About Me
Hi, Iām a mom of two spirited, beautiful girls ā and like many families, our journey hasnāt been a straight line.
It started with what we thought was a simple speech delay. We reassured ourselves that kids develop at different paces, but concerns grew. By preschool, her teacher suggested she might be showing signs of Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). That word alone sent us into late-night spirals of worry. Could it be autism? After all, research shows that ADHD, ODD, and autism share overlapping traits like impulsivity, social challenges, and emotional regulation struggles.
For years, we navigated testing, second opinions, and endless uncertainty. Finally, at age 8, my daughter was officially diagnosed with ADHD. In some ways, it was a relief to have clarity; in others, it marked the beginning of a new chapter of trial and error with medications. Each prescription came with hopeā¦ and its own side effects ā appetite changes, sleep disruption, mood swings. While medication is a clinically validated and often necessary tool, it wasnāt the whole answer for us.
Iāve always believed in the value of both holistic and pharmaceutical medicine. It shouldnāt have to be either/or. Alongside our doctorās care, I dug into nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle strategies that have been studied for ADHD support ā from antioxidants like sulforaphane (PNAS, 2014), to nutrients like omega-3s, NAC (PubMed, 2012), and CoQ10 (PMC, 2014).
Through persistence (and more than a few tears), we found a regimen that provided profound support. Some days, my daughter now goes without medication ā and we notice very little difference. Sheās calmer, more focused, and more herself. Our family finally feels like weāre not just managing symptoms ā weāre thriving.
Thatās why I started this endeavor. Because I know what it feels like to sit in a doctorās office with more questions than answers. I know the exhaustion of watching your child struggle while you search for hope. And I know the quiet joy when something finally makes a difference.
This isnāt just a business for me. Itās a mission ā to help other parents discover tools, knowledge, and community. Because our kids deserve more than to ājust get through the day.ā They deserve to thrive.
