The Mind-Body Shift began as a way to make sense of what I was living in my own body and to find answers within a fragmented healthcare system as I navigated complex, chronic health conditions. I was driven by a desire to translate the specialized language of science and medicine—the medspeak that so often confuses and overwhelms—into information people can truly understand and meaningfully apply to their own experience.
My search for answers led me through modern science and public health and toward a range of integrative and traditional healing frameworks, which expanded how I understand health, care, and what it means to live well—even in the presence of serious and often debilitating symptoms.
Through The Mind-Body Shift, I explore how we navigate life with chronic illness—facing its realities, while also remembering we are more than our conditions. Health, here, is not defined by the absence of symptoms or a lack of limitations, but by our capacity to stay connected to our true selves, while cultivating purpose and agency, balance and vitality.
