The Story behind the WHY
On average it takes 7.5 years to get a diagnosis of a Chronic Disease. Through experiencing my own journey and with loved-ones, I realized that I was searching for Root Cause answers in a conventional system that isn’t educated or trained to see health this way.
I felt frustrated with how much time and money I was spending and still not able to find the deeper answers to the questions that I was asking. We were constantly being referred to different practitioners and waiting 9+ months to see specialists. I was also spending hours sifting through google and WebMD to find answers between doctor appointment visits. The information was conflicting, confusing and was causing a lot of stress.
Our lab work looked fine and nothing seemed to be out of range. Little did we know, conventional doctors use reference ranges that usually represent the average which are based upon the sickest of the sick in our population.
I felt confused, stressed, worried and powerless.
But it wasn’t my fault or the fault of the health care providers, the government, the system, none of it. Our society is conditioned to go to the doctor, walk-in, or emergency room every time something hurts.
What I didn’t know is that I needed a guide and a proven system that would actually look at the underlying reasons WHY I wasn’t feeling well because the days of tired and wired, weight imbalance, hormone, mental, and gut issues persisted into years.
So instead of falling further into victimhood, I went back to school in my mid thirties and learned from a mentor and guide who had achieved what I was looking to achieve.
