When we think about gut health, digestion often comes to mind. But did you know your gut is like the control center for so much more than breaking down food? It’s deeply connected to your immune system, your energy levels, and even how your body handles inflammation. For those living with autoimmune conditions, gut health can play a massive role in managing symptoms and feeling better overall.
Here’s the fascinating part: around 70% of your immune system is housed in your gut. That means when your gut is balanced and thriving, it has the power to reduce inflammation, regulate immunity, and bring much-needed stability to autoimmune symptoms. On the flip side, an imbalanced gut—think too many processed foods, stress, or poor sleep—can trigger inflammation and make autoimmune symptoms worse.
For me, healing my gut was a game-changer. It didn’t just help with digestion; it shifted my energy, mood, and how I showed up in my day-to-day life. And while it wasn’t always easy (hello, lifestyle changes!), the results were worth it. Healing starts in the gut.
If this resonates with you, I’ve got some exciting news. In 2024, you don’t have to navigate your health journey alone. I’m hosting a workshop specifically for those ready to tackle gut health, support autoimmune wellness, and feel better—physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Together, we’ll dive into setting personalized health intentions and building a sustainable vision that truly works for your life. No one-size-fits-all approaches here—this is about creating a plan that feels doable, not overwhelming.
So, if you’ve been waiting for a sign to prioritize your health, this is it. Let’s make 2025 the year you take control, heal from the inside out, and feel more like yourself again.
✨ You deserve to feel amazing. Let’s make it happen—together.

This is a hearty, flavorful dish that brings together the natural sweetness of roasted sweet potatoes with the savory richness of tender beef and crisp cabbage. This comforting meal is a perfect balance of textures and flavors; earthy, sweet, and savory all in one. Whether you're looking for a quick weeknight dinner or a satisfying weekend meal, this dish is sure to please everyone!
Ingredients
- 2 Sweet Potato (medium, cut into 1/2 inch rounds)
- 2 tbsps Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 tsp Sea Salt (divided)
- 1 lb Extra Lean Ground Beef (from the farm or you can use ground chicken, turkey or even tofu!)
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
- 1 tbsp Coconut Aminos
- 3 cups Green Cabbage (shredded)
- 1 Lime (juiced)
- 1/2 cup Cilantro (chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the sweet potato rounds onto the baking sheet and drizzle the oil all over. Season with half of the salt and toss to combine. Spread out into an even layer. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until browned and cooked through, flipping halfway through.
- While the potatoes are in the oven, heat a large pan over medium heat. Add the beef, breaking it up as it cooks. Season with the remaining salt, garlic powder and onion powder. Stir in the coconut aminos.
- Cook the beef for seven to eight minutes or until cooked through. Stir in the cabbage and cook for another three to four minutes or until the cabbage is cooked to your liking.
- Divide the cooked sweet potato evenly between bowls or plates. Top with the beef and cabbage mixture. Drizzle lime juice and top with cilantro. Enjoy!
Notes:
- Leftovers: Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to three days.
- Serving Size: One serving is approximately two cups.
- Additional Toppings: Top with avocado.
- Short on Time: Use a pre-chopped coleslaw mix instead of cabbage.
- No Ground Beef: Use ground turkey or ground chicken instead.

Let me let you in on a little secret: peppermint isn’t just for freshening your breath—it’s a gut health hero!
Here’s the deal: peppermint contains compounds like menthol, which work to relax the muscles in your GI tract. This helps food move more smoothly through your digestive system and can ease bloating, cramping, and that uncomfortable, too-full feeling we sometimes get after a heavy meal.
Think of peppermint as a gentle, natural digestive aid that supports your body’s process of breaking down fats and other rich foods. It doesn’t force anything; it simply gives your digestive system the boost it needs to feel better faster.
The best part? It’s ridiculously easy to work peppermint into your daily life:
- Sip on peppermint tea after a meal for a soothing digestive reset.
- Add a drop of peppermint essential oil to a glass of water (make sure it’s high-quality and safe for consumption!).
- One small change can make a big difference in how you feel. Just remember, everyone’s digestive system is unique, so listen to your body and see how peppermint works for you.
✨ When it comes to ingesting essential oils, I only recommend Young Living. Their oils are marked safe for consumption, so you can use them confidently.

Imagine this: You’re starting your journey to better gut health, but it feels like you're piecing it all together on your own. There’s no guide, no one to answer the questions that keep popping up, no friend who truly gets the ups and downs of trying to feel better from the inside out.
That’s exactly how I felt when I started working on my gut health. I was completely on my own. There was no roadmap, no one to ask about all the confusing symptoms, and no one who understood the endless trial and error. I was overwhelmed by all the information out there, unsure what to trust, and constantly second-guessing myself.
I honestly wish I’d had a group back then—a supportive space where I could ask questions, celebrate small wins, and get that extra nudge to stay on track. It would have saved me so much frustration (and Googling!).
But here’s what changed everything: I realized I wasn’t alone. Once I found a community of people who understood the struggles of gut health, everything shifted. These were people who got it—who wanted to talk about probiotics, inflammation, and those little daily habits that actually make a difference.
Suddenly, I didn’t feel so isolated. Having a group of like-minded individuals made all the difference. Together, we could share tips, cheer each other on, and even laugh through those awkward, TMI gut-health moments. It wasn’t just me tackling this huge goal by myself anymore; it was us, working toward healthier, happier lives.
If you’re feeling stuck or alone in your gut health journey, I want to encourage you to find your people. Whether it’s an online group, a local meet-up, or even a friend who’s interested in improving their health, having a supportive space can completely transform your experience.
Gut health isn’t a one-size-fits-all journey, but it’s one that’s so much easier (and honestly more fun) when you’re not doing it alone. Let’s build each other up, share what works, and remind ourselves that we’re all in this together. Because feeling good from the inside out? That’s something worth celebrating—together.
