My Story
Healthy, Not Medicated was born from frustration and a strong desire for change. My personal health journey began in 2016 without a plan, support, or direction. I was exhausted, breathless, experiencing leg swelling, migraines, severe insomnia, and a sense of hopelessness, especially after witnessing my mother succumb to cancer. As a healthcare provider, I was disheartened by the limited options and resources available, which motivated me to take action.
I revamped my diet, focused on hydration, and incorporated regular movement. Within a week of detoxing, I felt a surge of energy and improved sleep. A few weeks later, I noticed weight loss, which fueled my determination. By the end of two months, people were asking about my transformation, and I lost nearly 100 pounds over the next year, feeling better than I did in my 20s while maintaining these lifestyle changes.
Through this journey, my passion for helping others transform their lives emerged. Frustrated by the lack of nutritional training among healthcare providers, I sought solutions and discovered root cause, functional, and integrative medicine.
Mamabear Essentials Wellness is dedicated to achieving health, healing, and wholeness. We believe in addressing the root cause of health issues rather than relying on a "pill for every problem" approach, supporting the body to function optimally.
I firmly believe in the body's incredible ability to heal itself.
