Your Blood Sugar Is Telling You 
Something

I help midlife women with insulin resistance, prediabetes, and metabolic dysfunction understand your blood sugar, your metabolic health, and  — the data your doctor never showed you.

As a Registered Nurse and health coach, I help midlife women understand insulin resistance, balance blood sugar, and take control of their metabolic health — through glucose literacy, CGM data, and macro-balanced eating. This is the education most women never get from their doctor. Not medical advice — just a nurse who lived it herself.

WHAT I TEACH

Everything Your Doctor
Didn't Have Time to Explain

From blood sugar basics to macro-balanced eating to CGM data — the education most midlife women never got.

CGM & Personal Data

A continuous glucose monitor shows you in real time what your blood sugar is actually doing — every 5 minutes, all day. I wear one daily and share my personal data so you can see exactly how food, timing and eating order change everything. Your labs are one data point. Your CGM is the full picture.

Macro-balanced eating

The simple way to build every meal so your energy stays steady, cravings disappear, and your body actually burns fat. It starts with three things: PFF.

Strength & metabolism

After 40, women lose muscle every year. It's the hidden reason weight sticks, energy fades, and blood sugar gets harder to manage. Building it back changes everything.

Strength training is the foundation of every FASTer Way round — & it is where I see the biggest changes in midlife women.

Fasting done right

Intermittent fasting can work beautifully — or backfire completely. Here's what makes the difference, and the one mistake most women make when they break their fast.

Hormone health

Perimenopause, stress, and blood sugar are all talking to each other. Understanding how they connect is what finally makes everything click.

I spent 3 years doing everything right — macros, strength training, fasting — and in 2025 was diagnosed with insulin resistance anyway.

As a nurse, I thought I knew. I didn't.

A CGM showed me what my labs had missed for years — and it changed everything about how I eat, fast, and teach. I'm not here as the expert with all the answers. I'm here learning alongside you — and sharing everything I discover along the way. 🩺

The Tool That Changed Everything

I wore a CGM for the first time in 2025 and saw what three years of healthy living never showed me. My blood sugar was spiking and crashing all day — even on my best days. The CGM did not lie. And it changed everything about how I eat, coach and teach.
