I’ve spent nearly 30 years helping people get unstuck—first as a holistic chiropractor and now as an author, speaker, and creator of transformative experiences. Along the way, I’ve learned one thing for sure: real healing happens when we stop fighting ourselves and start listening to what our bodies (and our stories) are trying to say.

My newest book, Booze to Balance: A Chill 30-Day Liver-Healing Program (Books That Save Lives, available now for pre-order), takes that idea head-on. It’s not just about quitting or cutting back on alcohol—it’s about having a deeper relationship with our own body. It's about understanding the body’s chemistry, the emotions behind our habits, and the freedom that comes when we shift from numbing out to truly living.

I write for people who are tired of the empty promises of quick fixes and cookie-cutter advice. My books, podcast (Rainbows in the Dark), and projects like Afterwife (living funerals that help people celebrate life before it’s too late) are all about navigating the messy, magical human experience—physically, emotionally, and even existentially.

If you’re trying to change your relationship with your body (or a glass of wine), or simply searching for ways to feel more alive in a world that often feels overwhelming, I’m here for you. My work is designed to help you move forward—on your own terms—with a mix of science, soul, and some laughter to make the journey lighter. 🎩✨
