She shares how most women are radically under-eating protein, why quality matters, and how digestion, stress, and environmental toxins shape what we can absorb. We move through her muscle first philosophy, the...

There are moments when life hands you a topic so heavy that most people avoid it entirely, and yet it’s part of our everyday reality. Cancer is one of those topics.

She shares why cancer is a messenger and not a death sentence, why the body’s...

info_outlineSo many of us walk around carrying symptoms we’ve tried to explain away. The headaches, the screen intolerance, the brain fog, the frustration that hits when the simplest tasks feel harder than they should. I see this often in our practice, and I’ve lived parts of it myself. What most people never realize is how often an old head injury is still directing the show. Your body is brilliant. It remembers everything, including the moments when your brain had to work overtime just to make sense of what your eyes were taking in.
Talking with Dr. Bryce Appelbaum brought so much clarity to this. He explains how vision is really brain function and why concussions always affect the visual system, even when eyesight looks normal. We get into the neuroinflammation piece, the overwhelm that builds when the eye brain connection is stressed, and the ways we learn to compensate without ever knowing we are doing it. I share parts of my own journey too, including the visual challenges I masked for years by sheer force of will.
This conversation brings a lot of hope. Once you understand why your system has been struggling, you can finally see the path forward. Your body remembers how to heal. Let’s unpack this together.

Vision Lives in the Brain – Vision reflects how the brain processes information.

Concussions Often Go Missed – Even mild head impacts disrupt visual brain function.
Compensation Drains Energy – Overworked vision strains mood, digestion, and resilience.
Holistic Rehab Restores Function – Vision therapy and nervous system support rebuild regulation.
Daily Support Helps – Simple visual habits reduce symptoms and improve ease.
