Kristy’s Passion
Kristy’s journey in health began in the not-for-profit healthcare sector after graduating from Texas A&M University, but it wasn’t until she became a mother that she truly discovered the power of alternative approaches to wellness. When her daughter suffered from unexplained eczema and fatigue, and conventional medical tests provided no answers, Kristy turned to nutrition. The changes were transformative, and her daughter recovered.
A few years later, Kristy faced her own health crisis. Years of chronic pain worsened to the point that doctors mentioned conditions like fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. Frustrated with the lack of solutions, Kristy once again sought out alternative approaches. Through research and a carefully designed protocol, she experienced a significant reduction in her pain and fatigue. Her improvement was so profound that she was able to pursue a master’s degree in holistic nutrition, raise her children, and work full-time—even as a single mother. This personal recovery drives her passion to help others find their own path to healing.
