I call her Ariana Isabella. She so get's me! 🤣
I love the new template thingy for the Warm Launch. It's kicking my butt into gear. This process has helped me become more clear in my purpose or calling. It's really helped me get a clear picture of my direction. So you want to see my story? Over the weekend I'll get the rest of the weeks posts lined up. Organize my calandar for posts, schedule my classes and GO on Monday.
Most of my adult life, I’ve been quietly curious about how to live healthier.
I’ve always wondered:How did people survive hundreds of years ago? What did they use from nature?How do you clean, cook, and live well without filling your home with chemicals?
I didn’t fully understand it.But I kept searching.
As a young woman, gymnastics left its mark on my back.Later, working in a bakery didn’t help much either.
Eventually I made changes — more vegetables, leaving that job, learning better habits — and I dropped the weight. I felt strong. Energized. Proud of the discipline.
But the back issues never completely disappeared.
There were seasons I pushed through tension and ignored warning signs.Until one season, my body pushed back.
What started as tightness turned into extreme pain. I found myself frozen, tension-filled, nearly bedridden for months.
It didn’t happen overnight.And looking back, it probably could have been avoided.
That season forced me to learn.
I began studying nutrients more seriously.Not the synthetic bargain kind I had tried before — but quality support that helped lower inflammation and rebuild strength.
For the first time, I felt sustained energy instead of just surviving the day.
Along the way, I became what I now call the “back whisperer” of my own journey.
I learned body mechanics.I learned pacing.I learned when to rest and when to strengthen.I learned exercises that helped put me back together again.I learned that chiropractic, massage, and therapy are wonderful — but without daily responsibility on my part, life gets expensive fast.
And yes… sometimes even a sneeze could still throw everything off.
Which makes what happened in 2015 even more meaningful.
A friend introduced me to essential oils during one very miserable, sneezy, foggy spring day in her kitchen.
Within seconds of trying one drop, my head cleared.
That moment opened my eyes again.
It didn’t replace everything I had learned.It expanded it.
Around the same time, I switched from discount-store vitamins to essential oil–infused nutrients. The value made sense — but more importantly, the integration made sense.
Since then, my research hasn’t stopped.
I’ve seen my back grow stronger.I’ve seen digestive support make a difference.I’ve seen everyday struggles — sneezing fits, bug bites, burns, dizziness, fevers, injuries — respond beautifully.And I’ve seen support show up in situations I once thought were untouchable.
For years, I’ve taught oil classes.
But I’ve been quieter than I should have about the deeper parts of my journey — the seasons when I wasn’t strong.
Maybe because I didn’t feel “sciency” enough.Maybe because I wasn’t sure who would believe my before reality.
But lately, I think I’m growing into the idea that…
It’s my calling.
A lifetime arc of curiosity → injury → frustration → discovery → integration.
And now… sharing.
I don’t claim to have perfect answers.
But I do know what I’ve lived.And I know what I’ve seen.
And I’m ready to be more open about it.
