When it comes to life in general, but in my world the medical field, it’s so incredibly important to stand up for yourself and demand better.

I believe that most people who come into the medical world as a patient, they take the first diagnosis, opinion, etc. at face value and roll with it. They don’t ask enough questions, they don’t question the doctor or provider, and they don’t follow up with their own quick research. Read more>>

One of the most powerful pieces of advice I ever gave a client was simply: “You are doing better than you think you are.”It came during a session with an environmental justice organizer who was experiencing intense burnout. They felt like they were constantly dropping the ball, not responding fast enough, not doing enough and always falling short.

One of the most important pieces of advice I offer my clients is to trust themselves and their intuition when it comes to what they need to thrive. There are countless diets and wellness trends—keto, paleo, intermittent fasting—but if something doesn’t feel right or truly work for you, it’s not the right path. I guide my clients to tune in to their own bodies, preferences, and rhythms, and to let go of the pressure to follow one-size-fits-all plans. True wellness comes from understanding your unique needs and honoring them with confidence. That’s why I focus on personalized, individualized nutrition—because lasting change happens when it’s aligned with your unique needs, lifestyle, and what genuinely supports your well-being.

My best advice I ever gave a client I think was when they previously got taken advantage of by other contractors due to lack of research and trust. Over the years, I have head may discussions with customers who were taken advantage of , or did not receive quality work or craftsmanship. I believe they were able to benefit from me giving them some helpful resources and just a little advice on what to look for and what some red flags may be when choosing or hiring a company to do repairs at their home. The biggest, most common one we hear of is, ” The contractor never came back to finish”. Or even better, ” I gave them a deposit and they never showed back up”? Read more>>
