I’m a wife, a mom, a daughter, a sister and a friend with a passion to help others. Many experiences have shaped who I am but the most recent is why you and I have crossed paths. In 2014 a shocking health event happened with my oldest child. It was during a point in my life when I thought I had conquered the most difficult events one can have once becoming a parent – suffering the loss of four children during different pregnancies. Now I was faced with a more traumatic event as my oldest was on a life-flight to Dallas with a newly diagnosed disease.
From the onset we were encouraged how this is a very manageable disease, not life threatening and one can live a normal life, after all “we have medicine for that”. And, from the onset I was determined to alter the normal outcome of a life being dependent on the latest “medicine” and restore life dependent on the provisions from our Creator. Let’s face it we have a body that functions in magnificent ways… So two years later, after strong encouragement from one of my supporters that has been an imperative part of this journey, I took the plunge to become a health coach and functional medicine practitioner. My hopes are to encourage and guide others to take control of their health and reach their goals of a better outcome.
I am looking forward to our journey together,
Salena
