what struck me most about my client’s experience wasn’t just the comment she received

it was how quickly she questioned herself because of it.

this is what happens when women are taught to outsource their intuition to systems that only see numbers on a sheet.
systems that don’t ask questions.
don’t hold context.
don’t recognize grief or stress or progress.

systems that scan the labs and skip the woman.

and when you’ve been conditioned to believe those systems know you better than you know yourself…

shame becomes the default.

you assume you must be the problem.
you must not be doing enough.
you must be failing.

but you’re not.
you are simply trying to be seen in a system that works best when you’re reduced to data and protocol

inside GUIDED, you learn how to trust your own intuition again

not by guessing, but by understanding how God designed your physiology to work as one whole, connected, purposeful system.

you learn the patterns, the signals, the context…
and you stop handing your self-trust over to people who don’t truly see you.

if you want to be supported in that way, GUIDED is where we do that.

12/02/2025

so many women think they’re failing because they can’t “stick to it.”

the macros.
the clean eating.
the supplements.
the morning routines.
the biohacks.
the discipline.

but here’s the truth:
you can’t out-discipline dysregulated physiology.
you can be the most motivated woman in the room

and if your blood sugar is swinging,
your minerals are drained,
your cortisol is compensating,
your digestion is inflamed,
and your hormones are downstream of chaos…

your body will override every plan you try to force.

not because you’re weak.
not because you’re inconsistent.
because physiology always wins.

and yet women keep being told to “try harder.”

try harder to restrict.
try harder to control.
try harder to earn their healing.

the problem isn’t your willpower.
the problem is that no one taught you how to rebuild the systems that make discipline possible.

blood sugar stability.
mineral restoration.
stress capacity.
digestive resilience.
thyroid support.
actual hormone clarity.

this is the part women are never taught
and it’s why they stay stuck in cycles of burnout, shame, and starting over.

your body isn’t sabotaging you.
your physiology is asking for support.

and this is exactly why i created GUIDED
my newly launched, functional health intensive that combines functional testing, physiology-first strategy, and actual support so you can stop fighting your body and finally feel stable inside it.

it’s the deepest, most comprehensive, most transformative offer i’ve ever created.

and it’s for the woman who is DONE wasting years on the wrong strategies…and feeling inadequate because of it.

the more i lean into this, the more i see...
healing isn’t about fixing what’s broken.
it’s about removing what never belonged
so you can remember how God already designed it to work.

your body isn’t fighting you.
it’s inviting you back.

to rhythm.
to innate intelligence.
to abide instead of escape.

quietly. intentionally.

because when we let go of what the world told us our bodies should do/shouldn’t do/should be…

we start listening and allowing them to be as God always intended.

and the deeper transformation is that we learn to abide in Him through returning to the very design He gave us.

He is inviting us to know Him deeper by understanding US deeper.

that’s the heart of and we’re leaning into it more fully than ever 🤍

✨ Tired of only working with the providers your insurance company tells you that you can?
That was one of the most frustrating parts of traditional insurance for me — the limits, the red tape, and the hoops to jump through just to get the care you actually need.
With Christian Healthcare Ministries (CHM) — the original health cost sharing ministry — you have the freedom to choose your own provider and submit eligible medical bills for sharing within a biblical community of believers.
It’s not insurance — it’s a faith-based healthcare solution where members live in covenant, not contract. 💛

👇 Curious how it works or want to see if it could fit your family?

💅🏼💄💋

i’ll go first: for a few years there, my foundation and contour were never quite blending together like they should have been…but since I switched up my skincare, i’m glowing and finally feel like me ✨

maybe yours feels like finally finding the most blend-able foundation that goes on like butter, or maybe it feels like jabbing yourself in the eye with a mascara wand ?? 🙈

✨💄 your turn — drop yours below👇

your hormones are responders.
they respond to your blood sugar.
they respond to your stress load.
they respond to how well you digest and absorb nutrients.

if those foundations aren’t stable, your hormones will keep “reacting” no matter how many supplements, protocols, or hormone-specific treatments you throw at them.

and that’s why so many women spin their wheels trying to “fix” hormones without first creating stability in the systems that drive them.

in my ABIDEwell foundations membership, i walk you through exactly what to work on, when, and how, meeting you right where you are in your health journey so you can stop guessing and start making progress that lasts.

comment “COMMUNITY” or visit the link in my bio to jump into the private ABIDEwell community!

