If you relate to these, then you and I have a LOT If you relate to these, then you and I have a LOT in common.

IBD has been in my life since the early age of 12. It was super hard for a while. I did a lot of trial and error and went from the depths of hell to bring disease free and thriving, so I know how dynamic this diagnosis can be

Fast forward, I ditched my teaching degree to be a holistic nutritionist. This type of medicine healed me in ways I'm forever grateful for.

Now, I run my IBD nutrition practice, working with people from the newly diagnosed to 20 years diagnosed. There's room for all to heal.

My group program that runs cyclically is starting again this week, and *TODAY* 9/13 is the last day to enroll. If IBD has just felt hard and lonely, join us. You're not meant to heal alone and you're not expected to know everything about healing. That's why I developed this IBD school. 💗

We've already done another build-your-own burger n We've already done another build-your-own burger night!! It's SO good and so easy to make gut friendly!

Grab your toppings. I looove pineapple on a burger! Plus the classics like avocado, tomato, cheese, pickles, etc.

Choose your vehicle (or none). I opted for a lettuce wrap but you can go GF bun or totally bunless!

Sauces! We're allll about the homemade sauces like spicy mayo or burger sauce.

Fries! Ours came out much better (a lil less burnt) on our second try, but they're beyond easy to make and you don't have to buy the ones with inflammatory oils from the store. One russet potato made enough for us two plus leftovers. Or, try sweet potato!

I've been craving juicy burgers lately, so I know my body needs the nutrients in red meat. I'm happy to oblige ☺️😍

Have you added a burger night into the dinner rotation yet?!

If your IBD was the theme of the summer instead of If your IBD was the theme of the summer instead of brunch, sun, and a relaxed nervous system, I'm sorry. I know what that's like.

If you've had a dream of not being bloated 24/7, or being able to go out to eat for once without anxiety, and aren't there yet, I get it.

That's why I created my IBD school, to fill in the biggest healing gaps I see over and over with a built-in supportive community (because healing is so much easier when you have a crew that gets it).

Join us as we start next week 😍 for this round of IBD school. We spend 10 weeks focused on all things your healing goals through nutrition, supplementation, nervous system support, daily routines, and more 💗🫶
