A few years ago, I was running a video production agency with my partner. The work was exciting but the stress was relentless. Deadlines, client demands, late nights — I pushed through it all.
Until my body started pushing back.
It started with discomfort after meals. Then unpredictable bathroom emergencies. Then pain that made me afraid to eat. I told myself this was just my new normal — the price of building a business.
One evening changed that. I had a flare so severe I thought I might pass out. I was alone, scared, and had to call my girlfriend to rush home. That's when she said something I'll never forget:
"This isn't normal. You need help."
She was right. But finding that help? That was its own nightmare.
Doctors ran tests, prescribed medications, and sent me on my way. "You're fine," they'd say — but I wasn't fine. There was no follow-up. No step-by-step guidance. No one helping me understand why this was happening or how to actually heal.
I spent a year searching for answers. Trying elimination diets. Reading research papers at 2 AM. Testing supplements. Some things helped. Many didn't. And I'm still on my own healing journey today.
But through all of it, I discovered something important: I wasn't alone. Millions of people — especially women over 40 — are dealing with the exact same frustration. Dismissed by doctors. Overwhelmed by conflicting advice. Suffering in silence because gut issues feel embarrassing to talk about.
That's why I created Gut Healing Academy.
This is the support system I wish I'd had. A place where you're paired with qualified practitioners who don't just diagnose and disappear — they guide you through every step of your healing journey. Where you're never alone with your symptoms. Where someone actually follows up and adjusts your plan until you feel better.
You deserve more than "you're fine" when you're clearly not. You deserve real answers and real support.
