We're in the middle of a massive movement and most people don't even know it. Every single day, 6,000 women in the U.S. enter menopause. That's over 2 million women a year, and by 2030, that's more than 1.2 billion women worldwide. So here's the thing, most of these women feel exhausted, bloated, anxious, disconnected from themselves, and the medical system is Doctors are handing out prescriptions and quick fixes, and no one is helping women heal from the root cause of their issues.

So join me, click the link to come watch this webinar. It might be the one thing that really moves the needle for you in this next— Season. I can't wait to see you in there. What if I told you your current medical problem, your diagnoses, your symptoms, that they're actually a blessing in disguise and they are the answer to a healthy, thriving future? Seriously, we aren't looking at this in the right way. I know I wasn't. So I was looking to the white coats to help me when I was facing physical burnout, chronic injuries requiring back surgery, my uncontrolled Hashimoto's thyroid disease, my Raynaud's circulation problem, my chronic irritable bowel syndrome, my lifelong depression, my reflux and heartburn issues. You name it, I had it. And I really thought that conventional medicine was the answer. I was on multiple medications and I was a doctor myself, so why wouldn't I believe that was the answer? I was looking at all of those issues in the wrong way. I was focusing on them as my destiny, as my future, as something that I had to accept and live with and manage. Have you ever been told, like, we'll just manage depression, we'll manage your diabetes, we'll manage your weight? These are lies that are being perpetuated by conventional medicine. And they don't mean any harm. I didn't mean any harm when I was in that world and practicing as a conventional OB-GYN. It's all I knew. I was a well-meaning doctor, but the tools I had in my toolbox were honestly birth control pills to manage your hormone issues or surgery to remove the offending organ. That is not the answer. And I know that you clicked on this and you're watching because you're struggling. Maybe you haven't been able to release the weight. Or keep it off. It keeps coming back. Maybe you're not sleeping. Maybe you just don't have any energy. You don't want to get out of bed. You don't want to participate in life. Or maybe you're just in chronic pain all the time, and you're being told it's you're just getting old. It's just part of aging. It's a hormonal change. There's nothing we can do about it. Like we give all these reasons, and you as the patient. Just accept it because you don't realize there's any other way. So I'm so excited that you're here because I'm going to show you that there is another way to live. That was my life and my story and my identity 10 years ago, but that's no longer who I am or how I live. I am now disease-free. I have a very healthy body. I don't have any more back issues. I avoided a second back surgery, thank you very much, with rods and screws. I am off Any depression medication. My bowels function normally. I am the healthiest I have ever been in my life, and I'm about to turn 50. So yay! Like, it's amazing. And I want to share the secret, what I figured out of what you need to do to stop managing these symptoms and these diseases and take back control of your health and actually thrive and feel amazing. I promise you, it's all possible. What I learned during my journey through all my trials and tribulations is that we're looking for quick fixes. We're expecting some miracle diet or some trend to help us. Like right now, it's the injection weight-loss drugs. They must be the answer to my problems that I've had all of these years, and it's just not the case. So when I was laid up in bed for a week straight with my second back injury and I couldn't move, I started reading the Bible. I came across 1 Corinthians 6, verse 19 and 20. Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you received from God? You are not your own. You were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your body. That rocked my world. I was treating my body as a garbage can. I was putting in whatever I could to sustain my energy, to get me through the day. I wasn't thinking about nourishing my body. I was thinking about surviving and just getting through or feeding my cravings because I was addicted to sugar and gluten and all and dairy and all of the things. And so wasn't until I was laying in that bed and I couldn't move. My husband was carrying me to the bathroom to use the toilet. That's pretty much how I was functioning. And I realized that I had been fasting unexpectedly for over 4 days. I was in a state of major healing and transformation unknowingly, and God started to reveal to me the truth about my body and about my patients' bodies and how I had been trained and taught to manage disease. And he showed me the truth. The truth is you have everything you need inside your body to heal and thrive. Your body was created with amazing innate intelligence to heal. If you cut your arm open, it will heal shut unless you get infected, you don't keep it clean, and something else happens. But your body innately is always in a state of repair and