First off, let say it was a RELIEF to get the diagnosis.
To know something was wrong.
To know I wasn’t going crazy.

…and then, I quickly asked, “what’s next?”

Because getting the actual diagnosis does not make the course of treatment clear…

It does know make the prognosis understandable…

But it helps the logical mind formulate a path moving forward.

If I were to do things differently?
I would slow way down.
I would NOT do everything at once.
I would prioritize brain and nervous system health.
I would delete the naysayers and harmful accounts immediately.

…and I would lead with intuition rather than fear.

If you’re ready to RESET your brain and nervous system and begin supporting your body from a different approach, my RESET course is the perfect introduction to brain retraining. Learn more here: https://vital-side.com/pages/reset-7-day-course

Healing isn’t about becoming who you were before the stress, trauma, burnout, or illness.

It’s about learning how to carry your story without letting it carry you.
The version of you that survived deserved compassion.
The version of you emerging now deserves trust.

Growth can feel uncomfortable because your nervous system is learning that safety and change can exist together. And maybe that’s the real healing… not “going back,” but finally feeling safe enough to move forward. 🤍

If this resonates, share it with someone learning to meet themselves with softer eyes.

If you’re ready to start retraining your brain and nervous system, I created a free guide + video sharing my healing story to help you take the first step.

You can take 10+ supplements, follow every protocol perfectly, clean up your diet, remove toxins, and still feel stuck in symptoms.... maybe even worse.

Why?

If your nervous system is trapped in a chronic stress response, your body is still receiving the message that you are not safe.

When the brain perceives danger — whether from trauma, chronic illness, fear, pressure, or years of fighting symptoms — it shifts the body into survival mode.

In this state, the immune system becomes hypervigilant, inflammation increases, digestion slows, hormones become dysregulated, and the body can become more reactive and sensitive over time.

This is why so many people with autoimmune conditions end up exhausted from chasing the next supplement, diet, or protocol while their body stays stuck in a cycle of stress and inflammation.

Supplements can support healing.

But they cannot fully override a nervous system that is constantly sounding the alarm.

Real healing often happens when the body begins to feel safe enough to move out of fight-or-flight and back into regulation, repair, and rest.

Sometimes the missing piece isn’t more supplements. It’s calming the system that’s been stuck in survival for far too long.

It’s hard to put into words how I’ve been feeling lately.

I don’t think it hit me until 4 months post partum, but I felt a major shift coming. At first, I had so much energy, things felt pretty normal.

But at some point, I felt like slowing down. Waaay down.

I feel like physiologically, I needed it. A friend of mine told me that I was so used to going, moving, and creating.

… and this is the chapter of being still.

It’s still hard. But I am accepting it, I’m giving into it.

But it does make posting VERY hard. Sharing my life doesn’t feel like something I’m open to doing right now… and it seems like so much energy I can’t commit to.

But here are some samples of my life that feel authentic:

Photo 1: walks with my baby who is non-stop holding my hand these days, showing me things, so curious.

Photo 2: daily hugs and cuddles

Photo 3: book club at my home, celebrating 2 of my friends’ birthdays and sharing some good food

Photo 4: responding to an email after a work call with a health share program, wanting to promote Vital-Side. Hearing about how the man’s son used Rewire and went back to college symptom-free after living with POTS & 4 microclots for years.😭

Photo 5: a recent camping trip - these have been grounding and some of the best family time.

So, I want to say HI and I’n doing OK… and I would love to hear how you’re doing too. ♥️.

I used to think healing would be the moment everything finally disappeared.
The symptoms.
The fear.
The hypervigilance.
The exhaustion of trying to “fix” myself every second of every day.

But somewhere along the way, I realized healing was never meant to become my entire identity.

I survived being a sick kid.
I survived childhood abuse.
I survived Lyme disease and the years of fighting for answers while feeling trapped inside a body that wouldn’t cooperate.

And for a long time, my whole life revolved around surviving.

