Let us help you rebuild health using functional labs. Our bodies want to heal-let's give it the tools

10/20/2026

I spent 11 years being told my thyroid labs were “normal.” Turns out nobody had checked my antibodies 🙃

Meanwhile I was cold ALL the time, foggy, and my ponytail was about as thick as a plastic straw. When someone finally ran the test, my antibodies were HIGH.

That kicked off a multi year education I didn’t exactly sign up for. Over time I brought those markers back down, and now Adri and I see the same patterns in the women we work with who change the direction of autoimmune disease.

Most of them aren’t the flashy stuff. A few favorites:
👉 TPO, the enzyme my antibodies were targeting, needs IRON to do its job. Who knew?! (Me. Eventually.)
👉 Fasting can be a great tool, until you’re also under-eating ( #3)

And #7 is Adri’s story, which might make you look at your house a little differently 💛

If you’re doing everything “right” and still don’t feel like yourself, this one’s for you. Your body isn’t broken. It’s been doing its best to protect you.

Can anyone relate?

Your morning coffee might be the only 10 quiet minutes you get all day. Good news it’s awesome for you - just a couple caveats ☕️

Somewhere along the way you were probably told to give it up. For your hormones, your cortisol, your sleep. And you kept drinking it anyway, maybe with a little side of guilt.

Fun fact: my husband Jeff roasts our coffee beans himself! He loves finding fun organic beans from all over the world, and our friends and kids are happy taste testers 😊 So of course I got curious about what’s actually in my cup.

We dug into the research, and the short version is pretty sweet: coffee is linked with good things for your liver, your blood sugar, your gut, and even how fast your body ages.

HOW you drink it matters though, so don’t skip the fine print slides. That’s where the sugar, timing, roast, and mold stuff lives.😬

And if your coffee leaves you jittery, wired, or crashing by 2pm, get curious about that. Your body is always trying to tell you something. Sometimes it just wants breakfast first 💛

Happy to share which beans Jeff is roasting right now if you DM us! Or comment below 👇

So the wet bar got a glow up. Jeff built this himself, start to finish, in about two weeks. Tile and all, plus custom wood paneling on the espresso machine if you zoom in! He only roasts organic beans (very picky about that), and Stell, Aston and I are very happy taste testers!

The E.H. Taylor bar mat is the only bourbon leftover, and it turns out it’s a great catch for coffee grounds 😂

If a glass of w**e has started showing up in your sleep, your energy, or how you feel the next morning, you’re not imagining it. Your body is always trying to tell you something.

Swipe to slide 3 for a no-rules way to get curious about it 👉

Coffee has its own fine print too 😉 Part 2 of “What’s in your cup” is coming later this week.

Happy Birthday to our girl Adri 🎉💛

Cancer lit the fire. Fasting gave me the fuel. 🔥

When Adri was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma, she paired conventional treatment with fasting and keto to help metabolically starve cancer cells and reclaim her vitality.

Now we want to help you using the fasting cycle that is unique to you—so you can finally take off that weight, improve mental clarity, balance hormonal shifts and be metabolically strong and flexible.

Here’s a piece of how we guide our clients using the Fasting Cycle from :

✨ Power Phase (Days 1–10, 16–19)– Fast longer (17–72 hrs)– Eat ketobiotic– Target autophagy + fat burn

🌟 Manifestation Phase (Days 11–15)– Shorten fasts (

Ever walk past the laundry aisle or a perfume counter and feel like you’re about to gag from the overwhelming chemical scent? 🙋🏻‍♀️ One simple trick to reset your sense of smell is to take a whiff of coffee grounds—it clears your nasal memory in seconds! ☕️

🫑 Orange peppers are packed with carotenoids, a powerhouse nutrient that supports eye health and vision.

🍍 Pineapple contains bromelain, a natural enzyme that helps suppress coughs and support respiratory health.

🥑🍌 Potassium-rich foods—like bananas and avocados—can help lower blood pressure when combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise.

🌰 Dates are an amazing natural energy source for athletes! Studies show their high carbohydrate and nutrient profile make them just as effective as commercial energy chews.

🌿 Oregano is currently being studied as a potential natural alternative to antibiotics because of its powerful antibacterial properties. (Not medical advice!)

🍎🍏 Apples provide a steady, sustained energy boost thanks to their combination of fiber, antioxidants, and clean carbohydrates—perfect for lasting energy without the crash.
