I want to word this gently because it’s a topic that hits deep: the moment you associate yourself with your diagnosis, it becomes a permanent part of you.

When you say ‘my MS,’ ‘my colitis,’ or ‘my monthly migraines,’ it becomes part of who you are, and it won’t detach until YOU release the label.

No medication, supplement, diet, or healing work can remove it if you’re not ready to release the identity in your mind. Both must shift.

Especially if you’ve been dealing with a health issue for a long time, it can feel scary to think about one day not having it! Because you’ve revolved your life, your routines, and your thoughts around it.

What will it be like when it’s gone? What will you do instead of catering to it, and what will fill your thoughts when the symptoms and pain are gone?

These are real conversations.

When, and only when, my clients are ready to go here, we do, because it’s crucial. There’s often tears, but the tears are a release. A surrender. They’re ready to put down their sword and actually move on.

I only take on clients who are ready to do this deeper work. If they’re attached to being attached to their label, I can’t help them, because I know this.

We change the conversation in their mind to trusting that their body is now well and filling it with positive, wellness-focused thoughts, not “what if I flare again?” or “what if it keeps coming back?”

👆🏻 these exact thoughts WILL make it come back and flare again (whether they make you give in to food temptations, over-exerting yourself, etc.)

I model what a well person’s life looks like, because often my clients don’t know. I show them how I rest, eat, travel, all of it. This helps them believe it’s possible. They lean on me until they see it in themselves, and we continue working on mindset and body until the diagnosis no longer defines them.

If you need a mirror to show you what’s possible, someone who believes in you until you can, and guidance addressing both mind and body in lockstep, reach out. We have a few spots left in my program where we do this work. Send me a message

If you’ve been given 1…3…5…diagnoses, please read this:

You’ve likely been told each diagnosis is separate, each “its own problem.” That’s is a dangerous misconception we’ve been taught.

Often, it’s ONE root imbalance showing up in different ways. It might start as a thyroid imbalance, then become endometriosis, and later becomes c@nc3r. But they all can come from the same root.

Think of it like a hose sitting on a sharp rock. It gets a hole, so you patch it, then another pops up. Until you remove the rock (the root) you’re never actually fixing it.

This is why I my approach begins by finding the rock (aka the root), removing it, and then repairing the hose (aka your body).

This is how real recovery is done.

In my core program Vibrant Foundations: The Immersion, we go DEEP to uncover these exact root imbalances, restore your body’s terrain, and create real, lasting change. From there, symptoms simply fade, your energy returns, and your body finally feels like it’s yours again.

We need to shift how we view diagnoses and understand what they really are.

✨ Ready to stop accumulating diagnoses and start addressing the root? I have a few December-only bonuses when you join (2 extra 1:1 calls with me). Join us inside Vibrant Foundations: The Immersion: this is the real deal. See the first comment below for the link to learn more and apply.

I just sat down with a client last week who told me she was dreading Christmas dinner.

Not because of family drama (though let's be honest, the holidays can bring that too)...she was dreading the food.

"I know I'm going to eat something that sets me off," she said. "I'll feel terrible for days, but I won't even know what did it. Then I'll spend January trying to recover from the holidays instead of enjoying them."

If you've been there, you know exactly what she's talking about...

The bloating that shows up two days after the meal. The joint pain. The brain fog. The fatigue that lingers for a week.

And the worst part? You have no idea which food caused it.
Here's the thing most people don't realize about food sensitivities: they cause delayed immune responses.

You might eat something on Monday and not feel the consequences until Wednesday or Thursday. By then, you've eaten 10 other foods, and you're left wondering which one was the culprit.

But you don't have to keep guessing.

I just wrote a detailed post breaking down exactly how food sensitivities work, why you might be reacting to "healthy" foods, and what you can do about it before the holiday meals hit.

I explain the science behind IgG and IgA testing (it's actually fascinating when you understand what your body's trying to tell you), common trigger foods hiding in traditional holiday dishes, and practical strategies even if you can't get tested before Christmas.

Because here's what I want for you: to actually enjoy the holidays. To eat confidently. To stop spending January recovering from December.

