On March 5th of this year, I sat on the other end of a follow-up call with my N.D.
Routine blood work for my thyroid refill turned into the wake-up call of a lifetime.
"Do you know why we’re having this call?" my doctor asked.
"I’m assuming you need to change my prescription?"
"No. Your C-reactive protein level should be below 1. It was 0.5 a year ago. Right now, it's almost 8. This means your body is fighting systemic inflammation, and if we don't get a handle on it, it will become chronic. What have you been doing?"
I racked my brain... 2024 and these last few years will forever be remembered as the years marked by black mold, high cortisol levels, relentless change, and insurmountable pressure.
After walking through the possibilities, my doctor finally said, "Hm. I’m stumped."
He prescribed a list of supplements and powders — filled with maltodextrin, synthetic vitamins, and formulas that felt anything but life-giving — and sent me off to retest in three months.
Thankfully, I know how to heal my body.
But even with all my knowledge, the news shook me. I felt overwhelmed, especially because, deep down, I knew something wasn’t right. The bloating after every meal, the fatigue... the signs had been there.
The truth is that I've been so busy healing others that I've neglected my own health.Even healers get sick sometimes. It’s how we learn. It’s how we grow.
Over the coming days, I’ll be sharing more about this healing journey because women don’t talk about these things enough.
And we need to.
And we need to.
I’ve now been 55 days on a raw, mucusless diet.
No small feat for a steak-loving, raw cheese and fresh sourdough bread-loving farm girl.

But let me tell you — when you’re in a state of dis-ease, you can't keep doing the things that created it and expect different results.
I created a plan for myself based on a regimen I’ve been developing for over a decade. It's the same approach that has helped thousands eliminate inflammation, bloating, chronic fatigue — even persistent pain.
I’ve reversed my own Hashimoto’s autoimmune disease before. I’ve reduced my thyroid medication. I’ve overcome chronic fatigue.
And yet, in the quiet hours of these last six weeks, I found myself asking: How can this be happening to me?

What I’ve discovered is twofold:
First, you can be doing a lot of things right, but if you don’t address stress and emotional toxins, your body holds the blockage. It affects everything — digestion, metabolism, and healing.
Second, sometimes, the trials we walk through are meant to position us for necessary growth and necessary change.
I’ve also witnessed the true power of a healing crisis — and that's what I’ll be sharing with you over the coming days.
Because the truth is, I have felt more sick in the last six weeks than I have in my entire life.
As my body expelled toxins — physical, spiritual, emotional — the symptoms were extreme.

But then something remarkable has been happening.
And while I’m not out of the weeds yet, I have begun to see the physical evidence of aging in reverse.
My skin is firmer at 44 - I can see the anti-aging effect of eating living foods.
My eyes have become brighter.
And as a side note, I lost 30 pounds of lingering "baby weight" — not my goal, but a welcome outcome.

If you or someone you love is experiencing illness right now, hear me when I say this:
There are no incurable diseases. Period.
Your body was designed to heal when given the right conditions. It will take time… sometimes more than we expect. But creating illness takes time… giving your body the time it needs is critical. And relate yourself mentally for the long term adventure of being whole.
And remember, illness is a byproduct of blockage — physical, emotional — and 90% of the time is tied to mucus buildup in the body.
The Alchemy Code Diet has been a passion project of mine for almost 20 years — long before it had a name.
I want to see people healed and whole, so they can accomplish everything God has called them to.

It’s nearly impossible to change the world when your body is broken.
Step One of this healing journey?
I'll share the science behind it tomorrow, but for today:
1. Drink at least half your body weight in ounces of pure, clean water every day.
Not tea.
Not juice.
Just simple, living water.
