If you are helping a loved one with dementia or neurodegeneration to follow the RCP, I would love to support you. Implementing the RCP for someone who may not fully understand or communicate their experiences can be challenging, especially when you’re still learning the protocol. I can assist you in creative ways to implement the protocol and other lifestyle modifications to improve your quality of life and reduce symptoms.

Undoing decades of brain inflammation is a slow process, so having a guide who has experienced the rollercoaster of neurodegenerative illness can be invaluable on this journey.

In 2019 my mum was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia. Every medical intervention we tried only worsened her symptoms. I spent much of ‘the COVID years’ down rabbit holes searching for solutions. I dove deep into researching what causes brain degeneration and how to alleviate symptoms like anxiety, insomnia, and constipation.

Initially, we saw positive cognitive results with functional medicine, but my mum’s physical fatigue and weakness continued to worsen.

When I discovered Morley Robbins and the Root Cause Protocol, I felt that I had finally arrived the bottom of the rabbit hole. I found numerous studies demonstrating how an imbalance between copper and iron wreak havoc on the brain. I learned how unprocessed emotions coupled with an imbalance of key minerals in the body creates a chain of events that lead to oxidative stress, inflammation, and ultimately a disease state. I also had a lot of unlearning to do as functional medicine promotes high doses of Vitamins B, C & D, and Zinc for brain and nervous system health.

Now, with my mum following the RCP and other supportive interventions, her cognitive decline has stabilized, and her mobility is slowly improving..

My journey into holistic health began 20 years ago after losing my dad to cancer. I learned that the body has a remarkable ability to heal itself if given the right conditions and enough time. Yet, it has always felt like a big piece of the puzzle was missing. Why do we need so many supplements and remedies to be healthy? Why do we get sick in the first place? The RCP provides evidence-based answers to these questions.

I have 23 years of experience as a Massage Therapist and wellness industry educator. 11 years ago I co-founded Tribe, a Healing Arts Community. Tribe supports wellness professionals in private practice through an online membership, and business education, and provides shared therapy and studio space in Chicago, IL

I am passionate about sharing information that empowers others, whether that is on a personal healing journey, or in being a successful holistic practitioner.