07/22/2025

We just broke this down in detail on our live ABIDEwell community call last night:

✔️ The 3 physiological stages of stress
✔️ What symptoms show up in each
✔️ Which supplements, lifestyle strategies and workouts help, and which ones backfire

Because most women are unknowingly stuck in stage 2 or 3...
still trying to fix their hormones with stage 1 strategies they saw on Instagram…(NOT EVERY WOMAN HAS “HIGH CORTISOL”!!)

That’s why you’re exhausted.
That’s why your period’s off.
That’s why the ashwagandha and the cold plunging aren’t fixing it.

👉 Your body isn’t broken.
You just haven’t been given a roadmap that starts in the right place.

ABIDEwell Foundations is where we change that.
Inside the membership, we walk through every layer of healing, step-by-step:

• Stress & sleep
• Digestion & minerals
• Blood sugar balance
• Hormones & cycle support
• Thyroid & metabolic health

You don’t need to do it all at once.
You just need to do it in the right order…and not alone.

Doors to the membership are open now!
Come join the women already inside who are taking these principles and implementing them and already seeing amazing changes!

you’ve been trying.
the podcasts, the supplements, the detox tools, the protocols your favorite influencer swears by.

but nothing’s really sticking.
not because you’re doing it wrong—but because no one gave you a roadmap.

The ABIDEwell Method is my holistic, functional health framework i use with my private clients—now inside a membership that actually teaches you how to support your body step by step.

it’s for the woman who’s done guessing and ready to finally understand what her body needs—and in what order.

and yes—you get me in there too inside the private app.

answering questions, helping you troubleshoot, and guiding you through the process…

like having a functional medicine practitioner in your back pocket 🫶

founders rate is just $97/month
BUT the price goes up after july 21st—when we kick off our first live call! 🎉

if this is what you’ve been looking for, don’t delay getting answers. join through the link in my bio or comment “MEMBERSHIP” and i’ll send you the details 🫶

i started noticing a pattern with my 1:1 clients…

even with personalized protocols and support, they still had questions.

they needed more education, more space to revisit what we covered, and honestly—more community.

it wasn’t a flaw in 1:1 care.
it was a gap in how we carry what we learn into real life and the day to day of living it out.

and i realized if my own clients were feeling this way,
so many other women were too…
women who didn’t know where to start, felt overwhelmed trying to DIY,
or were craving a place to actually understand their bodies (not just patch symptoms).

that’s why i built the ABIDEwell foundations membership
→ it’s my proven method broken into bite-sized modules
→ rooted in my exact framework i use in private care
→ and designed to give you a roadmap you can come back to again and again—no matter what season you’re in

you’ll also get access to monthly live calls, our private community, resources, symptom trackers, and my custom labs + supplements at a discount.

this is meant to be your functional health hub to ask questions, get answers, and have the resources to implement right away—while being supported and encouraged along the way.

we cover blood sugar balancing, gut health, detox supports, functional labs vs. traditional labs, what a normal bowel movement looks like (yes ladies, this is important too!), how to track your cycle and what it tells you about your hormones, and more

🚪doors open JULY 7TH with founder’s pricing 🙌✨
comment WAITLIST and i’ll make sure you get early access when the doors open🧪

you can feel totally off… even when your labs seem to say “everything looks normal.”

these are some of the most overlooked markers I see on bloodwork — ones that can quietly signal thyroid dysfunction, hormone imbalance, detox issues, blood sugar swings, and even chronic inflammation.

the problem? most providers are just scanning for disease, not paying attention to what your body is trying to tell you based on early dysfunctional patterns…

this is exactly why I made the Read Your Own Labs guide — so you can understand your results and stop second-guessing how you feel!

this resource was designed specifically for women who keep getting told everything is normal, but don’t have the education in blood labs, or resources to feel like they can advocate more for themselves despite feeling like “this can’t be how I’m supposed to feel!”

if this is you, or you know someone that’s going through this…

before you assume your hormones are the problem,
we need to look at the systems that create hormonal balance in the first place:
blood sugar, mineral status, nervous system health, sleep, and the gut microbiome

because hormones don’t exist in a vacuum—
they respond to the environment inside your body.

this is why i don’t start immediately with hormone protocols in my practice,

i start with restoring rhythm

and when we do, hormones often correct themselves without needing extreme interventions, because they have stability in the foundations needed for hormonal balance

if you’re stuck on the hormone rollercoaster and tired of guessing—
book a discovery call at the link in bio and learn about my methodical approach that has helped hundreds of women find hormonal harmony 🫶
