A little over a decade ago, I was handed a diagnosis that changed everything. Cancer does not just ask questions of your body. It asks questions of your life, your faith, and every assumption you have ever made about what health even means.

What I discovered in that season was that my body had been trying to get my attention for years, especially through my gut. The bloating, the exhaustion, the inflammation I had normalized were not random. They were signals. And the medical system I had trusted to interpret those signals had no real answers beyond another prescription.

So I went looking for a different way. I trained as a Doctor of Natural Medicine. I studied functional and energetic approaches to gut health and chronic illness. And through that same season, my faith stopped being something I practiced on Sundays and became the ground I stood on every single day. I came to understand health the way I now teach it: as spirit, soul, and body, healed together, in that order.
