About Patience
Hi, my name is Patience. I'm the owner of this site, and so excited you're here and want to improve your health! Taking this journey of health is not only a gift to yourself, but a gift to everyone in your life. When you are healthy and happy, the impact tends to ripple.
​
Why am I a health coach? I've worked in critical care as a nurse for over 5 years, and the longer I work there, the more drawn I am to prevention. Initially, I started school to become a Nurse Practitioner, which I am still working toward, but I started this business as well because I want to help people thrive in their day to day life now. As I've started coaching, my passion for health care has revived. I am excited and thrilled to be here and helping people achieve their health goals, have more energy, and apply knowledge and practices that cost little to nothing to bring wellness into their lives. Wellness is simple. It is not a trend, in fact it's been around since the world began. The tricky part is sorting through what wellness means for us in this highly commercialized health world we live in!

My Health Journey
Although I have been generally well, my health journey has not been simple. In the world of healthcare, it seemed like the repercussions of COVID era days took forever to end. Staffing was a major issue at the hospital I was working at, so, when I had the opportunity to move to a well staffed ICU, I did. What happened was so unexpected and confusing for me! When I was given a sane work environment, my body finally snapped. I was no longer was under as much stress, and my body decided it was time to heal. Now. To my alarm, it started to shut down. Burnout became very real for me, and it was intense. I was also having strange health issues no one could explain - red, flaking, burning eyelids, painful pimples, brain fog, recurrent yeast infections, bloating, and extreme fatigue.
I was bounced around the healthcare system without answers. I was offered birth control for the pimples and recurrent yeast infections (that made me mad). I was given a strong ointment for my skin that gave me flu like symptoms. I was told I had rosacea and that I would have to figure out why I have rosacea on my own. Even my primary care doctor, after I explained my symptoms to her, just looked at me with a confused expression and told me that she hoped I would figure it out.
​
If you are frustrated with our current health care system, I get it. Me too. Even as I appreciate modern medicine, and am studying to be a nurse practitioner, I desire to ultimately allow my clients to experience life transformation through health and lifestyle practices.
​
For me, it took a friend telling me "what you're dealing with sounds like candida" to find my answers. I went the natural route for healing, and thanks to God, I am feeling so much more like myself today! Not without also, sadly, developing pre-diabetes along the way! That is now also reversed and my relationship with food and stress has changed in an life-invigorating way, which I now teach to others.
​
My healing journey took me over three years. I don't want that for you. I want you to find your answers, to get where you need to be, to enjoy life, to fulfill your purpose. That's why I'm here. Can we talk? Can we explore what's going on with your health together and find some lasting solutions for you?
