Background
I have always been a go-getter! I have loved creating meals since the days of play food and Easy Bake Ovens. Of course, most of my “homemade” creations involved a lot of sugar at the time, but, nonetheless, I always wanted food to taste great and look pretty.
This led me down a path of becoming an RDN, getting my masters at KUMC (go Chiefs) and obtaining specialized training in functional and integrative medicine.
Nutrition has always been at the center of my world but it seems until illness or disease hits, we trick ourselves into thinking that our bodies are invincible.
My whole life was turned upside down after returning from my dream Hawaii trip. I broke out in a full body rash, my kidneys started to decline, I was extremely fatigued and had unbearable muscle pain. Upon seeing several doctors and spending thousands of dollars, the tests came back inconclusive forcing me to take a deeper dive into the why behind my own symptoms.
Reflecting back on this unknown season, I can now see the testimony that was being written. I was frustrated, scared, confused and most of all just desperately wanted answers.
At LivingWell Nutrition, we approach health with a functional lens, shifting our focus from quick, temporary relief to sustainable change. Although this can take some time, dialing in your health strategy is key to seeing success. Using a personalized full body approach, we gather your goals, get the clinical data and customize protocols according to your needs. Each case is different and can allow for a lot of bio individuality but I think that's what makes this unique. We are walking with you on your health journey and helping you to pivot as needed. After our time together you can expect to walk away feeling refreshed and equipped with the tools needed to move forward in your health.
Now having encountered debilitating symptoms myself, I have an even greater appreciation for the practitioners that spent time listening to my story, that didn’t write me off and that helped me find my way. I cannot wait to do the same for you.
Together, let's take the next steps to start your healing journey!
