That’s the transformation we focus on inside The Balanced Body Method. 💪

🌿 For years, I offered different services—meal plans, labs, coaching sessions.

But here’s what I noticed…
👉 The clients who made the biggest, lasting breakthroughs weren’t the ones doing just one thing.
They were the ones who had everything combined—testing, nutrition, and accountability—all in ONE clear program.

Because here’s the truth ⬇️

Labs without coaching can leave you confused.

Coaching without data keeps you guessing.

Nutrition without accountability often fades before it sticks.

✨ When all three come together? That’s when real transformation happens.

That’s why I created The Balanced Body Method—a 6-month program designed to give you the clarity, support, and results you’ve been searching for.

I know you’ve heard me hint that something new was coming… well, here it is!

Let’s talk about high performance—and why I’m shifting all of my private packages to a 6-month minimum.

The clients I work best with are ready.
Ready to show up.
Ready to stop guessing.
Ready to invest in what’s actually going to move the needle.

They’re not looking for band-aid fixes or a few quick tips.
They want to get to the root of what’s going on—whether it’s hormones, gut health, inflammation, or energy crashes that don’t make sense.

And here’s what I’ve learned:
The kind of deep, lasting progress they’re after doesn’t happen in a few weeks.
It takes time, strategy, and support.

That’s why all of my packages moving forward will be 6-month commitments.
Because the work we do isn’t surface-level.
It’s lab-based, personalized, and built around real transformation—and that takes consistency and collaboration.

💥 If you’re the kind of person who’s ready to dive in, who doesn’t need a reminder to show up for yourself, who’s craving guidance that actually works—this is your season.

Let’s work together—at the level where real change happens.

What does high performance really mean when it comes to your health?

It’s not about perfection.
It’s not about pushing harder or hustling through burnout.
It’s about showing up—with intention, commitment, and a deep desire to feel your best.

My high-performing clients don’t wait for the “perfect” time.
They don’t make excuses.
They’re ready to take action—and they’re here because they want to better their health, not because they’re being forced to.

Together, we uncover the next best steps based on their labs, symptoms, and goals.
And then? They execute.
They’re consistent.
They stay curious.
And because of that, we see progress. We move forward. We build real momentum.

💥 That’s high performance.
Not just in the gym.
But in your gut health, hormone balance, mental clarity, and daily energy.

If that’s how you operate—or how you want to—this is the work we do together.

09/07/2025

If you’ve been feeling off lately, it’s easy to question yourself.
Maybe you’ve even tried to talk yourself out of it—
“I’m just tired.” “I should be fine.” “It’s probably just stress.”

But here’s what most people don’t realize…
🧠 Nearly 90% of your serotonin—the neurotransmitter tied to mood and emotional balance—is made in your gut, not your brain.

That means your digestion and mental health aren’t separate.
They’re in constant conversation with each other.
And when that relationship is off, you feel it—sometimes in ways that have nothing to do with food.

💬 A gut that’s inflamed, sluggish, or out of balance can affect how your body makes and regulates serotonin.
It might not start with digestive symptoms.
Instead, it could show up as:

Brain fog

Mood dips that feel out of nowhere

Irritability or anxiety

That restless, uneasy feeling you can’t quite explain

So if you’ve been doing the mindset work… journaling, meditating, trying to stay positive—but still feel like something’s off—your gut might be asking for some support.

Here’s what that can look like (and no, it doesn’t have to be complicated):

🥦 More real, whole foods — especially fiber-rich veggies to feed your good gut bacteria
🥛 Fermented foods — like plain yogurt, sauerkraut, or kefir (if your body tolerates them well)
💧 Hydration — your gut lining needs water to function the way it’s supposed to
📝 Tuning into how food makes you feel — not just emotionally, but physically: clear? bloated? heavy? energized?
😴 Supporting calm & rest — because digestion slows when your nervous system is stressed

This isn’t about chasing perfection or building a flawless routine.
It’s about creating an internal environment where your gut and mind can finally work with each other again—so you don’t feel like you’re carrying the weight of it all on your own.

Most people think of blood sugar as something to worry about only if you’re diabetic. But the truth is your blood sugar affects you all day, every day. Whether you know it or not.

When it’s balanced, your body feels like it can finally exhale.

You wake up without that heavy fog. You feel grounded before the coffee, not desperate for it. Meals satisfy you, not just in your stomach, but in your whole system. You’re not reaching for snacks an hour later or crashing mid-afternoon, wondering why you’re suddenly irritable or craving sugar.

