Debra came to me frustrated and exhausted. Every new diagnosis seemed to come with another list of foods to cut, leaving her nutrient deficient, her gut struggling, and her heart and bones at risk. Restriction alone wasn’t addressing the underlying problem.⁠

Together, we focused on supporting her body’s metabolic function and biology to get to the root cause of her heart, bone, kidney stone, and gut challenges. ⁠

True targeted science based nutrition isn’t just about removing foods, it’s about giving your body what it needs in the right portion and pairings for it to function, heal, and thrive. ⁠

*And if foods need to be eliminated/restricted due to intolerances/preferences/etc, the foods the person does eat, needs to be carefully planned to ensure nutrient adequacy.⁠

👉🏼 Read through the carousel to see her journey. If you’re looking for personalized, science-based, targeted nutrition that looks at the whole picture, let’s chat. Only 4 spots left for 2025! ⁠

….And you can do something about it!!

I recently met a new client whose story is far too common.

She’d had migraines for over 20 years, but no one ever mentioned that they could be connected to high blood pressure - a problem that can be measured and easily addressed - so she ignored it, not realizing the silent damage it can cause. It wasn’t until she ended up in the ER with a life-threatening tear in her main artery leaving the heart (an aortic root dissection) that she learned about the connection. She’s lucky to be alive.

And she’s not alone.

I’ve spent the last 14 years as a cardiovascular dietitian helping people spot many signs of heart problems that often go unnoticed until something serious happens.

Heart disease doesn’t start with chest pain. It begins quietly, years earlier, with subtle signals your body gives you when your heart and blood vessels need support.

These early signals are often linked to:
💔 Poor blood flow: brain fog, kidney issues, low energy, erectile dysfunction
🔥 Inflammation: gum disease, diverticulosis, psoriasis, autoimmune conditions
💧 Heart strain or fluid buildup: swelling, bloating, shortness of breath

The good news? Up to 80–90% of heart disease can be prevented. By recognizing these signs and supporting your heart with the right nutrition and lifestyle, you can actually change your heart’s future.

This is true whether you’re managing a new diagnosis or have been living with heart issues for years. Nutrition should always play a role in your heart health journey.

That’s why my mission is to help you understand these signs and take practical, science-based steps to support your heart, before small issues turn into serious problems.

This past Sunday, I volunteered as the timekeeper at my son’s swim meet. For anyone who has done this, you know it is not for the faint of heart. Six hours, fifty-two events, the buzzer going off every minute. Kids asking questions, goggles breaking, timers needing a reset. I was completely absorbed in making sure everything ran smoothly and helping the kids touch the wall at just the right moment. I take my responsibilities seriously, whether I am supporting kids at a meet or someone’s heart health in my private practice.

Somewhere in the middle of all that, I realized something surprising. I had not looked at my phone once. No emails, no messages, no notifications. Six hours completely disconnected. That is a long time for me. My clients know I make myself available to them and try to respond as quickly as I can.

Despite the brain power it takes to do this job, keeping track of times, events, and everything happening at once, it was a joyful kind of focus. Not just seeing my son crush it in the water, but also being fully engaged in the moment.

👉🏼 It also brought me back to why I do what I do as a cardiovascular dietitian. Heart health is not only about cardiac imaging, labs, and numbers. It is about the environment we create around ourselves.

⭐️ Joy, calm, connection, and taking time for ourselves lower stress hormones, support healthy blood vessels, and nurture the heart in ways a lab test cannot measure.

❤️ With the holiday season upon us, it is easy to get swept up in to-do lists, shopping, and endless obligations. That day reminded me that rest, play, and presence are not optional. They are vital to prevention.

⭐️ So here is your gentle holiday reminder. Step back, disconnect once in a while, and make time for the people, hobbies, and moments that make your heart beat stronger.

P.S. I shared a cozy fall recipe with my email list today. Comment HEART to get the link to join my email list for heart disease prevention tips delivered straight to your inbox every Tuesday.

Over the past 14 years as a cardiovascular dietitian, I’ve helped thousands of people make life-changing shifts in their heart health. ❤️⁠

That’s my promise.⁠
�I’ll show up for you — but I can’t do it all for you. That part’s on you.⁠

Words are powerful. 💬
Especially when they come from someone in a white coat.

A single sentence can shape an entire health journey:
“It’s just your genetics.”
“You’ll be on medication for life.”
“Your diet won’t make a difference.”

If you let them, those words can stick and become your reality.

