Today’s episode topic is one that may feel a little uncomfortable, but it’s something I see time and time again in the holistic and functional health space: the obsession with finding the root cause.
It’s become this almost romanticized mission. Like, once you discover that ONE hidden issue, everything will *magically* fall into place!
But…what if I told you that this chase could actually be what’s holding you back from experiencing true healing?
I’m diving into why healing doesn’t always follow a linear path, how it looks when you get caught up in trying to ‘fix’ yourself and obsess over every.single.thing, why leaning into self-awareness can be the most powerful tool in your healing journey, and more.
You might never find that elusive ‘root cause’, but that’s okay! It doesn’t mean that you’re broken – your progress still matters, even when it’s not showing up on a lab test.
If you’re ready for personalized support that’s rooted in guidance (not judgment), our 1:1 program might be the next step for you. We’re currently accepting new clients for May 2025, and would LOVE to walk alongside you on your healing journey!

Lots of Love,
I'm a Certified Holistic Nutritionist + Holistic Health Coach, Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist and owner of an integrative virtual wellness clinic that has helped hundreds of women on their journey to optimal health.
I know from my own personal health journey that it's possible to reclaim my body after years of struggling. I was confused and overwhelmed, dismissed by health providers who didn't take the time to understand the "why" behind my symptoms. Then I discovered Functional Nutrition and worked through the process of unraveling the root causes behind my struggles, everything changed.
Now I'm here to help you do the same!
