SUPPORT FROM SOMEONE WHO’S WALKED THE PATH
My Story
Meet Josette, MS, CNS®, CN, LDN
As a young adult, I battled disabling chronic migraines, gut dysfunction, depression, anxiety, hormonal imbalances, brain fog, and fatigue. These issues left me bedridden, forced me to quit my job as a journalist, and led me to a breaking point where, at age 25, I attempted to end my life.
Looking back, I realize that my health struggles began early – hospitalized with viral meningitis as a newborn, suffering from colic and jaundice, and later consuming a highly processed, inflammatory diet. A genetic predisposition for migraines only worsened my condition, averaging 25 migraine days per month by age 18. Despite trying countless medications, including Botox injections, my health continued to decline, leaving me feeling hopeless.
In 2011, I discovered Functional Medicine and began piecing together the reasons behind my suffering. Through years of learning combined with a dose of experimentation, I combined Functional Medicine with a variety of holistic resources to successfully heal my migraines, depression, anxiety, hormonal imbalances, fatigue, and gut issues.