You deserve to know what YOUR body needs. Not a generic diet. Not guesswork. Real data about what's driving your inflammation.

https://www.sagebrushwellness.com/blog/food-sensitivities-christmas-autoimmune-triggers

Whether you ever work with me or not, this information can change how you experience this season. And if after reading it you think, "I'm ready to finally get answers"...just send me a message.

My doors are always open.

You don't have to dread another holiday meal 💚

One of my team members recently asked me: what was it like for your boys when you were deeply sick with MS? My oldest boy Layne came to my mind, and my eyes welled up with tears...

My sweet boy, not even a teenager at the time, had to grow up fast because he felt like he always had to take care of me. Making sure I was ok, do things around the house, go down the stairs, get out to the car.

He’d often choose not to do the things a little boy *should* be doing like playing sports with a friend or going on a sleepover, because he was afraid I’d need him. ((ugh here come my tears again 😢))

And all of my boys had to synchronize their life for me. They all could only do 1 sport at a time because I didn’t have enough energy to do more for them, and I often couldn't even be at the games.

Fast forward many years: Layne joined the army…and didn’t tell me. I found out when someone posted a picture of his enlistment. We’ve never talked about it, but I think he knew he had to get away and find his own life, but was afraid to say that to me.

I immediately understood why he had to do this…and I fully supported him.

Layne (and all of my boys) had to grow up so much faster than other kids their age because of my disability from MS. And it was BECAUSE of them that I did whatever it took to get better. I wanted them to go on to live a normal life, not worry about their mom, and know I’d be there when they graduated school, got married, had kids…

And I am here! I followed the voice inside me that said “this diagnosis is not me, there has to be a way out.” Hundreds of others have felt that same nudge (many of them with kids and family deeply impacted by their condition) and came to me to regain control of their health, and now it’s your turn:

⏰ The year is wrapping up FAST and I have just a few spots open inside Vibrant Foundations: The Immersion, now our core program at Sagebrush Wellness, where we do this work…together. Step into 2026 knowing you’ll never be the disability to your family again, and just how proud you’ll make them (and yourself) that you did the work to get better.

I’ll be here for you every step of the way. Just send me a message and let’s see what we can do together.

This is the season of “let’s just get through the holidays.” 🎄

So many to-dos, extra expenses, and overwhelm. I get it…truly.

And if your health has also been waving red flags at you (joint pain, brain fog, gut issues, rashes, inflammation, sleepless nights, insane fatigue), here’s the question to sit with:

⚠️ Why does your precious body keep getting pushed to the bottom of the list?
Your symptoms are your body’s way of asking for help in the only way it knows how. And when you hit “mute” on them now, they don’t disappear until January. They layer…and they get louder 📣 📣

And here’s the part that’s hardest to say 💔:

Your family feels it too. Your partner, your kids, the people who love you most. They don’t want you pushing yourself through another holiday season in survival mode. They want you well, present, pain-free, happy.

Taking care of your health ISN’T selfish, it’s the foundation that lets you show up for you AND for everyone else.

That’s why, for December only, I added two private bonuses to make starting now inside my Immersion process EASIER, not harder:

✨ BONUS #1: 1:1 Live Lab Review with me (normally $750)
No guessing, no stressing over what your body’s saying. We go through your results and custom protocol…together.

✨ BONUS #2: 1:1 Functional Health Assessment Call (normally $750)

We map your entire health story, root causes, and exact starting path inside Vibrant Foundations: The Immersion so you waste ZERO time wondering what to do first.

That’s $1,500 in private support included for free…this month only.

Spots are limited to keep this program high-touch, and once December closes, so do these bonuses.

If your body’s been asking for help… this is your sign to stop putting it on hold. I’ll drop the link in the comments.

🌿PSA: sometimes your symptoms aren’t some big mysterious disease…

…often it’s reactions from the foods your body is quietly fighting every single day.

When a client comes to me with any autoimmune activity, one of the FIRST places we look is food sensitivities (the test I run is incredible 😍).

I’ve watched long-term eczema disappear, joint pain melt, and people realize it wasn’t MS or psoriasis at all (their body was just reacting to foods they thought were perfectly healthy!)