But just because a doctor tells you a story, doesn’t mean you have to believe it.

This is exactly what one of my clients was told. She didn’t accept it—and when we worked together, her doctor actually thought she had taken the statin he prescribed. That’s how powerful nutrition can be. 💪❤️

👉🏼 Listen to the reel for more of her story.

Here’s what you need to know: you are not doomed by your genetics, and you are not limited by a 7-minute appointment.

👉🏼 You are the author of your health story.

⭐️ If your story has been shaped by fear, confusion, or dismissal—I’d love to help you change that.

After 14+ years in this work, I can say without hesitation: nutrition can be life-changing. I’ve seen results even seasoned doctors didn’t think were possible.

❤️ You get to decide what happens next.

If you’re ready to write a new chapter in your heart health story, my Optimize program starts in 2 days on Friday, October 31st!

This is the last cohort of 2025 and only 3 spots left. Comment OPTIMIZE to grab your spot! ✨

A heart-healthy diet isn’t about restriction—it’s about fitting it into your lifestyle in a way that’s enjoyable, sustainable, and drives long-term results. ❤️

It pains me when I hear people say they don’t eat with friends anymore because of their diet.

Social connection is a hallmark of longevity, and your nutrition should enhance your lifestyle, not take it away.

I have high lipoprotein(a), and I follow a heart-healthy diet because of my genetically increased risk. I focus on what I can eat and add, not what I can’t, and I want to teach you the same approach—how to navigate every meal, restaurant, and social setting with confidence.

This way of eating also gives me the energy and focus I need to thrive as a mom of four, wife, daughter, auntie, friend, and cardiovascular dietitian to so many amazing people who make me show up every day with a smile and a grateful heart.

In Optimize, there’s no gatekeeping. I’m an open book, and I’ll show you how to build a diet that fits your life, your preferences, and your joy.

There are only 3 spots left for the October 2025 cohort.

Let’s walk into 2026 and the holidays prepared and confident—because holidays happen every year, and waiting for the “perfect time” doesn’t work.

💬 Join me today! Comment “OPTIMIZE” to secure your spot.

📩 Questions? Reach out—I want you to feel empowered and supported every step of the way.

That moment when you realize you can take a proactive approach to your heart health instead of worrying or waiting for problems to show up. 💓

Most programs leave you on your own—people don’t finish them and don’t see results.

Optimize is different. This is round #28, and the past participant success stories make me continue running it live. I run it live so you have direct access to me, a cardiovascular dietitian with 14+ years of experience, to get the results you deserve—without the guesswork.

Here’s what you get inside Optimize:
✅ 6 weeks of science-based guidance to truly understand heart disease and actionable strategies to mitigate risk at every step.
✅ Between-lecture support in a group program with others on similar heart-healthy journeys—ask questions and get answers from me in between sessions.
✅ Accountability and targeted nutrition strategies, focusing on 2–3 high-priority changes each week so small, manageable steps lead to real, long-term results.
✅ Access to me for your questions, guidance, and support throughout the program.
✅ Heart health advocacy: show up to your next doctor’s visit with confidence, better lab results, more stable blood pressure, and a clear plan to protect your heart.

So whether you have a strong family history of heart disease, a high calcium score, abnormal labs, and/or heart health on your mind - this is a safe and supportive place to improve your heart health and reduce your risk of health complications.

💡 Only 4 spots left in the last cohort of 2025—claim yours and finally replace fear and guesswork with confidence and action so you can live your best life in 2026. ❤️

I look forward to officially welcoming you into Optimize and supporting you on your heart health journey!

Did you know that not all HDL cholesterol is created equal? 🫀

In this reel, I share 3 things that you need to know about HDL; these details that can change how you think about your heart health.

⭐️ Understanding how HDL works is just the start, the real impact comes when you make it functional through science-based nutrition.

👉🏼 In Week 5 of Optimize, we dive deeper into making HDL functional and optimizing your entire atherogenic (another word for plaque forming) lipid profile using science-based nutrition strategies.

Each lecture includes:
* 10–15 minutes explaining what’s happening and why it matters
* 45 minutes focused on actionable steps with nutrition, because knowledge alone won’t reduce your risk—implementation is key.

If you want support on your heart health journey, type OPTIMIZE to enroll in my next 6 week heart optimization group program.

💡 October’s Optimize cohort starts October 31st—spots are very limited and filling up fast!

❤️ Save or send to your heart-health-minded friends or anyone ready to take control of their heart health!
