If you have an ongoing illness, this is the sign you’ve been waiting for: Go sign up to work with Julie!!

I started working with Julie when I had debilitating chronic pain, fatigue, and depression. I had been sick with this chronic “mystery illness” for several years and hadn’t been able to recover, despite seeing a plethora of specialists. Julie’s compassionate nutritional advice was a huge catalyst in my recovery!

Julie saw the potential for recovery in me even when I felt lost and hopeless. Julie encouraged me to keep persevering even when I was feeling discouraged. She guided me to an understanding of how deeply the food that we eat affects our well-being. I used to think I ate well, but it’s clear to me now that a lot of what I was eating (and what we’re taught is healthy) was perpetuating my illness. She was very kind while explaining all of this to me. She was not condescending at all! She was very patient. She answered all of my questions and addressed my concerns and my resistance to adopting this new philosophy. She explained things in a way that I could understand and appreciate.

Julie effectively combines a scientific understanding of nutrition with true compassion to create a sustainable, empowering approach to one’s nutrition and lifestyle. I felt very supported along the way and still often think of the advice that she gave to me while I was working with her. Julie helped me to understand that the path to health is not necessarily linear — there are often “ups” and “downs” in recovery. And that’s okay. Just because you have a flareup, doesn’t mean that you won’t be able to recover!

What’s especially great is that Julie taught me the tools to be a self-sufficient person. I don’t need to rely on anyone else to keep me well because I know how to keep myself well now.

Julie also offered sprinklings of empowering mindset exercises (mostly in the form of positive affirmations) that worked in conjunction with the nutritional advice. At the time, I didn’t understand how powerful mindset and positive affirmations truly are to a person’s recovery and well-being. I now understand! Julie was never pushy about this stuff and only offered what I was interested in pursuing. I imagine that she only gives her clients the amount of info/suggestions on this subject that they’re interested in exploring.

I am happy to say that I am totally healthy now! I would still be sick if I hadn’t worked with Julie and changed my diet. Changing my nutritional regime allowed for a tremendous amount of personal healing and growth. I understand myself and my well-being so much more now.

Julie is a truly gifted facilitator of healing! She is so supportive, kind, and knowledgeable. She lives the advice that she provides and supports her clients as they grow and gain the health that they so desire!
