I like Starbucks. I like the vibe. I like the service. And yeah…I like the coffee. I didn’t always. Thought it was too strong. But back then, I didn’t exactly drink coffee. Warning: Coffee-snob sentence coming up! I’d have coffee with a flavored creamer […]

A Lesson in Celiac Advocacy

June 30, 2016 | 33 Comments

Breathing. The key to life. Get an email from a client that makes you upset? Don’t respond right away. Breathe. Someone trolling you online? Don’t engage. Breathe. Someone makes fun of your autoimmune disease? Don’t fly off the handle (yet). Breathe. I learned this […]

Who I am. And who I'm not.

Who I am. And who I'm not.

I AM someone who's been gluten-free since 2007 due to a diagnosis of severe celiac disease. I'm someone who can steer you in the right direction when it comes to going gluten-free. And I'm someone who will always give you the naked truth about going gluten free.

I AM NOT someone who embraces this gluten-free craziness. I didn’t find freedom, a better life or any of that other crap when I got diagnosed. With all due respect to Hunter S. Thompson, I found fear and loathing of an unknown world. But if I can share my wisdom, tell my stories and make the transition easier on you, I’ve done my job.
