildings a lot more now. 🙏🏼

Can’t wait to head to the Capitol on day #3!

🌸From one mother to all the mothers out there—today and every day, we see you.

The multitasking, the planning five steps ahead, the remembering-for-everyone, the invisible labor, the emotional lifting—none of it goes unnoticed.

You carry so much with such grace. You make the impossible seem routine. You don’t just hold it all together—you build the world your family walks through.

Here’s to your strength, your intuition, your forward-thinking magic. ✨

We celebrate you now and always.
