My oldest turned 10 years old this week. I recall the months and weeks leading up to delivery, feeling confident in my intuition leading the way for the many decisions I had to make. One of the biggest, of course, is what to do about v@ccines.

I hadn't read a thing about them, but I said to my midwife, "I am not sure, so I am just going to hold off until I read more." I kept thinking to myself..."how does injecting a pathogen make one healthier?" (yes, I get the science behind vaccines, but are our health stats in this country proving they make us healthier?)

My aunt scolded me, telling me it was irresponsible and would not provide herd immunity if I did not v@ccinate my kid. I thought well dangitall, I better read some actual stuff. So I got a huge book that was highly rated - "Dissolving Illusions" by Dr. Suzanne Humphries. I read through that bible of the book quickly and saw that infectious disease was on the decline from sanitation and plumbing by the time v@ccines were introduced. There was a lot of solid information and studies in that book that bolstered my conviction to hold off.

But at his wellness visit, I had a little freak out and thought "oh no, what if I can't send him to school? What if I made the wrong decision?" And the pediatrician said (I kid you not) "Don't be weak. He's so healthy and strong. Don't cave just because everyone tells you it's what you should do".

I continued to listen and read more about them. When the pandemic hit in 2020, I would go on 70-80 minute walks with my dog through the woods, listening to hours and hours on doctors discussing v@ccine mechanisms, the C*vid shot, how the spike protein worked, and why all these long-time physicians were now questioning the lack of data and science behind the childhood v@ccine schedule. My aunt I mentioned asked me for forgiveness when she was red-pilled listening to doctors about the C*vid vaccine.

I never looked back. My kids have been so healthy, strong, and happy. Could they have weathered the shots fine? Possibly. I know many who do. I do wonder if my son has the MTHFR mutation (or others) that would have created a reaction to them. I am glad I never had to find out.

There are a lot of reasons to not v@ccinate and I can list them if you write me a message. But it came down to this for me: I would rather take the chance they encounter a disease naturally (possible chance) rather than encounter them directly in a needle (certain). And when you encounter them in a needle, you often get multiple at once... and how do we know they won't create damage? How do we know that won't set off auto-immune problems? We don't. Imagine the differences in billions' of people's genes and immune function and thinking we know exactly how it'll turn out.

Recently I was talking to my husband about how I talked to a client about treatment alternatives and he quickly interjected, “did you tell them you’re not a doctor!?” I said “they know that”. But you don’t have to be a doctor to know helpful treatment options, to understand science about the human body, or to use intuition regarding your health or your child’s health.

Doesn’t it count for something that I went through the ringer with my own health crisis and have since been in the wellness world for 11 years? That I’ve listened to hundreds of hours from nationally recognized doctors? That I’ve worked with more than a handful of local holistic practitioners?

It’s not equivalent to a degree, but it has value. We have an ocean of information at our fingertips. Doctors taking 10 years off of doctoring to write a book about vaccine history (Dr. Suzanne Humphries) or compiling the 15 years they worked with mold patients (Dr. Jill Crista) or Joe Rogan interviewing the best and brightest in wellness and biohacking.

The information is out there; you don’t have to wait on any doctor or script to make the next move towards health. And who knows, maybe the crazy beetroot lady in town might have a tip or two.

I’m doing a therapeutic ketosis protocol with a client starting next week. I knew she would need a partner to make it stick, so I decided to be the partner. We start next Tuesday… message me if you want to join. We’re doing it for 3 weeks and then evaluating from there.

If you have weight to lose or healing to gain, it could be just the thing you need.

A little more about ketosis (from NeuroLaunch)
When you drastically reduce your carbohydrate intake and increase healthy fats, your body gets the message loud and clear: time to switch fuel sources. Your liver steps up to the plate, converting fatty acids into ketone bodies. These little powerhouses – primarily beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), acetoacetate, and acetone – become your body’s new energy currency.

But ketones aren’t just a substitute for glucose. They’re like the premium, high-octane fuel for your body and brain. BHB, in particular, is a superstar, crossing the blood-brain barrier to provide clean, efficient energy to your neurons. It’s like upgrading from regular gasoline to jet fuel!

We’re following the Dr. Boz Ketosis protocol. I’m sure we will both see benefits!

I can’t count the amount of times people see me and say “I need to get with you sometime” or “I have been wanting to contact you. I need to get off my medications” —
Do you know how many of those people follow up with me?
Zero.

I know they get scared. Or put it off.
Most people are afraid of the freedom they will lose. They don’t realize the freedom they will gain. From the aches, pains, and food addictions. Freedom from feeling trapped in a body that you feel isn’t yours (I was there).
They think a new season of life would be a good time to make a change; once I’m out of this stressful job season or young kid season. But the seasons just shift into other seasons.

It’s easier than you think. And there won’t be a better season than the one you’re in right now.

I didn’t know if I’d have this scene in my life. In college, when I was having my health crisis, I didn’t have enough energy to fully function… how would my body ever support a child?

People are scared of making a change with food. They should be more scared of their illness turning into something worse.

The chronic fatigue, inflammation, pain and brain fog are sacred messengers that something is wrong. You have the opportunity to stop the trajectory. Don’t think you don’t.

I’m grateful for hospitals when acute care is needed. When my daughter had an abscess in her neck 3 years ago, we needed a hospital and we needed quick, intense treatment. It provided just that and because of it, she was released in just a few days.
But what about for chronic conditions? The ailments that don’t seem to find an answer in a conventional system. It just wasn’t built to get to the root cause.

Someone reached out to me who has sought answers the last few years for their chronic illness. They’ve even been to a big medical university.
I told him he should feel hopeful because I could suggest a lot of options and starting points, all of which could have a huge impact.
First, I suggested getting to a chiropractor. And then really revamping his diet - I suggested at minimum getting out grains and sugar. And a further step would be animal-based or carnivore.

I also wrote a list of other things to consider:
-spike protein detox (if symptoms appeared or increased after the Covid va*cine)
-Cranio-sacral massage
-Acupuncture
-Low lever laser therapy (LLLT)
-Parasite detox

The list goes on, but those were initial suggestions. Just because these remedies are off the beaten path, they are not inferior. It often means they aren’t as profitable, but many times are as effective or more than what conventional medicine has in their toolbox.
Have a similar story? I’d love to hear.

I hope the same amount of people who said “yes!” to my recent post about how I don’t have to strength to make my kids eat healthy all the time, will say “yes!” to this too:

I do everything I can to prep and cook real unprocessed foods, prioritize spending on wholesome groceries, and teach my kids what will best nourish their bodies.

Both statements can be true at the same time! We eat healthy, from-scratch 90% of the time and leave wiggle room for the other 10%. Perfection isn’t the goal, but giving it my best effort and leading by example is.

I don’t have the strength to make them eat healthy all the time.

We do our best. We cook from scratch, go out of our way to get grass-fed meats and raw milk, and limit refined sugar, GMO’s, and seed oils. I care a lot. But I can only care so much and control so much before I feel like a crazy person. I’m not going to have them skip birthday party treats, avoid the concessions, or opt out of Halloween candy.
I definitely lessen the amount of these things, but I need my sanity too. My kids are taught what is a nourishing food. As they get older, they’ll have to take ownership for their body and well-being.

I refuse to obsess about every little food choice.

We took our kids out for a fancy dinner and it was so fun. Usually mom and dad go alone, but this time we said yes to them going and they loved it.

We sat outside so they could people watch in downtown Fort Wayne. That puts the perfect cap on summer for us 🫶🏻
