AIP Meatballs!


I made these meatballs for the Paleo Potluck I attended a few weeks ago at my CrossFit gym. I loved them, even my sister who usually does not imbibe in my “crazy healthy food” loved them too. I took that as the ultimate supremo sign of approval, if she likes them, anyone will like them! Use these […]

Fit vs. Healthy, Can you have one without the other?


Sunday was my birthday. Wahoo, a whopping 31 years old! As I was thinking about this milestone the other day, I found myself comparing. Comparing myself to this time last year. Not in terms of body shape or size, I know those are different for numerous reasons, and that’s ok. Because life. But I found myself comparing my […]

AIP and Me. Why I Started and My First 3 Months. I felt like crap everyday. I decided I had to do it. I needed to do it! I deserved better than this! Right? I didn’t want the weird, squirmy feelings going up and down my legs anymore. I didn’t want my legs to become tingly […]

Anti inflammatory Bone Broth (and why bone broth rocks)


This is the wonderful goodness that I create almost daily. When I don’t have it now, I get sad. It is amazingly comforting, and it has wonderful anti inflammatory benefits to boot! So why bone broth? Well, I’ll tell you! Bone broth is a nutrient bomb. It is made up of many things that our […]

Carob Pudding – ( AIP, Paleo)


Pudding. Something that I haven’t had for a long time. I’ve avoided pudding in general for ages because before now, it only existed to me in little plastic cups and who knows if any of it was actually real chocolate or real vanilla inside those little single serve containers. And plus, I had found myself […]

Workout Wednesday, Benefits of Leisure Walking, 3-9-16


I live in Boston. Somewhere that seems to get the short stick when it comes to summer every year. It finally gets warm in June or July, then starts to get chilly in September. 3 months? 3 months is all we get for enduring usually a really. crappy. winter. However, this year seems to be […]

It’s easy to outsource the understanding of our bodies to the internet and “other”

I mean I get it, I was once in an unpredictable body too- and it sucked. I didn’t understand what was happening and I would have loved for someone to say: here’s the key.

But what if… instead of looking outward for more info.. you went inward and gave yourself the information, and in doing so you helped to improve how your body feels and functions.. sounds kinda cool, right? 

I explain it all in my Slap it to Map it training.. comment SLAP and I’ll send it to you asap

Your body functioning better so you feel better in 3 minutes? 

It sounds like a stupid infomercial BS claim I know and I roll my eyes every time I type it, but.. it’s kinda true? 

Idk, I’ll let you be the final judge

It’s an easy exercise with a silly name, but it actually packs a punch and can really change how you feel. 

Imagine measurably more energy and feeling more stable and balanced- and even improving a few MS symptoms here and there too?🤷🏻‍♀️ 

Your possibilities are endless!

Take a time out for a literal minute.

It’s amazing what happens when you take the time to care for your body and nervous system.

Thankfully I haven’t heard any of these in a while.. maybe that means I’m getting my point across 🤷🏻‍♀️

But if you’re new here, I value holistic lifestyle medicine (snake oil 😂) but ALSO conventional medicine, I utilize it all after all. 

Yes, what we do as an individual matters for our health.
But so does the health systems we as individuals operate in.

Tomorrow is my MS-aversary, 16 years of having this disease. my newly diagnosed 24 year old self would be pretty shocked that I’m 40 (like in general lol) and also not in a wheelchair.

Here’s to many more years defying what I initially thought to be true about MS.

Comin with me? Hope so.

I’ve tripped a few times in the last few weeks.. nothing crazy, but I noticed.

And I noticed my thoughts… is this a “THING”??

Oh the constant wonderings of an MSer… 
is this a regular life occurrence?
Or is this a new symptom? 😂😂

When was the last time you had this thought process??

When you’re living with MS, it’s not that you don’t want to feel better…

It’s just that life keeps interrupting the plan.
Stress, symptoms, fatigue — they throw you off track.

That’s where support, structure, and accountability change everything.

That’s exactly what my membership is for.
✔️ Evidence-based strategies for MS
✔️ Real community and support
✔️ Gentle consistency that actually works

Only the waitlist is getting access as a Founding Member.

But seriously.. this isn’t too far off 😂

Life handed me a lemon that was a MS diagnosis at 24. 
Life handed me a lemon that was multiple relapses and MS progression by 30.

Then I snatched those lemons, made some healing lemonade, and feel night and day different than I did 10 years ago when my symptoms were at their worst. 

I could do it, my clients are doing it, I know you can too.

That’s why I’m so passionate about doing what I do. I know it’s possible for you to feel better in your body and be able to do the things you want to do. 

Like go for a walk or hike with your spouse, say yes to a spontaneous night out with friends or get up and down off the floor playing with your kids. 

That’s why I want to invite you to the waitlist for what I have coming.

Think, somewhere to go online, where you can: connect with others who have MS, get questions about MS answered, get tools that can help your symptoms, support & accountability to help with actually doing those things.
