✨ 𝗩𝗮𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲 (𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻) ✨

From today, 𝟏𝟐/𝟏𝟗 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐉𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟓𝐭𝐡, I’ll still be open but will be stepping into a 𝑠𝑙𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟, 𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙 𝑠𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑜𝑛.

What that means:
• Responses may be a bit slower than usual
• 𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐛𝐞 𝐚𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 - 𝐦𝐲 𝟐𝟒-𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬
• Current appointments will be continued as scehduled
• New appointment bookings are limited during this time

I’m being very intentional about this time. Working full-time, being a mom to busy kids, and running two businesses is no joke—and just like I tell my patients, self-care is not optional, it’s foundational to your health. Rest, presence, and boundaries are part of healing too.

This is your reminder that prioritizing your nervous system, your family, and yourself isn’t selfish—it’s necessary. 💛

✨ 𝐋𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝:
My January schedule is fully open for those who are ready to finally take control of their health goals in 2026. If you’ve been waiting for the “right time,” this is it.

I’ll also be running a 𝑷𝒂𝒍𝒆𝒐𝑪𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒆 𝑫𝒆𝒕𝒐𝒙 at the beginning of the year, which is a powerful way to reset, reduce inflammation, support gut and liver health, and jumpstart sustainable habits after the holidays. This is one of my favorite ways to help patients start the year feeling clear, energized, and motivated. If you want to do this program along with me, comment DETOX below for more information!

Thank you for your patience and continued trust. I can’t wait to reconnect refreshed and ready to support you 🤍

Hope for your health—always.

Your anxiety isn’t just in your head.
And it’s not a character flaw.

Most standard labs are designed to catch disease — not dysregulation.

They don’t show:
• a nervous system stuck in survival mode
• inflammation quietly irritating the brain
• blood sugar swings stressing your adrenals
• nutrient depletion from chronic stress
• gut imbalances sending signals straight to your brain

So when you’re told “everything looks normal” but you still feel on edge, wired, exhausted, or overwhelmed… that makes sense.

Anxiety is often a signal, not the problem itself.

And when we slow down and actually look at the whole picture — hormones, gut health, nutrient status, inflammation, stress patterns — that’s when things start to change.

You’re not broken.
Your body is asking for support.

This is exactly how I approach anxiety at North Star Functional Health.
There is hope for your health. ✨

The holidays are coming — and I know for so many women that means ✨more everything✨
More gatherings.
More sugar.
More stress.
Less sleep.
Less routine.

If your body already feels like it’s barely keeping up, this season can be the tipping point.

I have a few last appointments this week — not to add another thing to your plate, but to help you go into the holidays feeling more supported, more clear, and less depleted.

Sometimes one conversation, one plan, one shift is enough to change how the next few months feel.

✨ Hope for your health doesn’t have to wait until January. ✨

Message me or grab a clarity call if you’ve been thinking about it. 🤍

You know what I hear all the time?

“I told my provider something felt off and they shrugged.”
“I was told it’s just getting older.”
“I was given a prescription but no explanation.”
“I’ve been dismissed so many times I stopped asking.”

If this is you… you’re not dramatic. You’re not imagining things. You’re not “too much.”

You’re just finally ready for answers.

Functional medicine is the bridge between “nothing’s wrong” and “I don’t feel well.”
It finds the why — whether that’s your gut, inflammation, hormones, nutrients, stress load, or a combo of all the above.

And once you understand the why?
Everything changes.

If you want care that takes you seriously and gives you a plan that actually fits your life, I’d love to meet you.
💬 Let’s start connecting the dots and on the path to healing.

Real talk on parasite cleanses…

I just finished my second parasite cleanse, and I want to be honest about my experience. I kept waiting for a big “aha” moment… but it never really came.

For me personally, this wasn’t something that felt transformative or necessary for my body right now — and that’s okay. Not everything works the same way for everyone, and I think it’s important to be transparent about that.

This was a different experience than my Paleocleanse liver detox last year, where I felt clear improvements by days 4–5 and felt amazing by the end of 2 weeks. That one gave me:
✨ more energy
✨ better sleep
✨ less bloating + improved digestion
✨ less joint pain (totally unexpected!)
✨ and a 6 lb weight loss

That detox was a game changer for me, so I’ll definitely be doing that one again after the first of the year.

Let’s talk about sugar and your child’s immune system…
because this part nobody tells parents.

When your kid eats sugar, their immune system actually slows down.
Like… literally gets distracted.

For about 4–6 hours after a sugary snack,
their white blood cells —
the little ‘germ fighters’ —
can’t do their job as well.

So what does that look like?
More runny noses.
More coughs.
More ‘why are we sick again?!’
Longer recovery times.

And no — this doesn’t mean sugar is evil.
It just means their body has to work harder
every time they spike and crash.

Kids already have tiny immune systems
trying to keep up with school germs, sleep schedules, and life.
Sugar just throws extra chaos into the mix.

Want to support their immunity?
Start with blood sugar balance:
• more protein with snacks
• pair carbs with fiber
• go easy on sugary drinks
• add fruit instead of candy
• whole food first, treats second

Balanced blood sugar =
calmer moods
better immunity
less sickness
and a kid who actually feels good. 💙
