Jacquelyn’s Story

When looking back on my journey with digestive issues, I remember the years spent waking up with severe bloating, abdominal pain, constant fatigue, and a sense of overwhelming frustration with how to get back to truly living my life. 

My journey led me to numerous gastroenterologists, where I was diagnosed with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). My curiosity about my condition grew, and I delved into understanding how it could be managed through nutrition and lifestyle changes. However, during countless doctor's appointments and emergency room visits, I was often met with advice that felt restrictive and insufficient—lifelong elimination diets and vague suggestions to "stress less" without much practical guidance. Meanwhile, working with multiple health coaches left me overwhelmed by supplements and even more dietary restrictions. I realized that individualized nutrition care tailored to each person's unique symptoms and lifestyle was crucial for effective symptom management.

These experiences inspired me to become a registered dietitian dedicated to helping others navigate their digestive health journey with empathy and evidence-based guidance. My mission is to provide unwavering, evidence-based support and create a space for your healing journey, allowing you to live your fullest life possible. I blend my professional expertise as a registered dietitian with the kind of support and understanding I wished I had during my own journey.

Today, I am grateful to say that my digestive symptoms are well-managed, and I am confident that there is a path to healing for everyone. Remember, healing from gastrointestinal issues is possible, and your journey begins with one clear, effective, and sustainable step at a time.
