My Story of Loss, Healing, and Hope
I’ll never forget the day the doctor told me, “You have a genetic mutation called MTHFR.” I blinked. What even is that? And why did it matter?
At that point, I had already walked through the heartbreak of multiple miscarriages… 10, to be exact. Also, can we all agree that the word “miscarriage” sucks? It makes me feel shame and disappointment towards my body. Anywho, I had experienced more grief and confusion than I ever thought possible. My body felt broken. My faith was stretched. And the answers were few and far between.
But that moment, that diagnosis, was a turning point.
MTHFR is a genetic mutation that affects how your body processes folate and detoxifies. And while it’s common (affecting up to 60% of people), it’s rarely talked about. Most women are handed a prenatal with folic acid and sent on their way. But for those with MTHFR, folic acid can actually cause more harm than good. It builds up in the body and blocks proper nutrient absorption, leading to inflammation, hormone disruption, and in my case… repeated loss.
Once I learned what MTHFR was and how it impacted my hormones, pregnancy, and overall health, I started to dig deeper. I realized that my body was not failing me… it was fighting to survive in a world full of toxins, stress, and synthetic ingredients it couldn’t process.
So I began to make changes:
– I swapped toxic products for hormone-safe ones
– I changed how I ate and supplemented
– I began to intentionally rest, detox, and surrender this journey to God
And most of all… I stopped trying to fix myself and started learning how to support my body the way God designed it to function.
That’s when everything changed.
Now, I help other women navigate the same journey with grace, with truth, and with practical tools that make a difference.
If you’ve ever struggled with:
- Miscarriage or infertility
- Unexplained symptoms like fatigue, anxiety, or brain fog
- Hormonal imbalances that no one seems to understand
- Or just a deep sense that something’s off…
…you’re not alone. And you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.
I put together a free MTHFR Protocol Guide with the exact steps I took to begin healing, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. It includes information I wish I would have known sooner, supplement tips, toxin-free swaps, faith-based encouragement, and more.

Friend, healing is possible. Your body is not your enemy. And your story isn’t over.
