Hello! My name is Katrina, and my tribe includes my 2 large pups. Together we are reinventing our lives traveling in our Tumbleweed Tiny House. I am reinventing my life because up until now the past life didn't work. I am now inspired and love to share my story with others to inspire them. My story the condense version and starting in 2011. I was healthy and love my business hiking the mountains of Colorado's with dogs and training and before that in sales! July 2011 I lost the vision in my left eye, then a week later the feeling in my left side was gone from my toes to my ribs. I went to see a AMAZING DR in Longmont Colorado that called. You probably have Multiple Sclerosis and need to get to a Neuro asap. That I did (condense version and not a easy task) and the Neuro after a MRI on my head and back with contrast, confirmed the diagnoses. He called me and told me this on Friday in July. I was home by myself and had NO Idea what MS was but I knew it was bad. Weeks after I continued to have more and more symptoms until eventually I had everyone except the hug which I got a year later. It seems that I was thrown into learning quickly about MS and if it goes undx and not treated (that I will talk about later too) it keeps progressing, which had happened to me after years of complaining to drs on various symptoms. So JULY 2011, I had the whole divine storm that hit HARD. I was couch bound for most of a year, dependent on help, depressed, couldn't see out of my left eye for 6 months, PLUS all the other symptoms I won't detail now. If you have any questions, do feel free to email and ask. I am a advocate for knowledge and understanding of MS symptoms with people, family and friends. So please ask. The divine storm continued, I ultimately got divorce and sold my house (the ending of the storm) to move to a apartment and design my Tiny House with Tumbleweed Tiny Homes in Colorado Springs. With my hands on life experience and my passion for health and wellness, with what brought me back, I returned to school. When I wasn't walking I swore to myself and God that if I got one more chance and I could recover from this, I would dedicate my life to helping others in similar situations with my story, & helping people regain their health. If you don't have your health you really don't have much! I found this out BIG TIME! So I went back to school and I am not a certified Holistic Integrative Nutrition Health Coach. I loved Institute of Integrative Nutrition. (Please send me a email if you are curious as I can send you discounts and tell you more about the school that I love). The reason I loved this school is the belief that its not just the foods we put in out bodies that feed us, its all other 11 aspects of life that completes the balance for a full filled and happy life and feeds your soul. I totally agree, after my journey YES, 100% and now I can help others achieve what I have thru balance. I walk the talk and this blog is my journey with all of that and my reinvention. I provide Free Consultations up front to see if our personalities a match and if you are really ready to do the work it takes to transform your life and health. Feel free to contact me for further information on my services. Its a honor for me to help others transform their lives or better yet never have to transform.
