I’m a hormone + MTHFR focused wellness coach helping women support their bodies, lead with integrity, and build something meaningful — without hustle or burnout. I lead the top team in Michigan in my company. I love doing business with women like me, leading their homes in health + wellness and aren’t afraid to put in the work to put money in their families accounts.

I remember sitting there, being told everything looked “normal.”

And yet, I didn’t feel normal.
Not even close.

I felt off in a way I couldn’t fully explain.

Low energy.
Subtle shifts in mood.
A disconnect between what I was being told… and what I was experiencing in my body.

At the time, I didn’t have the language for it.
And I didn’t know what questions to ask.

Which, if I’m honest, is where most women find themselves.

The Moment That Changed Everything

It wasn’t a major event that led me to answers.

It was a simple question from a friend:

“Have you ever had your thyroid checked?”

And the truth was… I didn’t know.

Like many women, I had gone through routine appointments without ever fully understanding what was being tested, or why it mattered.

So I decided to look into it.

What My Labs Actually Showed

When I finally reviewed my labs more closely, it became clear that something was off.

My:

TSH was elevated
T4 was outside of an optimal range

Individually, these numbers may not have raised concern in a standard setting.

But together, they told a different story.

This is where I began to understand something that has since shaped the way I approach health entirely:

Normal is not the same as optimal.

“Normal” is often based on broad population averages.
But optimal is where your body actually functions well.

And I knew I was not functioning at my best.

Shifting from Symptom Management to Root Support

Instead of looking for a quick fix, I began focusing on supporting my body at the root level.

This looked like:

Removing key inflammatory triggers (going fully gluten free)
Supporting my body’s natural detoxification pathways
Prioritizing nutrient-dense, supportive foods
Incorporating targeted supplementation
Managing stress more intentionally
Monitoring my labs consistently every 3–6 months

This wasn’t about doing everything perfectly.

It was about creating consistency in the areas that mattered most.

What I Want to Be Clear About

I didn’t “fix” my thyroid.

I learned how to support it.

And that distinction matters.

Because your body is not static.
It responds to your environment, your nutrition, your stress, and your daily habits.

Which means your health requires ongoing awareness, not a one-time solution.

Where I Am Now

Today, my thyroid markers are within a healthy range.

But more importantly:

I feel like myself again.

And I continue to monitor my labs regularly, because I understand how quickly things can shift when the body is not being supported properly.
