A conversation with Dad.
While most would agree that questioning the tenets of your own belief system is necessary for growth, I can't shake the feeling that my search for the truth looks on some days more like a flat-out rejection of The Truth I've been taught—the same one that's kept me company in my safe little bubble for years. Which leads us back to the idea of faith, and the ability to trust that there's a God who wants me even at my most uncertain.
Why I ditched the birth control pill.
The combination of stress and under-eating in my late teens caused my period to disappear for more than a year, which led to a host of health issues in my 20s (including PCOS and hypothyroidism). To throw fuel on the fire, I was on and off the pill during those critical reproductive years as well. It was only once I quit the pill and learned to support my body’s natural rhythm through cycle syncing that I was able to reach a level of health I felt good about.
How I reversed my PCOS and conceived naturally, part 1.
In today’s post, for the first time ever, I'm opening up about the health obstacles I faced from childhood through my early 20s, when I finally received a diagnosis that paved the way for me to both pursue my passion as an NTP and take back my health once and for all. Hope you enjoy it!
