My Story — Healing Inside & Out

I didn’t choose this path — my body demanded it.

My journey into natural living and gut health began long before I ever knew it would become my life’s work.

The Early Years

Where It All Began (2009)

After a family member’s cancer diagnosis, I dove into researching the toxins hidden in everyday products. I leaned into my Native American heritage, my love for the earth, and my belief that natural living shouldn’t be expensive or complicated.

I began making my own personal care products — first for myself, then for my family, then as holiday gifts. For over a decade, people kept asking, “When are you going to sell these?”

The Turning Point

Then came 2019 — the wake‑up call.

After years of inflammation, chronic symptoms, and failed elimination diets, I was rushed to the ER with an unexplained anaphylactic reaction. That moment pushed me into the next chapter of my healing journey: gut health.

  • I learned herbalism.

  • I learned to cook differently.

  • I learned to listen to my body.

  • I learned to live superNATURAL.

And I finally created the system that worked.
