  • Résumé

  • The Go-to Podcast for Women Who Want to Clean Up their Lifestyle & Get Control of their Health! Do you ever wish your health didn’t dictate your day? Are you tired of being tired all the time, or is pain holding you back from enjoying your time with your family? Would you like to manage your symptoms holistically but don’t know where to begin? I’m Penny. I am a mom, wife, Occupational Therapist, and past Pharmaceutical Rep with a strong faith. For 25 years, I battled through debilitating Crohn’s Disease. I took all the medicine and did all the surgeries that stole so much of my time with my family but never truly healed me. I was tired of feeling bad all the time, missing out on my kids’ activities, not being able to eat freely, and spending my life in doctor’s appointments. I finally realized if I was going to get healthy, I needed to open my stubborn eyes to alternative solutions. I found strategies that worked and gave me incredible relief. I embraced a new lifestyle that actually made sense physically, spiritually, and emotionally. I researched how perfectly our bodies work with plants and found a healthy lifestyle that made my health less of a burden to my family and aligned beautifully with my faith and medical training. I was tired of feeling bad all the time, unable to eat, missing out on my kids’ activities, and spending my life in doctor’s appointments. If I was going to get healthy, I needed to open my mind to alternative solutions that I once thought were ridiculous. With some research, I found strategies that worked and provided incredible relief. I slowly embraced a new holistic lifestyle that made sense with how I learned the body worked, how it so beautifully aligned with my faith, and how our bodies were truly created to heal. I have a unique perspective, having been trained in the medical model. I encourage medications to ensure my patients have a comfortable therapy session. I peddled one of the top acid-reducing pills as a pharmaceutical rep, and I took every medication under the sun for my illness. I am far from perfect. I am not a die-hard health nut or exercise guru, although I believe in a good balance. I will always be a work in progress and do not profess to know everything. I’m just a mom who understands how the body works and loves to read a good science journal in my spare time. I like facts and testimonies, but most importantly, I want results. I have done a 180 by opening my mind to the benefits or harm of what goes on in and around my body. I have never thrown out the food in my pantry or pills in my medicine cabinet, but I do love learning how to read labels with fresh eyes each day. When it’s time for a refill, I replace a potentially harmful product with a quality product. I aim for every step to be a step in the right direction. Small, achievable steps are more likely to lead to success than dramatic actions that cannot be sustained over time. In each episode of Becoming Natural, I hope to share a piece of my story and tips and tricks I have learned to help me make better future health decisions. In this podcast, I’ll share with you: -simple food swaps -How do you eliminate harmful household chemicals (and save money!)? -when you can use plants as medicine -how emotions (good and bad) play a massive role in your health -the incredible value of preventative health -how my faith played a role in my healing journey -and so much more! I couldn’t believe these simple steps to whole-body wellness made such a difference in my broken body. If you are ready to live clean in a dirty world, follow me and never miss an episode of Becoming Natural. Thank you so much for hopping on, and let’s see where it leads us!
