Glimpse: My Personal Story

In my early high school years, I received the diagnosis of PCOS, a term I initially didn't fully comprehend. You might ask, what is PCOS? PCOS, or Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, is a common hormonal disorder that affects people with ovaries. It can cause irregular periods, difficulty getting pregnant, and other symptoms like acne and weight gain. Essentially, it's a condition where hormone levels are out of balance, leading to various health issues.

However, PCOS, isn't just a medical diagnosis for me; it's been a lifelong battle that reshaped my identity and tested my resilience. From the age of 16, I battled with the silent struggles of irregular periods, fatigue, and a multitude of other symptoms that overshadowed my athletic pursuits. Misdiagnosed and misunderstood, I found myself adrift in a sea of uncertainty until I discovered the healing touch of holistic alternatives and healthy nutrition through homeopathic doctors. Through proper guidance, nourishment, and mindful supplementation, I have slowly reclaimed control over my body and my life, emerging stronger and more empowered than ever before and continue to do so.

In life, we're often faced with unexpected challenges, like grief and loss causing one to question so many things. Losing my grandmother in 2022 was a devastating blow. She was my rock, my safe haven. Her passing left me adrift in a sea of emotions—anger, sadness, and a profound sense of loss. Her struggles served as a catalyst for my journey towards self-discovery and empowerment and amidst the darkness, I found a glimmer of hope. A “hummingbird” perched outside my window, a symbol of her presence and everlasting love. In that moment, I knew she was watching over me, urging me to carry on and fulfill my dreams. And so, I vowed to honor her memory by helping myself and others on their journey to wellness.