restoration. So if we can put our focus on healing and restoration instead of managing disease, Everything will start to shift. Okay, so I started incorporating intermittent fasting and my hormones came into balance. The inflammation on my thyroid calmed down. My thyroid stopped being attacked. My irritable bowel syndrome calmed down. I started asking God for guidance. I started reading a scripture every day and meditating on it and taking the time to hear from him his plan for me. Your will, not mine, God. And what he showed showed me was so profound. He showed me that in order to transform your body, you have to first transform your mind. And I knew this because when I looked up Romans 12:2 in my Bible to remind myself of that scripture, I had underlined it 20 years before when I had my baby at 17 years old. That's right, I'm a high school dropout, teen mom turned triple board-certified physician. And that scripture is what got me through medical school and all those hardships. It says, do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. So I always knew that I had to do things differently. I couldn't follow the status quo. That was how I was going to fulfill my purpose in life. But I got so entrenched in the broken medical system and so brainwashed because I was in it all day long. All I saw was disease and sickness, and I never saw health and wellness. So I, I had a very biased opinion about how our bodies should function and live. And God showed me that is not the truth. The truth is you need to renew your mind Get it back on me, and show women what their body is actually capable of by doing it yourself first. So through all of this, I went on to heal myself. I found the world of functional medicine. I gave up conventional medicine. I gave up being an OB-GYN. I used to do four to six surgeries every week. Now I do no surgeries, and I actually heal thousands of women, and I help guide them. For their own incredible transformations. And so today I'm going to share with you my Faith It method that was developed out of my trials and my adversities and tribulations, everything I struggled with. And I'm so, so grateful for all of that struggle because it led me to this point in my life. It led me to this amazing healthy body, to this transformed mind, and to Getting to help you right now, I wouldn't take that back for anything in the world. I would love for you to feel the same about your current issue. Do you have a breast cancer diagnosis? Are you facing a hysterectomy because your periods are so horrendous? Do you have that chronic depression or anxiety that is just held you captive and really preventing you from showing up as the amazing woman that you know deep inside that you should be showing up as? Like whatever it is, I want you to faith it instead of faking it. Okay, so I'm going to teach you how to faith it. This method is incredible. It's what I teach in my Fast to Faith 40-day program. We do an online program. I wrote the book about it. We have a Fast to Faith Coaching Academy because we teach women how to be faith-based health coaches and teach other women this method and my other coaching proprietary methods because it works. This will help you reclaim your health and your life. It's going to shift everything. When my patients do this program, their husbands start to do it with them. They, they change how they interact with their kids and what they feed their kids and teach their kids. And like, it's a beautiful ripple effect that goes out and really transforms everybody in your sphere. So I promise you, you do have that much influence. You really, really do. So I invite you to just accept that. Say, "Wow, you're right. God has given me so much ability to influence the people in my life, to be in control of my health. Let me lean in and just give this a try." So that is what I want for you. So let's go over it really quick. The Faith It Method is an acronym, stands for. Fasting for focus, asking God for guidance, inking it for clarity, thanking God in advance, and hearing God's word for you, and then initiating action and trusting his timing. Those pieces are going to move the needle for your health and your life, I promise you. So when you fast for focus, you really give your body time to start doing that restoration and repairing because our resources are no longer being used to digest and break down food and absorb food and do all of that stuff. We get to go and repair and regenerate. We start going into autophagy, which is like deep cellular cleaning for healing. It's an incredible piece of the Fast to Faith program, but it really does work. A is asking God for guidance. So if you sit and you meditate on one scripture each morning, this is called the practice of Lectio Divina. You read one scripture and then you ask God to talk to you and tell you what this scripture is trying to say to you. Because the truth is, the Bible is the living, nourishing word of God. He wants to speak to you right now in your current circumstance about everything that you're dealing with, and he will give you the solution. He will show you the way. So asking him, getting into that scripture meditation, it's so powerful. The women who do this in the Fast to Faith program, it's a game changer. I used to