Start Now | Live Well! | Ep 99

Imagine getting up every day full of energy is if you were in your 20s. Again, what would that be? Like? What would that be worth to you? What is your health worth to you?

Think about it. Your health isn't everything. But without it, everything else is nothing. And yet too many of us are taking it for granted until something goes wrong. No one wakes up hoping to be diagnosed with a disease or chronic illness. And yet, we've never been taught how to be proactive in our health through our school system, or public health. As a registered health coach and integrative health practitioner, I believe it is time this information is made available to everyone. Combining new knowledge around your health and the ability to do my functional medicine lab tests in the comfort of your own home will allow you to optimize your health for today and all your tomorrow's don't wait for your wake up call.

So what results are you getting. And if you're not getting the results that you like, when it comes to your health, that's indicative of you needing to find another way, and do something differently. And that's where I love this program. Because I'm basically giving you a smorgasbord a menu of practitioners to work with. So you will work with myself, you will work with Cheryl. And after that, you get to choose the practitioners that most resonate with you and your needs and where you're at now. And I will absolutely help guide you in this area as well. Because you might be like, I don't know who I need. So I can absolutely help guide you. But I just want you to know that there's so many options here with nine other practitioners and I will continue to add others. And this allows you to fully customize your healing journey. So let me introduce you to some of these other practitioners that are included in the program. We will have Dr. Melissa Bell isn't in the program. Now. She has a podcast episode coming out with me really soon. It's episode number 101. And she is a concierge pharmacist. And what she will be bringing to the program is helping people who want to come off their pharmaceutical medications and helping you do it safely. And that's what's really important. You can't just stop them, right. And I'm not a doctor, I can't guide you through that process. I'm not trained in that. But Dr. Melissa is. And so that is her specialty, her entire pharmaceutical business is developed around helping people come off their medications because so often we go on a medication, and then we have some kind of a side effect. And so then we need another medication for that which triggers another side effect and it's this rabbit hole of medications that you go down and some people are on 20 and 30 medications and they don't want to be but even some people are on one or two and they don't want to be the on them for life. And so Dr. Melissa will help you come off them safely. She also will help you assess whether doing my detox program is safe for you to do if you are on other pharmaceutical medications and if there's any contraindications between my natural supplements and your pharmaceutical drugs, and Dr. Melissa has done my due detox program. She's very familiar with it. She has helped guide others in terms of their medication, and whether they can do the program or the timing that they take their medication versus the supplements with my program in order to make it work to the best of everybody's ability. So she is a great resource. And I'm excited to have her as part of this program as I am with every single practitioner here. So another lady that we have is Sheree Wirtz, she her podcast episode is episode 100. So it's actually coming out next week. So come back and listen to that. And I love love, love her work. She's a dental hygienist, and also an oral health coach. So she loves to ask, where is your tongue? Now I bet that made you stop and think, Is your tongue on the roof of your mouth when you're relaxed and breathing through your nose or is your tongue on the bottom of your mouth. This is indicative of whether you're a mouth breather or nose breather. And when you're a mouth breather, that can cause all sorts of other medical issues down the line. As well as there are many people that are struggling with sleep apnea. And using CPAP machines. They hate them. They're uncomfortable. Sheree helps people learn how to be nose breathers from mouth breathers with some exercises that she gives you and can help people come off their CPAP machines and get rid of their sleep apnea. So there's many, many people out there in the world today struggling with this. And so I'm so excited to have Sheree in this program in order to help you if that's you. If you struggle with mouth breathing, Sleep Apnea CPAP machines, then you're definitely going to want to work with Sheree. Another person in the program is Trisha purrito. She was interviewed with me on this podcast in episode number 57. And she is my go to gal for addictions. And coming out of the pandemic. There's more addictions than ever, whether it's drug or alcohol. But there's also other addictions like shopping, eating. Excuse me, whenever anybody has addictions, I love to refer them to Trisha. Because Trisha has walked that journey herself, and then gone back to school, studied psychology received all of her certifications and built very, very successful programs in supporting people at a really high level in releasing their dependents and truly living free because they're no longer dependent on that addiction in order for them to cope with their day to day lives. So that's another wonderful, wonderful resource in this program. Then I also have Roberta Hughes and Roberta I met more recently, but I absolutely adore her and her energy, her energy is so calming, it's complete Zen, when you are in a Zoom Room with Roberta, you just feel peace. And if you listen to my December podcasts, you will know they were all about peace. And it's so important for us to feel peace. It's our highest energy level in fact, and it allows a whole central nervous system to come. And what Roberta has, she has a membership, where she has yoga, Pilates and meditation, live classes, as well as recorded videos for you to access so that you can tap into her resources in order to help bring peace into your everyday. But not only that, what I love about Roberta what she does differently, there's a lot of yoga places out there, there's a lot of meditations, you can find. There's a lot of Pilates you can find online. What I love about what Roberta does, is as a member, she will meet with you several times through your program through the first 12 weeks in order to help you find the time in your calendar to do this for yourself. Because that is the thing I hear the most people are busy, and they don't have time or they're saying that excuse me don't have time for their own self care. And sometimes it takes somebody on the outside looking in at your calendar with you in order to find the time when we say we don't have the time ourselves. That's really a story we're telling ourselves. It's harder to tell that when you're working with someone else, and then she's there to hold you accountable. So if all On your healing journey, self care is so incredibly important finding that place of Zen and peace because the body doesn't heal in a stressed out state. So we need to get you into this calm, stress free state in order for the body to truly heal. And if you don't have a program that's working for you already, then you're definitely going to want to work with Roberta, in order to bring yourself out of chronic stress, be able to turn on your parasympathetic nervous system and stay there and allow your body to heal in all of the work that you're doing as you're doing your detoxes with myself and Cheryl. Another member of the group is Holly Middleton. Now Holly is she owns a company called Flow movement therapy. She's a ex dancer, and she had knee injuries missed a major show, and basically looked for new ways to heal herself, and is now sharing that with others. And what she's bringing to this program is an assessment where you get assessed for your gait, the way you move when you walk, or an assessment for your actual foot movement. Because these are really, really important for preventing injury down the line. Or perhaps you already have an injury that isn't healing, and you want support with more of a specialist, then Holly will be your person. All of these people, by the way, are offering a complimentary first session with you, when you sign up for the start now live well program so that you can meet them and determine what it is you need most from them. Because some of them do have a couple of different offers, like Holly can do a gait assessment. And that will lead you down one path or a foot movement assessment which will lead you down another path. So it's very generous of them to offer you a complimentary session, which is included in your package price of the entire start now live well program, you are getting all of these resources available to you and can reach out to those that you resonate with that you feel can help you on your health journey.
