HOW I knew I had hormonal imbalance.

14 years ago I was wanting to crawl out of my skin. I couldn't stand being around myself and my sweet, new hubby thought I had tricked him because I was so different from when we first met.

I didn't know what was going on.

One month I was a normal, 19-year-old, just fell in love young woman.

2 months later I was 30 pounds heavier (and gaining 10 pounds a month), a hormonal dragon, anxiety, and depression were becoming an old friend to me, and breathing some days felt too much due to the extreme exhaustion.

It took me over 10 doctors, multiple blood tests, misdiagnoses, and ultimately me becoming my own advocate and coming alongside a doctor who was willing to actually walk with me and not just prescribe me Wellbutrin or metformin and hope in 6 months everything is better.

I talk more in-depth in this youtube and dive deep into my wellness toolbox with what has ACTUALLY helped me find sustainable hormone health and where I can thrive as a woman and use my hormones as my superpower, not my curse in my signature HOPE + HORMONE COURSE.

The secret behind... staying on a wellness journey when you don't see the fruit!

After 14 years of trying it all to survive as a woman with hormonal imbalance - I have found the secret when you can white-knuckle your way to weight loss and your JOY is being stolen. How do you stand in the "in-between" WELL?

acne can be a symptom of stress..

TODAY we are going to be talking about hormones and stress and how that all intertwines with our body and then how our body kind of communicates that with ourselves like if I have a hormone imbalance it can translate a completely different way for me than it does you.

about me.

So I was 17 when I was in a parasailing accident that left a huge gash in my forehead. I don’t remember the initial impact but the damage was intense.

wIthin a month of my accident I gained 30 pounds (where weight gain had never ever been an issue for me).

I remember being able to zip a pair of jeans easily at the beginning of the month and by the end I couldn’t even get them up.. nothing had changed, except my head injury.

My body after about a year normalized itself.. the weight finally dropped off and I seemed back to normal…

Until I got engaged and started birth control.

I took birth control for 3 months total and it's 3 months I wished I could take back.

Unknowingly I triggered my head injury, I put a toxic, heavy load on my pituitary gland, adrenals and liver.

It took me years to realize what the root was. That's the thing, its not always just one thing.. it's a building effect.

Between my head injury, birth control, toxic beauty and household products I was using all the time, my body chose to shut down.

For me that looked like:

Extreme weight gain (with nothing in my habits changing).

Depression that got worse with each year.

Anxiety that made going out in public an overwhelming chore.

I was a constant PMSing dragon.

I wanted to crawl out of my skin.

Brain fog.

Low sex drive.

Extreme hunger + exhaustion where breathing felt too much.

I literally had every symptom of menopause except I still had my period at the age of 20, the doctors were baffled at what was going on.

To say the first few years of our marriage were rough is an understatement. My husband felt like I tricked him into marrying him because I was that different.

Thankfully I have found the root causes, I have found my hormone toolbox and I actually like being around me!

I am so on fire to educate so you don’t have to have as many wasted years as I.
