​

It was 2019, I had spent 20 years teaching health and wellness.

 

I knew the body, I knew movement, I understood nutrition and I believed in the power of fitness to transform lives.

 

Then my own health collapsed — and everything I thought I knew was put to the test.

​

At my worst, I weighed just 80 pounds. I had been in diapers for several years and could barely walk. The person who had dedicated his life to helping others move and heal was struggling to do either.

​

I tried everything — specialized diets, supplements, medication. Nothing worked. The answers I was looking for weren't in the places I had always been told to look.

​

Then I discovered something that changed everything.

 

I learned about the deep connection between autoimmune disease and nervous system dysregulation — and how the body simply cannot heal when it's trapped in a constant state of stress and inflammation. ( fight or flight ) 

 

That realization sent me down a new path, one that led me to lymphatic therapy, vagus nerve stimulation breathwork, somatic movement, fascia releasing, and nervous system regulation techniques that traditional fitness certifications had never considered.

​

Slowly, I began to heal.

​

Once I found my way back, I knew I couldn't keep what I had learned to myself. I had spent 20 years in fitness — and it took hitting rock bottom to discover the missing piece that so many people with autoimmune conditions desperately need.

​

That's why I created Heal 30. Not as a fitness program, but as a road map back to your body — built from lived experience, grounded in science, and designed specifically for people who have been let down by every other approach.

​

Because if I could find my way back from 80 pounds and barely being able to walk — I know there's a path forward for you too.
