Hi! I am so glad you are here!

 

I believe paths cross for a reason. 

​

Most people who have known me my whole life would  describe me as vibrant and nurturing. Taking care of people and nerding out on science, physiology and understanding how the human body works has always felt like a calling.

I studied Human Biology at Stanford, earned a Master’s in Physical Therapy, and spent years helping people out of pain. After years of helping others — and a decade devoted to raising three children —
I found myself anything but vibrant.

​

I was exhausted. Sick constantly. Unmotivated.

Disconnected from my body and myself.
I was functioning — but only barely — living in a constant state of survival.

​

I was told this was normal.
Something in me knew it wasn’t.

​​

After countless appointments and lab tests, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s — an autoimmune condition where the body turns on itself. I was told there was no cure. I was prescribed medication and sent on my way. It helped… until it didn’t. Doses increased. Symptoms worsened. And slowly, my world got smaller.

​

Looking back now, I can see this wasn’t just about my thyroid. It was about years of pushing, overriding signals, and living disconnected from my body’s deeper needs — patterns that often begin long before symptoms appear. Like many people with chronic illness, my body was carrying far more than I knew how to listen to.

​

When we moved back from Italy I reached a breaking point. I turned to functional medicine and nutrition, eventually becoming a certified functional nutritional therapy practitioner — initially out of desperation to heal myself. That education transformed my understanding of food, stress, inflammation, and chronic disease. My gut finally started healing, I dramatically reduced migraines, and reclaimed aspects of my health I once believed were lost.

​

And still… something was missing.

Even with the “right” diet/protocols/supplements, my system would still hit a wall.

During the pandemic, I decided to finally work on what I had always known impacted my health, but hadn’t had the emotional bandwidth to truly process — my childhood trauma.

Thanks to being introduced to the neurobiology of change, I began to understand and address it through a new lens.

Through meditation, neurobiology, and a deeper understanding of how the nervous system interprets experience, I learned how to shift those signals — reducing the constant background stress of unconscious patterns and consciously creating signals of safety instead.

As my thoughts aligned, my breath slowed, and my relationship with my body changed, something profound happened:

my system began to settle.

And in that state of safety, healing accelerated in ways I hadn’t experienced before.

What I came to understand from this:

​

 My body wasn’t failing — it was protecting me.

​

No amount of “doing the right things” could override a nervous system that had learned to stay on guard.

Healing happens when the body feels safe enough — neurologically and emotionally — to remember its own intelligence.

​

Wholemeostasis was born from this understanding — a synthesis of science, lived experience, nervous system regulation, breath, language, and reconnection.

It is not only the pursuit of balance.
It is the return to wholeness — where balance naturally follows.

It is not about fixing what’s broken.
It is about restoring relationship within the body so that healing can occur naturally.​​

It recognizes that chronic symptoms are not failures — they are communications. And that words, vibration, breath, and intention are not “nice add-ons,” but actual medicine the body also needs.

​

When the body feels supported, and no longer under threat, it reorganizes.

It recalibrates.
It heals.

​

I don’t believe healing should feel like a battle, a full-time job, or a constant state of self-monitoring. I believe it can feel gentle, empowering- and even full of awe.
