Feel free to visit the ABOUT ELLE section on my website for more about my journey - it also has links to MEDIA and PRESS.
I was born in 1973 with GenX grit and zero patience for BS. Survivor of medical gaslighting.
I was hit twice in my 30s with debilitating thyroid issues, including a severe Reverse T3 problem. I was exhausted, riddled with over 30 symptoms, depressed, overwhelmed—and the medical community had no solutions for me. I lost about 7 years of that decade.
I was dismissed by over two dozen endocrinologists and specialists, misdiagnosed, and left in the dust to suffer.
But I refused to give up.
I became my own advocate and discovered the real solutions and dosing protocols that actually work, and I fixed myself without the help of a doctor - twice!
I understand how overwhelming, lonely, and frightening it can be to navigate this condition. I know what it’s like to cry daily, feeling abandoned by the very doctors who are supposed to help. I was riddled with over 30 symptoms, dismissed by more than two dozen endocrinologists and hormone specialists, and left to wonder why no one could help me.
That’s why I took matters into my own hands, became my own advocate, and ultimately, my own doctor. And it worked.
I then became a #1 bestselling thyroid author with my book translated into multiple foreign languages...from there, I created everything you see on my website to help others fix thyroid issues quickly!
Unfortunately, my story is not unique, because like millions of thyroid patients, I was unable to find a doctor or an endocrinologist who was informed enough to fix my thyroid issues. Maybe you can't either. I get it. That's why you are here. I am so happy to help you fix this!
