MY STORY

Welcome to The Root Perspective!

Welcome to The Root Perspective!

Thank you so much for visiting! I am excited to share with you a little about myself and how The Root Perspective was born. I hope my health journey resonates with and encourages you to consider Holistic Nutritional Therapy in your life. Here’s a little of MY STORY…

Some background

After having my 2 amazing kiddos, I began to experience odd symptoms that kept me from feeling like myself and doing the things I loved to do. I was experiencing extreme fatigue to the point of falling asleep at stop lights, a lack of energy that kept me from activities I enjoy, mental fogginess and extreme emotional lows that got dark enough to be scary, a slowed metabolism paired with digestive issues, and a complete loss of resiliency to stress that had me in tears wondering why I couldn’t cope. I knew something was not right!

Fast forward to a diagnosis of an Autoimmune Disease; Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis. I was given a prescription and told to have a nice day. That’s it? This is the answer? I strongly disagreed. I chose to advocate for my health and fight for more, which is what I intend to do for you.

My Why

Years after my diagnosis and extensive research into my health, I chose to go back to school to become a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner. I realized that dealing with out-of-the-box symptoms was tough, answers were hard to come by and I felt very alone. I do not want you to feel alone and I am here to provide the tools that helped me get answers and back to healthy, joyful living. I am here to meet you exactly where you are on your health journey and provide the support I couldn’t find.

What I believe

I believe in a Root Perspective of health. It’s important to consider whether or not you are giving your body what it needs from the ground up. If not, you are likely to keep experiencing the same problems because you are not addressing the root of the problem. We must learn what our biololgical needs are and recognize they are not the same as everyone else. Fitness fads and the latest diet trends are most likely NOT the answer. I believe that with increased self-awareness, education, and support, we can create the right change that will impact lifelong health and help you
