What Your Body May Be Trying to Tell You
Our bodies often give us subtle clues before disease develops. Low energy, poor sleep, brain fog, digestive issues, stubborn weight gain, mood changes, hormonal imbalances, feeling stressed or overwhelmed or simply not feeling like your self aren't always random—they may be your body's way of telling you it needs more support.
That doesn't mean every symptom has a simple answer. But I do believe they're worth listening to.
That's why my approach focuses on understanding the whole picture rather than chasing individual symptoms. Together, we'll explore your health history, lifestyle, nutrition, stress, and, when appropriate, functional lab testing to better understand what your body may be trying to tell you.
Because understanding your body is the first step to Feel Better and Live Better.
Why I created WakeUp Wellness
For more than three decades, I've had the privilege of caring for people through some of life's most challenging moments. While I loved helping people recover from illness, I often found myself asking a different question: What if we didn't have to wait until someone became sick to start taking better care of their health?
Outside of nursing, my partner Brian and I share a love of traveling, spending time on the water, and living an active life. Like many couples, we reached a point where we wanted to be more intentional about our health—not because we were facing a major illness, but because we wanted to stay healthy, energetic, and mentally sharp for years to come.
As we learned more about nutrition, lifestyle and preventive health, we noticed some of our own health markers beginning to trend in the wrong direction. Nothing alarming. Nothing that required medicaion. But enough to remind us that health doesn't usually change overnight—it changes gradually.
That realization inspired me to study functional health more deeply. The more I learned, the more I realized that our bodies often give us subtle clues long before disease develops. Today, I combine over three decades of nursing experience with advanced training in functional health to help other people understand what their bodies may be trying to tell them and create practical, personalized wellness plans that support lasting health.
That's why I created WakeUp Wellness.
Because I believe you deserve more than simply living longer—you deserve to feel your best while you're living it. Good health isn't just about adding years to your life—it's about adding life to your years.
