About this Service

My goal is to be your partner and guide throughout this next step and journey.

We will make the plan that works for you and debunk myths along the way. We’ll start by defining your baseline: where is your starting point? This will give you clarity on where you are now and how to meet you there.

I will then create a personalized protocol for you grounded in food, body, and mind: including what to eat and when, your sleep, your movement and physical activity, and how you manage stress for starters. I will work with you each step of the way with weekly calls and communication in-between calls too.

Throughout it all, I will help you navigate the healthcare system, including visiting doctors and specialists, and advocating for yourself.

My approach is to keep it simple. I don’t like adding a ton of supplements or foods — instead, I’ll meet you where you are. We’ll focus on simplification and elimination to see where you feel your best and go from there. Listen, it may be a balance of medication with diet and lifestyle changes that help you. Don’t be discouraged, because both are extremely important.

About this Lister

I remember sitting on the cold physician’s table over a decade ago after so many blood tests and doctor’s visits, and still not having any answers. The doctor walked in and told me that she had a diagnosis for me – she told me I had an autoimmune disease (Crohn’s Disease, later Ulcerative Colitis) and would have to take medication for the rest of my life.

What?! How could that be? I asked her so many questions but felt like I didn’t get any answers. I was so sick and didn’t feel well. Everything felt off, like my body was out of whack.

I felt alone and isolated, like no one else could relate to what I was going through.

I applied my engineering problem solving to my own life — I went to more doctors, I kept asking more questions, and finally got an answer that actually helped me feel better when one doctor suggested that I look at my diet.

This moment changed the trajectory of my life.

I learned how to feel my best through making changes in food, body, and mind.

That’s what led me to start Well Gurl. I love helping people have aha moments when it comes to their health, well-being, and performance and have over 15 years of corporate experience.

I find so much joy in 1/1 coaching and group programs and workshops.

Background and Expertise

Welcome to Well Gurl! I’m on a mission to help women feel their absolute best.

My "credentials" for my coaching service have been learning everything the hard way and making myself take the next steps.

When I was 20 years old, I was given a lifelong diagnosis and told I needed to be on medication for the rest of my life. Little did I know this moment would completely change my life.

Instead of feeling like the victim, I learned to take control of my health and become my own patient advocate. I learned how to tell my story and advocate for what I knew I needed.

I went to so many different doctors and specialists and had dozens of blood tests, stool tests, and diagnostics. The medicine didn’t make me feel better so I kept searching for answers.

At the same time, I was navigating corporate roles in the healthcare industry.

Now after 15+ years of living with an autoimmune disease, I’ve learned through trial and error, multiple doctors, reading and self-learning, following research and constantly being curious.

It all comes down to food, body, and mind — obvious but not easy or “sexy”, or we would all be doing it. Through eating whole foods, regular movement, good sleep, managing stress, and getting outdoors, I’ve taken back control of my life.

I now know what it means to be my healthiest self because I’m my happiest and I have energy for all the moments in life that matter.

I want to help you do the same.
