Your digestion, hormones and metabolism are all a direct reflection of your mineral levels.

When we look under the hood, so to speak, at your mineral status; you’re able to finally understand why symptoms are happening + what your body needs in order to fix it.

No more guessing.
No more throwing spaghetti at the wall.

Together, we’ll use a personalized food first mineral plan to rebuild from the inside out.

DM me to begin the conversation about working 1:1 together.

Think of your metabolism like an engine that powers every process in your body.

When it's strong & supported, everything runs smoothly.

Bloating is often a sign that the system is underpowered.

Not that a food is "bad".

Here at SGN, I help women like you, reduce their bloating by rebuilding digestion & metabolic function. Not by restricting more.

I just sent out the following newsletter to my email community. Perhaps you could benefit from the same encouragement today:

As we begin a new year, I think it's very natural to feel drawn to creating goals and/or intentions for ourselves. For what we aspire to accomplish. For the type of person we hope to become.

You've probably already started this process, just like I have. But, I hope you will read this email and back up just a tad bit first.

First, I want you to spend some time reflecting back on the past year. Now, like so many others, it really was a trying year! I feel this so deep in my core. At the same time, as I sat down to complete this process last night for myself. I found sooo many things, so many good things that happened in 2025. Even the tiniest of things.

Curl up on the couch, have a favorite beverage close by, and get a notebook and pen. And, start writing.

​👉What are you proud of for accomplishing?
👉What good things happened?
👉Where did you make progress?
👉Not give up?
👉What surprised you?

After you feel like you've written it all out. Ask yourself, "what else?" And, keep writing! Do it until you cannot possibly think of anything else.

Read through that list and I hope you are in awe of all that you did. I want you to keep that list close by and visit it often throughout this new year. Remind yourself of what you are capable of.

Choose to be proud of yourself for showing up.

Proud of staying the course, even when the results aren't there yet.

Do not wait until you hit your goals to be proud of yourself! Be proud all along the way!

Now that you've done this part. Here's what else I want you to know:

We must believe that we are capable of being the person that achieves whatever goal(s) you're setting for 2026.

You have to embrace this new identity.

​

You are capable of eliminating chronic bloat & digestive discomfort for good.

You are capable of having a healthy relationship with food and your body.

You are capable of decreasing inflammation in your body and losing those 15 pounds.

You are capable of ___________________.

I know this more than anyone else, if you don't fix your mindset and really believe you are worthy and capable of your goals...you'll stay stuck.

​

Lastly, I know your motivation is at an all time high right now. You are so ready to get started and crush it!

​

This is so great! I am here to cheer you on.

But, I'm also going to encourage you to take a breath. Go slow. Sort of titrate your steps, if you will. Baby steps.

After a little while, that motivation just naturally begins to disappear. Our brains love nothing more than going back to what's familiar and feels safe.

By starting small and building upon your habits; this is exactly what sets you up for success long term. This is why my clients are able to see more + better results. It's sustainable. It just is.

There's no timeline to rush to complete. Allow yourself to just be in the moment. You didn't get to where you are overnight, so we can't expect to heal our bodies (or accomplish any other goal) in two months. Especially if we want long lasting transformation.

​

Whatever you wish for in 2026, I know you're capable of it. We all are. And just know, I'll be cheering for you!

Oh 2025, what a rollercoaster of a ride you were!

In the midst of some utterly painful moments; there was plenty of beauty, too. I guess that's part of life, huh??

I'm thankful for learning how to lean into the fear and never waiting for life to feel "settled" in order to move forward.

There's never going to be a perfect time for anything.
We get this one chance.
Life keeps moving. With or without our permission.

When you're ready, I'm here. We start now.

During a session last week, my client truly felt surprised that she felt pretty darn good lately, despite what she recalls as "not taking care of herself."

And yes, I quickly pointed out that while it doesn't feel like a lot. She really is continuing to focus on her core habits.

Because more is not often better.

At the same time, the work we do together is never designed to *only* work when life is going perfectly.

That's never gonna happen, we know that.

If your health and nutrition plan requires you to follow it perfectly, every single day. I'm sorry, it won't be long before you're starting all over again.

But knowing what core things you need to focus on for your personal body...that's exactly how it should be!

If I had a dollar for every client that was told their labs look normal

"They keep telling me l'm healthy, but I know something is wrong."

👆this one, too.

Your body doesn't respond to food based on ONLY labels or macros.

There's a whole other symphony going on in there. One that all works together. And so, it's important that we support it all.

This is the framework behind my 1:1 work:

Digestion 👉 Metabolize 👉 Release

January start spots are filling up for women who want depth, answers and a personalized plan based on their needs.

It’s not the carbs. It’s the environment those carbs are going into. A metabolism that’s depleted of key nutrients necessary to utilize them efficiently.

I help you stop the restriction and start repairing the system underneath:

👉rebuild your mineral reserves
👉support digestion so that you’re actually breaking down your food and absorbing nutrients
👉Make sure you’re eating enough (not less)
👉Balance your meals according to your data needs
👉Reduce inflammation
👉Focus on metabolic repair…not punishment

When we correct the problem through a more functional and whole body lens; beautiful things can happen!

It’s not the carbs that are the problem.

Now enrolling for 1:1 spots, mineral testing included. Schedule a free discovery call or DM me to begin a no pressure conversation.

We all love a good dinner out!
Just not how our stomach feels after, if you struggle with bloating or other digestive distress.

I don’t want you to have to avoid restaurants.
A digestion focused framework that helps your body feel safe while you eat should absolutely be in your tool kit, though.

I made a 10-minute training for you, where I walk you through the exact 3 steps I teach my clients. The same framework that helps them enjoy good food without the aftermath.

No restrictions 🚫
No complicated rules 🙅🏻‍♀️

Just simple, supportive steps to help your digestion stay calm before, during & after eating out.

Comment (or DM me) BLOAT and I’ll send the free training straight to you.

This is the support you’ve been missing 🤝

Here’s what nobody sees when you deal with bloating…the social anxiety that comes along with it.

You start worrying on Friday morning.
You scan the menu 3x before dinner.
You fear the aftermath more than the meal itself.
You pretend you’re not ‘that hungry’ just to avoid the bloat spiral.

This is your body trying to keep you safe from that all familiar pattern of discomfort.

But, the good news is you can absolutely re-train this pattern.

Once you begin to support your digestion as a whole instead of cherry picking symptoms; relief is much closer than you know!

DM me “Bloat” and I’ll send you a link to schedule a free consultation with me.
