My Story
Struggling with friendships, marriage life, relationships in general?
Finding it hard to deal with stresses in life that you were able to cope with before?
Lacking energy, and patience with everything and everyone?
Feeling up and down depending on the day, not knowing why today you feel like crying all the time, depressed or inundated with feelings of fear or anxiety?
Not feeling like yourself anymore?
Questioning everything in your life, your job, your marriage, your career?
Not sleeping like before? Waking up in the middle of the night? perhaps having to go to the loo, or covered in night sweats?
Are you always worrying about everything? Feeling alone and lost?
Are you suddenly feeling "old", forgetful, with new body aches, dry skin?
I could go on and on…I feel you, I’ve been there too.
In my early 40s, I felt most of the above. I felt awful. My moods were so unpredictable that a lot of the time I didn’t like myself anymore.
I thought that there was something wrong with me, that I was failing at being a mum, a wife, a friend, a daughter. I felt I was failing at everything. And I was exhausted. I was about to crash down. And I did.
I realised I needed to find help and start focusing on taking care of myself rather than everyone else. And I realised I was the one to do it, nobody else was going to. With the help of my herbalist, Susi; I started to regain balance.
Functional testing, like the Dutch test, helped me understand how the way my body was detoxifying hormones was impacting my symptoms and how to support this. This and other functional tests helped me understand and put together the missing pieces to feel better. I want to help you so that it’s quicker and easier for you.
Do you relate to all or some of the symptoms above?
Do you desperately want to feel better, and thrive but you don't know what to do?
