My Story: Healing Chronic Inflammation When My Body Forced Me to Slow Down
For a long time, I believed I was doing “all the right things.” I was a busy pharmacist, raising four kids, pushing through pain, anxiety, and exhaustion —telling myself this was just what midlife looked like. But behind the scenes, my body was quietly waving red flags that I didn’t yet know how to read. I was diagnosed with miserable malalignment syndrome, which led to multiple leg surgeries while I was still in the thick of motherhood. I was navigating chronic pain, inflammation, and anxiety. Like so many women, I was prescribed medications to manage symptoms rather than address the root cause. I took antidepressants, relied on pain control, and kept pushing forward because stopping wasn’t an option. After learning how to walk again, I was forced to confront a hard truth:
I couldn’t out-medicate or out-push a body that was deeply inflamed.
That was the turning point.
Instead of asking, “What can I take to feel better?”
I started asking, “What does my body actually need to heal?”
I began implementing an anti-inflammatory lifestyle, not as a diet, but as a strategy for long-term health, one that worked with my hormones, stress levels, and real life as a mom.
Over time, I focused on four core strategies that changed everything:
• Nourishing my body with anti-inflammatory, macro-balanced nutrition
• Supporting healing with intentional movement, not punishment
• Reducing chronic stress and calming my nervous system
• Creating an environment (especially my kitchen) that made healthy choices easier
The results were profound, and sustainable.
I lost 40 pounds without restriction or extremes.
I was able to discontinue pain and antidepressant medications.
My inflammation and pain decreased.
I healed from surgery, regained strength, and rebuilt confidence in my body.
Most importantly, I stopped feeling like my health was something I was constantly fighting.
Today, I blend my background as a pharmacist, my experience as a mom of four, and my training as an anti-inflammatory women’s nutrition coach to help women do the same, without diet rules, guilt, or overwhelming restrictions.
Because healing isn’t about willpower.
It’s about understanding inflammation, supporting your body, and creating a lifestyle you can actually maintain.