Tracking symptoms.
Researching protocols.
Trying to feel safe.
Trying to feel normal.

But this part of my life?
This part is different.

This part is called living.

It’s motherhood.
It’s laughing with my child.
It’s building dreams.
It’s making memories instead of constantly monitoring my body.
It’s waking up and thinking about life instead of illness.

Healing gave me my life back…
but I’m no longer centering my life around healing.

If you can relate and you’re ready to stop making healing your entire identity and start truly living again, head to the link and I’ll send you the information on what finally helped me move from years of surviving into actually living life again. 🤍

I used to think my story separated me.
Chronic illness. Trauma. A brain that works differently.

But the deeper I go, the more I see…
this is the human experience.

We all carry something.
We all navigate pain, healing, and becoming.

I’m not different.
I’m connected.

And maybe you are too.

Most people stay stuck because they keep identifying with the story.

If you’re done with that, it starts small—
finding safety first, then rewiring what you’ve been carrying. Are you ready to start?

I’m focused on the unlearning.

The quiet unraveling of everything I once thought I had to be.

No more beliefs that were never mine.
No more living inside expectations I didn’t choose.
No more endless “to-do’s” and “shoulds” running my life.

No more black and white thinking.
No more outsourcing my truth.
No more buying into narratives that disconnect me from myself.

This season isn’t about adding more.
It’s about stripping back.

Listening deeper.
Questioning gently.
Coming home to what actually feels true in my body.

Because the more I unlearn…
the more space I create for who I really am.

And that feels like freedom.

I used to tell a different story of healing.

I shared my journey with Lyme disease to inspire others — to let people know recovery was possible, and to help them see pieces of their own story in mine.

But I’m realizing our stories are always unfolding.

Yes, Lyme was part of my story. But it is not all of me.

I am learning to detach from the identity of “being in recovery.”

I am not just healing. I am growing, evolving, expanding.

And at the same time, I don’t have to become anything.

I can simply build a deeper relationship with balance.

A balance that allows me to hold all parts of myself — the medical provider, the speaker, the mother, the writer, the wife, the soul.

All of it belongs.

And through that balance, I can see through the fog and come home to myself.

I’ve spent most of my life trying to become someone…

More successful.
More healed.
More “together.”

Always reaching for a version of me that felt just out of reach.

But lately… I’m learning something different.

I’m learning to just be.

Not fixing.
Not forcing.
Not performing.

Just being in my body.
Being in this moment.
Being with what’s here—without rushing to change it.

And somehow, in the space where I stopped trying so hard…

I started feeling more like myself than ever before.

✨ Maybe you’re not someone you need to become.
✨ Maybe you’re someone you’re finally ready to come home to.

Where in your life are you ready to soften instead of strive?

I’m obsessed with the concept of alignment.

Not just in the big things…
but in the quiet, everyday choices.

Aligning my work.
My relationships.
My boundaries.
My energy.

Not with what looks right—
but with what feels true.

Because it’s less about what I’m doing…
and more about how I’m showing up while I do it.

Am I forcing or flowing?
Performing or being?
Proving or trusting?

Alignment, for me, looks like honesty.
It looks like listening to my body.
It looks like choosing differently—even when it doesn’t make sense to anyone else.

And the more I choose alignment…
the less I feel the need to chase anything outside of me.

✨ That's why I created my Release Meditation series. Tbh, I created it during a time that I needed to learn to work with my nervous system and let go of what was no longer serving me...

For a long time, I thought healing meant understanding every part of my past…

finding meaning in it, working through it, and learning how to carry it better.

And while that mattered, there came a point where something deeper shifted—
when healing stopped being about the story…
and started being about who I was becoming without it.

There’s a different kind of freedom that opens up
when your body no longer feels stuck in survival mode,
and you’re not reacting from old patterns on repeat.

That’s where real change begins.

If you’re ready to move out of fight-or-flight, ease chronic symptoms, and start living from a completely new place—check out Rewire.
