Hi! I’m Izzy. I’m 58. Welcome to my blog.
I’m a 1966 Fire Horse and I ‘ve had four babies to challenge my body weight.
I've spent the last 28 years cracking the code to staying healthy and happy… with many challenges along the way!
How my journey began
My journey to a healthier, happier me started way back when I was 30, just after my first child. Let’s rewind a bit.
Teenage me battled epic acne. We’re talking countless trips to dermatologists who handed out the usual suspects: antibiotics, retinoids, Accutane, even the pill! It seemed better but… then came pregnancy at 30, and because I stopped taking things to keep the symptoms away, my face turned into a full-blown war zone—boils under the skin, spots everywhere. Yikes.
That’s when I decided, “There has to be a better way.” So, I dived in headfirst, starting with homeopathy. And wow, what a mindset shift that was! I learned that suppressing symptoms is like sweeping dust under the rug. The real magic happens when you heal the root cause!
Two years into homeopathic treatment, my skin finally started looking normal (cue happy dance!). But I wasn’t done yet—I was on a mission.
I sought out naturopaths, biochemists, anti-aging doctors—you name it. I wasn’t just their patient; I became their student! Some were even kind enough to hand me medical books to dive deeper into the science.
That was just the start…
I started to change things slowly. I didn’t have the routine I have today.
But if I was starting at my age now, I would rather make a more drastic change if I wanted to see a difference. It’s impossible to be happy if you feel rubbish. You don’t need to waste time with the mistakes I made…All that information is right here. 😉
Together in the journey.
Cheers!
I’ve tackled insomnia that won’t quit, migraines that crash the party, that fuzzy head feeling, stress overload, menopause, juggling parents and kids (multitasking level: expert). And oh, the list doesn’t stop there!
Throw in histamine overload, mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), SIBO… and let’s not forget the mysterious ones still waiting for their spotlight. Some of these are so new, even science is just starting to figure them out.
I share my successful attempts at making life run a little smoother. I’ll spare you the details of the unsuccessful ones!
Expect laughter, lessons, and the occasional "well, that didn’t go as planned!" moment. Let’s figure this life thing out together!
