Prior to working with you, I was experiencing extreme fatigue, achy joints, and a completely messed up gut. I was so so discouraged. I had tried losing weight and was hitting a wall with weight loss resistance. My thyroid levels were wonky but not bad enough to be taken seriously. For the first time, I felt heard and validated. I felt crazy and like I was making my experience up in my head. Working with you helped me understand my own body and what was going on! You helped me see how my view of myself and what was going on was keeping me from making progress. My gut symptoms improved, my joints started to feel less achy, and I felt like I knew what to do. I didn’t feel hopeless anymore! That was maybe the biggest change and something that I think makes such a difference in how we approach healing our bodies. Working with you has been such a huge blessing of 2021! You listened to everything going on and remained encouraging! You challenged me to find better ways of taking care of my body as well as not viewing my body as the problem! I still have a ways to go but I’m thankful to have you on my side! - Megan R, 29
Before working with Lindsay I was struggling with “unexplained infertility”. I later discovered I had Hashimoto’s so reached out to Lindsay for help. I tried general healthy eating and ate a solely vegetarian-based diet. After working with Lindsay I found ways to eat to support my thyroid health and reduce my inflammation. She helped me change how I viewed food and gave me lots of things to try, which felt empowering. She offered me testing options to continue ruling out other issues and gave me information on types of vitamins to support my specific health. For what it’s worth, after a few months of modifying my diet, I did in fact get pregnant after years of trying and I can’t help but think her helping me get my health in order was a huge contributing factor to our success. Lindsay was a complete joy to work with and I am so grateful for her help. She was easy to schedule with and I always felt like she had time for my concerns. She kept me accountable with assignments and check-ins before the appointments. If you have thyroid issues, just see Lindsay. Do it. I promise you won’t be disappointed. - Jennifer O., 32

I was very down on myself. At age 23, I had a long medical history than most females my age. Because of my medical history, I gained weight, had an unhealthy relationship with food, couldn’t sleep at night, and ultimately did not feel like I had control of my life. I attempted diets that provided a temporary fix but never helped resolve anything in the long run. Now, everything is better. I found solutions to enjoy foods that I like while also incorporating foods that actually make me feel good. My mindset has changed dramatically. I always felt like I was failing at everything I wanted to change about myself, but after working with Lindsay, she has helped me find tools that work with my lifestyle. Working with Lindsay was one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. Meeting with Lindsay helped my confidence and left me feeling like I could conquer anything. I needed a little motivation and encouragement, and sometimes just someone to talk with that understands, and Lindsay truly provided the extra push I needed. I cannot thank her enough for how far she has helped me come in just a short amount of time. - Annelise P., 24

When I found Lindsay, I was suffering from GI issues, trouble sleeping, frequent heart palpitations, headaches, insomnia, and anxiety. I've been to doctors and specialists, put on anxiety meds, heartburn meds, and other "treatments" to help deal with these symptoms to no avail. Since working with her, I've seen drastic improvements. Specifically, my GI symptoms have alleviated, as did my heart palpitations, headaches, and anxiety. I still struggle with sleep but have an idea of why this is happening and tools to help me continue to get my body back on track going forward. I'm not a great student and didn't always follow everything to a T, so I imagine doing so would have brought even better results! Lindsay was easy to talk to, responsive to messages, and I felt like I was talking to a very smart friend. I appreciated the care and expertise. - Emily P., 34

I came to Lindsay wanting to proactively work on my thyroid health before it got to the point that I would need medicine. She is so kind and so resourceful! Every call, we talked about my overall health and she had new suggestions – whether it was supplements, recipes, or stress management. She took an overwhelming task and made it manageable for me! - Jessica F., 30

I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s in February of 2020. Prior to working with Lindsay in March of 2020, I was run down, exhausted all the time, gaining weight, and losing hair. Since working with Lindsay, I have developed a greater understanding of the challenges of thyroid disease. Lindsay is an excellent teacher in part because she is a great listener. She takes notes, responds to specifics, and coaches through the intricate details of health challenges. I now have increased energy and a "can do" attitude with the dietary and lifestyle challenges to live my best life with a chronic thyroid condition. Lindsay is well worth the investment in yourself and in your overall health. - Gina S., 58