run fasting programs without the faith piece, and women would lose weight and feel good. And then when it was over, they went back to their old ways. When you incorporate scripture and you invite God into that relationship, into that journey, everything shifts. You actually transform into the woman that you want to be. And then you need to ink it. You need to write it down because everything going on in your mind is a bunch of gobbledygook. It's just around there spinning and spinning, playing, repeating. Repeating and you're not getting anywhere. You have to get it out of your mind onto paper for the clarity to start showing up. And this can be a really powerful piece of your journey. And then you thank God in advance, because if you get into an attitude of gratitude and you start thanking him before it's even done, then you're going to start to see the fruits of that faith and that trusting. If you're constantly focused on worrying and don't tell me you can't meditate, because if you're a worrier, you're meditating on all the probable things that could potentially happen, all the worrying. That's a form of bad meditation. So you can meditate on good things and believe for good things. It's just a shift in your mindset and a practice. So you thank him before it's done. Thank you that I'm releasing this weight. Thank you that you are filling me full of energy. Thank you that you're healing my body from this disease. Thank you that you're removing the cancer and just believe that it's done until it's done. Then you need to hear God's word. So you need to actually take 5 minutes of quiet time, no distractions, and listen to what he has to say for you. Ask him, what do you want from me? Why are you giving me this symptom? Why is this showing up in my life? What am I doing that I'm not realizing that you can help me shift and change? And I promise you, he wants to be in this relationship with you. He will show up and he will let you know. He will show you the truth about yourself. And then we initiate action because God is not a genie in a bottle. You can't just rub the bottle and pray for your wishes and expect miracles to happen. You have to be an active participant. You have to start showing up, inking it down. Down, making different food choices, moving your body, doing everything you know that you should be doing, right? And then you have to trust God's timing. Trust his timing, because what you may be asking for, he can't give you right now. He needs to teach you another lesson. He needs to remove someone from your life. He needs to bring in someone else into your life. He sees the bigger picture that you don't see. So you need to trust that God is making a way. He's making all the crooked places straight. He is trying to make everything come out for your good. If you trust that and know that at the cellular level, you will have a beautiful, amazing, peaceful life. Okay, so I encourage you, try the Faith It method. For a week, you will start to shift. You will see your body differently. You will see your relationships differently. You will start showing up as the better version of you that you know that you want to be, that you're capable of being. All of the things—it's that powerful. Ask God to do amazing things in you. Ask Him to renew your mind. Ask Him to shift your health. And then trust that it's going to happen and get into action. Okay, I want all of this for you. We could go so deep into all of this in the Faith It program, all the things, but I wanted to give you some action steps that you could start doing on your own today. And another verse that I want to share with you is 2 Corinthians 12:9: God's power is made perfect in weaknesses. So he wants to shine out in your life. He wants to be glorified and show everybody how you overcame something with his help. So don't look at his— at your weakness or these issues or these struggles as something that you cannot overcome. God wants you to press forward and trust him and glorify him and show the world that you overcame it. You released that weight. You shifted your mindset. You repaired your marriage, whatever it is, because you partnered with God. You asked him to be part of the journey, and his strength is what shifted you and got you the glory. Okay, so I am praying for all of this for you. And just remember, you know, Life is a journey. We have to not worry about the destination. We have to enjoy every moment of the journey. But you have way more power than the medical establishment wants you to believe. The answers are not in the white coat. Everything you have is already inside of you and in the Bible, in the living, nourishing word. So get in there, start believing for changes. And in order to renew your body, you have to renew your mind, right? And I'm just going to leave you with this. Jeremiah 29:11. For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future. So focus on that. Meditate on that scripture, Jeremiah 29:11, all day long. God, show me the plans you have for me. Show me the future. Let me start taking action and living as that woman that I want to be in the future. Let me live into her right now. What is she doing? Help me to do that, Lord. And then thank him in advance. Please let me know if this helped you.
