Our Inspiration - Jodi's Story
This platform was born from my personal journey, from sudden, debilitating illness to self-guided discovery of root causes, recovery, and ultimately to thriving with vibrant health.
Despite my active lifestyle and whole-foods diet, I suddenly found myself plagued by a puzzle of symptoms, leading to chronic illness and becoming bedridden. After two years of exploring Western medicine, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Doctors declared it incurable, offering only toxic medications to manage symptoms.
Refusing to accept that fate, I turned to researching natural healing. Over the next decade, I pieced together my "puzzle," learning how each factor influenced epigenetic expression and that genes can be switched on or off by environment and daily choices.
Along the way, I learned more about epigenetics. I uncovered key influences on my gene expression: strengthening my gut microbiome, processing emotional trauma, and finding relief in restorative yoga. I embraced the nourishing traditional diets of our ancestors, inspired by Weston A. Price and the Weston A. Price Foundation.
The game-changer came when I discovered my histamine intolerance and oxalate toxicity. However, I also discovered that some of my foundational foods like bone broths and fermented foods were exacerbating my histamine-related symptoms. Suddenly overwhelmed, I felt like I couldn't eat anything safely. Resources were scarce, inconsistent, and scattered across sources. It took me ten years of trial, error, and perseverance to achieve full recovery.
In that pursuit, I missed precious moments, especially as a single mother struggling to be fully present for my young child. But I emerged stronger, now proudly claiming "fibroNOalgia!"
This transformation sparked a passion to help others shortcut the process. Starting with wellness coaching, I reflected on the frustration of hunting through endless sources for answers. I knew I had to create a trusted hub where comprehensive healing information, practices, and tools are conveniently available. That vision evolved into Primally Nourished, simplifying recovery into three steps: Discover, Recover, Thrive.
I'm dedicated to empowering you to rebuild your health faster. I hope my story inspires you to explore your healing potential, and with Primally Nourished, your journey is streamlined!
