The tool that helped me
finally feel like myself
again.
After years of doing everything “right” and still feeling stuck, I started microdosing tirzepatide — and everything changed. Here’s my story, and the resources I wish I’d had from day one.
MY STORY
I tried everything.
Then I tried this.
In spring 2025, I was sitting at a high body fat percentage with stubborn inflammation, elevated blood sugar, and cyclical acne — completely frustrated that my body wasn’t responding the way it used to, despite doing all the right things.
After deep research into the science behind microdosing GLP-1/GIP agonists, I decided to start tirzepatide at a very low, intentional dose. I took it slow and stayed deeply connected to how my body was responding.
Over the course of 9 months, 20 lbs of stubborn inflammation left my body. I gained muscle. My blood sugar stabilized. My skin cleared. And I stepped into the strongest, most confident version of myself I’ve ever known.
As a functional nutritionist, I was watching this unfold from both sides — as a patient and as a clinician. What I learned changed how I think about hormonal health, inflammation, and what’s truly possible.