Steady blood sugar feels like:

- Clearer focus and fewer distractions
- Stable energy throughout the day
- Fewer mood swings or emotional crashes
- Feeling full, not just fed
- Less anxiety, more calm

Blood sugar balance doesn’t have to mean cutting out all the foods you love or micromanaging every bite. It’s about creating a foundation -- meals that include protein, fiber, and healthy fats, eating consistently throughout the day, and tuning into how different foods actually make you feel.

Your body is always giving you feedback. When blood sugar is out of balance, it speaks through cravings, crashes, brain fog, or exhaustion. But when it’s steady? Everything feels easier. You’re not just surviving your day -- you’re living it.

And if you’ve been feeling like you’re on a rollercoaster, you’re not alone. There’s a way to get off it. Step by step, meal by meal, you can find that steadiness again.

And when you do...you’ll know.

Some mornings, your body speaks up before your mind has a chance to catch on.

Maybe it’s lingering fatigue, a restless night’s sleep, or that unpredictable energy rollercoaster you definitely didn’t sign up for.
Often, these quiet signals are your hormones trying to get your attention — and believe it or not, what you toss into your blender can help support those internal cues in a powerful way.

There’s no one-size-fits-all smoothie.
But when you align your ingredients with what your body needs in the moment, that quick breakfast becomes more than a habit — it becomes an intentional act of self-care.

Here are three hormone-friendly blends, each crafted with a different goal in mind:

🥬 For Sustained Energy
Spinach, frozen blueberries, flaxseeds, almond butter, and unsweetened almond milk
→ Fiber and healthy fats slow down sugar absorption to stabilize blood sugar and energy levels — no more mid-morning crashes.

🍒 For Calm and Focus
Frozen cherries, avocado, h**p seeds, cacao powder, and coconut water
→ Magnesium and healthy fats from h**p and avocado help regulate cortisol and support your stress response, while cacao adds a mood-boosting edge.

🌱 For Hormone Support After Your Cycle
Cooked and cooled beets, orange segments, ginger, chia seeds, and coconut yogurt
→ Beets and citrus bring folate and vitamin C for healthy estrogen clearance. Chia seeds add omega-3s to support inflammation and ease post-cycle symptoms.

If you try one of these blends, take a moment afterward to check in:
How’s your mood? Energy? Focus?

Your body is always offering feedback. The more you pay attention, the easier it becomes to support it in return.

✨ And if you’re ready to go deeper — to stop guessing and finally understand what your body actually needs — my 12-week functional nutrition program, The Power Within, starts September 10.

This is where we personalize everything — with labs, data, and expert support to help you feel steady, clear, and in control again.

08/21/2025

There’s a difference between enjoying something sweet—and feeling like you have to have it.

That moment when the craving hits hard, and your hand is already reaching for something quick… even though you swore today would be different.

Most of the clients I work with come in frustrated by that moment.
They tell me, “I know better. I’m doing everything right. Why can’t I stop?”

Here’s what I want you to know:
Persistent sugar cravings usually aren’t about willpower.
They’re your body trying to get your attention.

When your gut microbiome is out of balance—when helpful bacteria are depleted and the opportunistic ones are thriving—it can start influencing way more than your digestion.
It can affect your mood, your energy, and yes, your cravings.

Some of those microbes literally feed on sugar… and send signals that make you want more of it.

So no—it’s not just in your head.
It’s not about discipline.
It’s biology.

Sugar might give you a short burst of calm or energy. But it often leaves you feeling more tired, more inflamed, and more disconnected from your body. And then the cycle repeats.

Supporting your gut isn’t about cutting out everything sweet.
It’s about restoring balance—gently and consistently—with fiber-rich meals, fermented foods, and real rhythm in your day.

It’s about noticing what your cravings are really asking for—without judgment.

You don’t need more rules.
You need real support.
And a plan that helps you feel steady, not stuck.

Feeling off but not sure why?
Hormones could be playing a bigger role than you think—and the fix doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes it starts with… snacks. 🍳🥕🍫

In my latest blog post, I’m sharing 10 hormone-supportive snacks that help with:
✔️ Mood swings
✔️ Energy crashes
✔️ Cravings
✔️ PMS symptoms
✔️ Bloating + brain fog

It’s not about perfection. It’s about small, steady shifts that help your body feel safe and supported again.
