I’m REALLY REALLY REALLY excited to announce that I’m going to start teaching health and wellness classes at the Avani Institute in McMurray, Pa. For my first set of classes I’ve teamed up with 2 local health coaches to create something very special. Tracey Eakin has a very strict, plant based background and Gianna Thomas brings …
I know, I know it’s #MedxMonday, but I couldn’t help but have to share! Today I’m on my way to NYC for a Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis Social Media Summit with Celgene. The summit is packed full of expanding my medical knowledge and my digital presence. I can’t help but feel so honored and blessed …
A friend let me borrow a documentary called Hidden Messages of Water by Dr. Masaru Emoto. It was such great timing because I had JUST bought little tags to put on my glasses which had inspirational quotes on them. Last year I had remembered my health coach telling me to write LOVE on my water bottle …
Stanford Medicine X. 2015 ePatient Applications. You keep seeing my tweets about applying, but what would you be applying for?

Head Up, Heart Strong. That was Matthew Dudley’s message and a key phrase that I’ll always remember. As I sat there watching this live at medx, I had tears in my eyes and chills all over my body. As I sat here at home watching it, I again had chills and was just so overly …
Last October I started my healing journey with food. For months I cut out sugar, gluten, dairy, corn, soy, gmo’s… the list goes on and on. Fast forward a year. I still have not included most of these back in my diet, but I know I need to make a change because my health has …
My Grandpa passed away on September 1st, 2014 of lung cancer. I left his wake to catch my plane out to Stanford to attend Medicine X. When Janet walked out on the stage and gave this ignite talk I was speechless. I had chills, I had tears in my eyes, I had an explosion of …
I’m a HUGE lover of Mind Body Green. I read it everyday and have hundreds of articles saved which I think are great. The following video is from their Revitalize conference and when I watched it I was so enthralled. It’s a great interview with Dr. Amy Myers founder of Austin’s UltraHealth. (Yes, I’ve already …
