It’s 7:15 PM, you’ve answered everyone’s questions all day long, your brain is running on fumes and somehow, dinner still expects to happen.

Tonight’s “I don’t have the energy to cook” meal ended up looking pretty fancy:

🥑Grilled chicken burger (ground chicken, extra virgin olive oil, Celtic sea salt) topped with mashed avocado
🍍Grilled pineapple
🥦Sautéed broccolini
🥬Mixed greens with red wine vinegar

Greens and broccolini both fresh and fabulous from my CSA with

Proof that healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated, perfect, or take all night!

Your standard labs are a starting point, but they don't always tell the whole story.

In functional medicine, we use specialized testing to dig deeper: hormones, gut health, nutrient levels, toxic burden, mold, food sensitivities, and more.

When we know what's actually going on, we can build a plan that works.

Let's talk about a misconception I see all the time in practice…

"Does everyone have parasites?"

Here's the truth: our bodies come into contact with parasites regularly - through food, water, pets, and everyday life.

But here's the thing, we also have natural detox pathways designed to handle them.

So the real question isn't do you have parasites?

It's do you have an overgrowth or infestation?

That's what we're actually looking for when we run testing in practice.

There's a big difference between contact and colonization and understanding that difference matters for your health.

If you're dealing with digestive symptoms that won't quit, I'd love to help.

I recently presented a workshop on Food, Stress, & Sleep for the conservatory program at Nebraska School of Performing Arts.

I am so deeply grateful to and Audrey Barrett for hosting the event!

I'm going to be real with you for a minute.

Functional medicine isn't a magic pill. I cannot hand you a supplement and undo years of poor sleep, chronic stress, processed food, and untreated hormonal imbalance overnight.

What I CAN do is give you the roadmap. The right testing, the personalized plan, the supplements your body actually needs, and the support to make sustainable change.

But the day-to-day work? That belongs to you.

The protein at every meal. The 8 hours of sleep. The walks instead of doom-scrolling. The stress management. The not-going-back-to-the-thing-that-broke-you-in-the-first-place.

The women who get incredible results are the ones who decide they're worth the effort and then show up for themselves consistently.

If you're ready to do that work, I'm ready to walk it with you.

If you're struggling to get pregnant, your practitioner is probably zeroed in on your s*x hormones, but there are TWO other systems being completely overlooked:

Your adrenals.
Your gut.

Here's the truth: these three systems work together. One can't thrive if the others are struggling.

🔸 Chronic stress → elevated cortisol → disrupted s*x hormone production

🔸 Processed foods, sugar, and stress → gut imbalance → adrenal dysfunction → hormone chaos

You can't optimize fertility by looking at s*x hormones alone. We have to evaluate the whole picture.

If you've been doing "all the right things" and still not seeing results, this might be your missing piece.

Perimenopause tip you'll thank me for later ☕️👇

If I could share just ONE thing with women in perimenopause, it's this: don't drink coffee on an empty stomach.

Eat breakfast FIRST — aim for 25-35g of protein — then enjoy your coffee.

Why? Coffee on an empty stomach spikes your cortisol, which leads to:

⚡ Energy crashes later in the day
⚖️ Weight gain over time
😩 Hormonal chaos you don't need

Protein first. Coffee second.

Your hormones will thank you.

We recently covered the Dirty Dozen. Today, the good news: the Clean 15.

These are the fruits and vegetables EWG found to have the LOWEST pesticide residue in 2026. Meaning if your budget is tight, these are the items where buying conventional (non-organic) is generally a safer bet.

Swipe for the full 2026 Clean 15 list. 👉

A few things to keep in mind:

✅ "Lower residue" still doesn't mean zero — wash your produce well.
✅ Buying organic is still better when you can swing it.
✅ Eating MORE vegetables (even conventional ones) is almost always better than eating fewer.

Bottom line: Eat the rainbow, prioritize organic where it matters most, and stop stressing about the rest.