We’re talking foods like: broccoli, oats, avocado, blackberries, turmeric. Even fillers hiding in supplements you think are helping you! 😯

And I’m not talking about peanut-type allergies, I’m talking deep immune reactivity (IgA & IgG responses) that create inflammation for 6–8 days after a SINGLE exposure. The symptoms linger for so long you forgot what you even ate!

One of my clients was using stevia every morning, totally unaware her body was inflamed from it every single day. Once she removed it, her improvement was almost unbelievable.

Here’s what sets this test apart:

It breaks down EXACTLY how your immune system is responding: what’s high, what’s moderate, what’s truly safe… and where these foods hide in places you’d never expect. It’s nearly 40 pages of data and explanation.

And the awesome thing is, you don’t have to be inside a full program with me to run it. You order the test directly through me, but the results are sent right to you. Then if you want help interpreting them, I’m here.

I’ll drop the link to order the test below. And if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out — I’m unconditionally here for you 🌿

She was told she had candida…she didn’t.
She was told she had ulcers…she didn’t.
She was told she had MS…she didn’t.
She was told she had fibromyalgia…she didn’t.

The list of misdiagnoses I see my clients come in with is insanely long (it’s medical malpractice at its finest). But it fires me up because every person who comes to me with one deep-down believes it’s NOT true and that there’s gotta be another answer (and there is!).

So the client who was told she had candida? It was actually a virus in her stomach lining. We found it, got rid of it, and her “candida symptoms” vanished.

And the client told she had MS actually had SIBO, parasites, and an off-the-charts Epstein-barr virus in her brain (!!) causing her mobility issues. We found the culprits, addressed them, and no more “MS symptoms”.

What’s most infuriating is that a diagnoses labels them with something they don’t have…and on top of it, they’re told they’ll have it the rest of their life. It’s like getting super-glued to the WRONG thing 🤬

Instead, you need to figure out WHY your body has these symptoms (because symptoms are just your body’s way of talking to you)...and then address the why. It’s actually incredibly simple.

This is what I do: simplify recovery.

As a double board certified Applied Functional Medicine Practitioner, I specialize in complex autoimmune cases, yet I actually don’t see them as complex! It’s really really simple when you know how it happens and how to unravel it.

I work with individuals both locally and around the world. And really, I’m just like you. I chose to find the answers and another path. I’m not special, I just refused to accept the MS diagnosis I was given and found the real answers.

You can too. 📅 My calendar is filling up for the rest of the year and into 2026 already, so please reach out TODAY if any of this resonates, there are so many ways to get into my world right now.

⚠️ I'm doing something SPECIAL for the entire month of December:

This time of year is so busy. So much to do and to wrap up before the holidays. And you're working with budgets.

1️⃣ That's why EVERYONE who enrolls in Vibrant Foundations: The Immersion (now our core program at Sagebrush Wellness) will get a BONUS 1:1 lab review session (normally a $750 add-on) so you DON’T have to take the time to watch the lab interpretation videos or question if you got it right.

I will personally review your results live with you, go through your protocol, and answer every question you have.

And it’s so darn hard to manage your health this time of year, discern what actually matters to do, and still have some fun…

2️⃣ So I'm ALSO adding in a BONUS 1:1 Functional Health Assessment call with me (normally a $750 call), where I will take a look at your entire health history, help you map the story, the root causes, and the exact path for you inside this program, so you can hit the ground running, take less time watching videos, more time implementing and living your life, and know exactly how to balance your health with the holidays this year.

I normally don't have these calls have available at all as my schedule doesn't often permit it, and it’s a total of $1500 in additional cost even when I do open them up. This year in honor of the massive expansion we've had here at Sagebrush Wellness, and feeling more fired up than ever to help as many people as possible overcome autoimmunity, I'm opening up the spaces and they are completely FREE when you join.

I like you won't be able to offer this again, so if there's ever a month to join us, NOW is it.

But we keep spots inside this program limited to maintain such high touch points. The program itself is offered at a fraction of the price of working with me 1:1 and there are also payment plans - I've truly made it accessible to anyone who is motivated enough to get to the root of their auto immunity.

Snag your spot inside this before all the spots are gone (and you can book your calls as soon as you’re in). I’ll drop the link below in the comments
