some thoughts lately that felt important to share 💕

I see so many people obsessing about wearables, the newest diet, and the latest wellness trends…

the wellness world is loud — but never forget the importance and power of tuning into your own body

and remember that the whole point isn’t to have a hyper-optimized life — it’s to feel alive and vibrant so you can do the things you love in this short life we have 🤍

this is SUCH a big part of the gut-healing process that most women completely miss (and it’s keeping them stuck)

most people try to heal their gut thinking *food* is the problem – and they end up restricting more & more foods, and having massive food fear & anxiety about eating the “wrong thing”

But here’s the surprising part: food isn’t actually the issue 😮

And unfortunately, this stress about food often turns into a vicious cycle for many women:

increased restriction & food fear/meal anxiety ➡️ mistrust in the body ➡️ more control/anxiety ➡️ more gut issues…

this is just one small piece of a much bigger puzzle when it comes to gut healing (especially if you’re dealing with constipation and/or bloat)

what I wish more women understood was that the stress about what you’re eating is much worse than just eating the “unhealthy” or “non-ideal” food

yes, food still matters. But it’s NOT the only thing that matters, and it actually plays a much smaller role than most people realize

if this topic interests you, we’re going to do a deep dive on it as a brand-new resource in The Constipation Fix course very soon

The Constipation Fix isn’t just another online course ⤵️

it’s the most comprehensive program out there to help you get rid of your constipation for good 💩

it addresses all pieces of the constipation puzzle that most people (and practitioners) completely miss

it’s helped my clients who have struggled with constipation for 25 years totally get rid of their constipation

once you’re in the course, you get access to all future trainings (like this one on how your thoughts & beliefs impact how your body responds to food), and SO much more

A note to my fellow constipated girlies 💕

I see you.

Checking your belly in the mirror every morning.

Sitting on the toilet hoping something happens before work.

Chugging water, eating fiber, exercising, doing “all the right things” and still not pooping like a normal person.

You’re tired of your gut taking up so much mental bandwidth. Turning down plans because you feel awful. Scanning menus. Wanting to unbutton your pants by 3pm. Dreading travel because it makes everything worse.

Maybe you’ve even convinced yourself that you’ve tried everything and nothing works.

That was me, too.

It’s also how so many of my clients felt before they finally healed their chronic constipation and started having regular, comfortable bowel movements.

Here’s what I’ve learned after 6+ years in clinical practice:

Most people with constipation don’t need more information. You’ve already Googled, ChatGPT’ed, and saved every constipation tip on Instagram. The problem is that most advice is missing key pieces of the puzzle.

That’s why I created The Constipation Fix.

This course addresses the root causes of constipation that are often overlooked, even by practitioners.

I’ve had clients come through this program after working with multiple providers, doing all the tests, trying all the protocols, and still getting nowhere.

The goal isn’t to overwhelm you with more information.

It’s to give you exactly what matters, cut through the noise, and help you finally get your gut working again.

If you’re ready to stop letting constipation run your life, I’d love to have you inside The Constipation Fix.

May moments ✨

Most constipation advice online is wayyyy too simplistic.

“Eat more fiber.” ➡️ you’ve already tried that 🫠
“Drink more water.” ➡️ duh 🤦🏻‍♀️
“Take magnesium.” ➡️ not working 🙄

Chronic constipation is usually much more complex than that.

After years of working with women with chronic constipation, I’ve found that most cases involve multiple root causes happening at the same time, not just one.

👉🏻 Slow motility.
👉🏻 Poor digestion.
👉🏻 Microbiome imbalances.
👉🏻 Nutrient deficiencies.
👉🏻 Nervous system dysregulation.

This is also why random gut health advice can backfire so easily 👎🏻

For example, increasing fiber too quickly in a slow-moving gut often makes symptoms WORSE, not better 😩

The order matters.

In most cases, you need to:

1️⃣ get the gut moving properly first
2️⃣ support digestion
3️⃣ rebuild the microbiome strategically
4️⃣ support the nervous system alongside all of it

That’s exactly why I created The Constipation Fix 💩

A step-by-step framework to help women stop guessing and finally understand what’s actually driving their constipation (and fix it once and for all!).

Because you should not have to organize your life around your bowel movements.
