Health Coaching for Creatives
For years, I poured myself into my music career - chasing opportunities and constantly pushing forward. I believed that sacrificing rest and balance was the price of success, until my body made it impossible to ignore the toll: I burned out, and my health collapsed.That moment became a turning point. Rebuilding wasn't just physical - it was a long process of unlearning, and finding the kind of balance where my creativity could thrive again, free from the pressures of hustle culture.My healing journey deepened even further in 2024, when I accidentally drank contaminated water in Guatemala. What followed was a severe parasitic infection that catapulted me into a year-long gut healing process. During the acute phase I experienced intense physical and emotional symptoms - tachycardia, night sweats, insomnia, nausea, histamine intolerance, and waves of anxiety that I realized were coming from my body, not my mind. It was then that I truly discovered how profoundly the gut is connected to both mental health and the nervous system.Conventional healthcare offered little support, as standard tests kept coming back negative. It wasn’t until I sought out functional DNA-based testing that three parasites were finally identified, alongside H. pylori, SIBO, leaky gut, candida and MCAS. Taking my health into my own hands, I committed to learning everything I could about holistic wellbeing and supporting the body’s innate capacity to heal.
I eventually became a certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coach.Today, I specialize in nervous system regulation and gut health, supporting other creatives in finding the same balance I once had to fight to reclaim.
- My Approach -My coaching framework is rooted in polyvagal theory and the principle that lasting healing begins with safety in the body. Together, we work on regulating the nervous system, creating a foundation where the body feels safe enough to repair, digest, and restore.I believe that healing is both science-based and deeply intuitive. On the practical side, I can guide you toward advanced functional testing options if needed, and create gentle supplementation and nutrition recommendations that support gut lining integrity, rebalance the terrain, and nourish the body. On the personal side, I guide clients in listening to their own intuitive nudges - the same inner guidance that was vital on my own healing journey.My goal is that you not only find relief, but also feel empowered to advocate for yourself and understand your body’s signals. This is where true transformation begins: in the blend of knowledge, intuition, and self-trust.If you feel called to this work, you can book a free introductory call with me below to see if we’re a good fit for your healing journey.
