Understanding what your body is actually asking for

If you’ve been feeling depleted, foggy, wired-but-exhausted, or just not quite like yourself… you’re not imagining it.

And no — the answer usually isn’t
“just move more,” “reduce stress,” or “everything looks normal.”

Many women spend years guessing their way through supplements, diets, and protocols hoping something will finally click.

But guessing rarely brings clarity. Testing does.

The Mineral Foundations Sessions are designed to help you stop guessing and start understanding what’s actually happening inside your body.

Because minerals quietly influence nearly every system we rely on every day — energy production, nervous system signaling, hormone communication, stress resilience, and hundreds of enzymatic reactions that keep the body functioning as designed.

When those foundations begin running low, the body adapts.

And those adaptations often show up as symptoms long before anything looks “wrong” on standard lab work.

This offering combines HTMA mineral testing, a detailed health intake, and 2 60 minute personalized consultation sessions to help identify your unique mineral patterns and begin rebuilding those foundations thoughtfully.

Not with guesswork. With insight and YOUR data.

What this experience is designed to give you

• clarity around how your body may currently be functioning
• insight into mineral patterns that influence energy and stress resilience
• a personalized strategy for rebuilding mineral reserves
• a more grounded starting point for supporting your health moving forward

For some women, rebuilding mineral foundations alone leads to meaningful shifts in how they feel day to day.

For others, mineral patterns reveal clues that help guide the next layer of deeper investigation.

Either way, it replaces uncertainty with informed direction.

A Powerful Place to Begin

Many women are surprised to learn that rebuilding mineral reserves is often one of the most impactful and accessible starting points in restoring resilience.

When the body has what it needs at a foundational level, everything else tends to work better.

Energy improves.

Stress tolerance increases.

The body becomes more capable of healing.

And you finally begin to understand the signals your body has been sending.

How the Mineral Foundations Sessions Work

And what's included.

This process is designed to give you clear insight into your body’s mineral patterns — and a thoughtful strategy for rebuilding those foundations.

Step 1 — Complete your intake and HTMA mineral test

After joining, you'll receive your HTMA mineral test kit by mail along with access to your health intake forms.

The intake allows me to review your:

• current symptoms
• health history
• diet and lifestyle patterns
• medications and supplements
• stress load and environmental exposures

This step gives important context before we ever meet.

Once your hair sample is collected, you'll send it to the lab using the provided kit. Results are typically returned in 3–5 weeks.

During this time, I review your intake and prepare for your results session.


Step 2 — Your Mineral Pattern Review Session (60 minutes)

Once your results arrive, I'll email you to schedule and we’ll meet for your private consultation session.

In this 60-minute session we’ll walk through your mineral patterns together and discuss what they may reveal about how your body is currently functioning.

This includes patterns related to:

• energy production and metabolic function
• stress physiology and nervous system signaling
• hormone communication and thyroid support
• mineral balance and nutrient reserves

We’ll also begin outlining a personalized strategy for rebuilding those mineral foundations in a way that supports your body.


Step 3 — Your personalized mineral strategy

After our session, you'll receive a personalized mineral support strategy.

This may include:

• targeted mineral support
• nutrition and dietary considerations
• lifestyle adjustments that influence mineral balance
• foundational steps to begin rebuilding resilience

This becomes your starting roadmap for supporting your body more intentionally.


Step 4 — Your 3-month follow-up session (30 minutes)

Mineral rebuilding takes time.

Approximately three months after beginning your protocol, we’ll meet for a 30-minute follow-up session to review:

• what changes you’ve noticed
• how your body is responding to the protocol
• any adjustments needed moving forward
• whether deeper testing may be helpful

This allows us to refine your strategy based on how your body is actually responding.

Usually by this stage clients have meaningful improvements to report. Energy and mood shifts are often among the first changes people notice.


What you receive

Your Mineral Foundations Sessions include:

• HTMA mineral test kit
• comprehensive intake review
• 60-minute mineral pattern consultation

The Mineral Foundations Sessions are designed to provide education, insight, and strategic guidance based on functional lab data and individual health history.

What Is the Foundation Jumpstart?

The Foundation Jumpstart is a data-driven, systems-level assessment that looks beneath symptoms to uncover the patterns driving fatigue, hormonal imbalance, stubborn weight, mood shifts, poor sleep, and chronic stress.

This package includes two cornerstone labs and guided interpretation, so you’re not just handed numbers — you’re given context, clarity, and direction.


What’s Included

HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis)

A comprehensive look at your mineral and heavy metal status, revealing how your body is functioning at a cellular level. HTMA offers insight into:

  • Mineral deficiencies and imbalances

  • Metabolic patterns

  • Adrenal and thyroid stress

  • Toxic metal burden

Minerals are required for thousands of processes in the body. When imbalanced, everything from energy production to hormone signaling can suffer.

HTMA shows not just what you’re missing — but how your body is adapting under stress.


SHP (Stress & Hormone Profile)

A detailed assessment of cortisol patterns and hormone output, helping us understand:

  • Your stress response and cortisol levels and patterns over the course of the day

  • Adrenal activity and resilience

  • Hormonal levels and signaling patterns

  • How your body is responding to internal and external stress

This lab reveals whether your system is in fight-or-flight, exhaustion, or somewhere in between — offering powerful insight

into burnout, insomnia, cravings, mood changes, sleep patterns, and many of the stubborn symptoms we deal with everyday.