My spouse and I had been struggling with infertility for months yet were in a weird gray area where doctors wouldn’t treat us until a year of struggles. Then once we started working with a doctor, infertility went unexplained and we did two failed rounds of Letrozole. Lindsay was easy to schedule with and had availability that worked for my schedule. She instantly was empathetic and really heard my experience and had concrete next steps we could take to start to address the areas of her expertise. She offered lab testing, then tailored recommendations and education based on the results. In between appointments, she was only a message away and incredibly responsive and supportive. I loved the ease of access and use of technology. It felt empowering and supportive to be able to access our conversation, notes, recommendations, and order supplements from the palm of my hand. Since working with Lindsay, I have become pregnant! My spouse and I are grateful and ecstatic. I am more mindful about my stress levels and supporting my body in a way for optimal health. I’ve even gained a taste for coconut water ;). If you are waiting for a sign, this is it. Start working with Lindsay. She’s a practitioner on your side who can help you navigate your way to optimal health. - Hannah K., 29

After years of suffering from fatigue, weight gain, insufferable amounts of daily diarrhea, anxiety, and just overall feeling crummy, I decided something had to change. At the time, I was seeing an Endocrinologist who had a 0/10 bedside manner and overall, her treatment didn't seem to be helping. I was following a local KC influencer who spoke very highly of Lindsay and her treatment plan and I thought, what the hell, might as well do a consult. I was about to wave my white flag and just tell myself this was my normal. During my consult with Lindsay is when I saw the light at the end of the tunnel. She listened to my story, advice I had been given over the years, medications I had been on, personal life-changing events, and pretty much my entire life story. At the end of my rambling, Lindsay explained that the cause of my issues could potentially be overlooked and therefore, not being treated appropriately. It was during this consult that I realized Lindsay was there for me and most of all, she was there to help me find the root cause. Surprisingly, her approach is a rarity, but in my experience, her approach is a life changer. I finally have energy, sleep better, my anxiety has gone down, my weight has decreased (this was not a motivating factor for me), and I just feel better overall. - Anonymous, 31

Before working with Lindsay I was suffering from skin issues, fatigue, brain fog, low sex drive, and trouble losing weight. Lindsay was great and helped me a lot. I loved how she explained everything in detail to me. In just a short period of time, everything has changed for the better! I didn’t realize I could feel this good! - anonymous, 29

“If you are struggling with a thyroid disorder, I recommend seeking Lindsay’s expertise. Prior to Lindsay’s help, I was struggling with fatigue, anxiety and trouble losing weight. She helped me get the right labs to now know I have Hashimoto’s. She also helped me with the right food and supplements to increase energy and lower my TSH. I now have the energy to exercise and motivation to eat healthy.” - Erica, 29

“Before working with Lindsay and going through the LEAP program I was feeling bloated and tired. I couldn't lose weight and needed help learning the right foods to eat for my body. Through this program, I basically learned to cook! I feel less bloated and have learned what foods make me feel the best. I highly recommend Lindsay! She is so patient and spent a lot of time helping me. She even came to my house on a Sunday when I was feeling overwhelmed and taught me how to make a few simple things! If she doesn’t know the answer to something, she will spend endless hours doing research for you and present you with many options. And if all this wasn’t enough, she is just a sweet person to talk to! I loved working with her.” - Leslie, 56

“Prior to the LEAP program and working with Lindsay I was dealing with Rheumatoid Arthritis creating chronic fatigue, joint inflammation, widespread and acute pain, as well as multiple digestive issues. I was depressed and missing work regularly. Since working with Lindsay I've been able to stop taking daily over the counter pain medication along with some of my prescription medications. My stomach issues have all resolved themselves. I am sleeping better as well as feeling more rested and my mood has improved significantly. My pain and inflammation are much more controlled. I have not missed any days of work due to pain or depression. Overall, my quality of life has improved exponentially. I think the biggest key to success is doing the best you can and following Lindsay's recommendations. It can be overwhelming and seem almost impossible in the beginning. The process is challenging but it is totally worth it in the end. The longer you are on the protocol, the easier it gets and the more you WANT to do to help yourself feel better. You also realize that you have much more willpower than you originally thought! I have tried every fad diet, supplement, and even other elimination diets with no success. The MRT test gives you such a huge advantage and with Lindsay's help, it becomes manageable. This was literally my last resort in regard to natural medicine and I couldn't be happier with my decision. The investment of time and money was totally worth the results.” - Lea, 36 (Rheumatoid Arthritis and Fibromyalgia)
