How Our Roadmap Works

As a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® Practitioner I can connect you with functional lab tests like stool analyses, food sensitivity tests, organic acid tests, nutrigenomics testing, and mineral tests with support from my medical partners. 

The goal of these tests is to help you understand your child's body so you know where to focus your energy. They accelerate our progress by pinpointing hidden stressors that contribute to symptoms.

Here's how labs work...

We will decide together in our initial session which functional tests will be helpful and our team will arrange for kits to be sent out to you. We will help you access the cheapest prices available but their cost is not included. 

We like to run a nutrigenomics test to establish a genetic baseline and from there we typically add 2-4 more for further insight.

These are factors deep in your child's body that you can't see but that contribute to symptoms by adding stress and interfering with function.

I've found 5 core areas that give us the insight we need:

1. nutrient imbalances,
2. infections,
3. food reactions,
4. toxic load and detox capacity
5. imbalances in the gut microbiome

In most cases we base this in an understanding of your child's genetic blueprint so you know exactly what's going on in your child's body that's making it hard for them to cope and end up with your own unique toolbox of tools to support them.

That depends on how much support you need but as a ballpark your investment will range from $349-$799/month to work with us.

You'll need to budget extra for labs and supplements and if you have more than one child you might need to budget extra for a sibling map.

When we meet for your application call we will decide the best fit for your needs.

Our 10 recorded modules are intentionally short lessons (5-30 minutes each), action steps, handouts, transcripts and recipes to support your learning. You'll get immediate access upon registration. We'll walk you through them using our progression, but you can really work through them at your own speed. 

We also give you recorded masterclasses we've done with other experts to help you understand your kids.

Fermented Foods 101:  How to make simple fermented foods for your kids they'll actually eat!

As you follow the Roadmap you'll learn foundational concepts and guidelines you can apply to your entire family. 

In our private strategy session we will create a customized plan that will focus on one child.

If you have other children you're worried about we can add Sibling Mapping packages for them. 

That depends on the type of insurance coverage you have. You'll have to ask your insurance provider if they cover holistic nutrition (also remember that my office is in Canada). 

In Canada, as a CAHN-pro member I can be covered by the following insurance companies: Industrial Alliance, Claim Secure, DiBrina Sure Group, Johnson Insurance, Manulife, Great West. Your employer has put "nutrition" in your policy, though. 

Having said that, please don't let an insurance company decide what kind of care your child deserves. If this is what they need let's come up with a payment plan that feels do-able.

Because isolation and loneliness will keep you stuck in overwhelm whereas group connection will accelerate your progress.

The Resilience Roadmap was designed as a hybrid program to give parents an individualized plan alongside group support and accountability to stay on track. 

If you're not into the group thing, we can put you in our Premium tier so you get more 1:1

As soon as you sign up you will receive instant access to the material and support so we are not able to offer any refunds.

You should NOT invest in this program if you think you might want to refund it.

Our group is made up of parents who are honestly committed to consuming and using these materials and making change happen. If you can commit to this for 3-5 months we welcome you with open arms! If you think you might want a refund don't apply for this program. Instead, join our Calm & Clear Kids program first to get some starting points and gather some momentum.

Once again, this program is Non Refundable.

Our approach to helping a child feel and function better works, but it is not for everbody. I am not a doctor and I do not treat any condition specifically.  Instead, I help you understand your child's body and find opportunities to support its function.

The way I work is probably unlike anything you've experienced before, and requires a different way of thinking about health, behavior and parenting. I want you to be crystal clear about expectations before diving in. This is why I have a conversation with each person before they can register.

Clarity is Kindness :) 

I work primarily with parents. If you think your child is mature enough and interested enough, and you think bringing them into the conversation would support their progress, they are welcome to come with parents to the lab reviews and protocol reviews.

If we're working with a teen and you want me to meet privately with them we can enroll you in our Premium tier and dedicate some of those private sessions for your teen.

Our office hour sessions, however, are just for parents.

Listen.... we're all parents here and we're all busy. That's why I've deliberately filtered out all the noise for you. 

Our Roadmap is designed to save you time and free up your energy so you can be there for your kids.

We take 5 months to walk you through our Roadmap. That gives us time to implement what you're learning and incorporate all this good stuff into your routine.

In terms of the lessons, you can binge them in about 3 hours or take them week by week in 5-30 minute chunks. 

You'll get action steps by email each week to keep you on track.

You can listen to the bonus masterclasses at your leisure.

We've constructed this Roadmap so you can do it.  

The better question to ask is, "how can I afford the time to not do this for my family??"

Yup! We'd love to have you.  We have a Group version that's perfect for you.

In The Resilience Roadmap content we use the language of "emotional stability", "self regulation". But the exact same strategies we talk about work for health promotion as well. 

It's actually ideal if parents learn about this early, before trouble starts.

Statistically, 1 in 5 children develops an emotional or learning issue and 54% develop a chronic illness before they graduate high school. Since food is an important preventive tool it's important to get these strategies in place early - especially if you have a family history of any mental or physical illness. 

Apply and we'll make sure you're put in the right place.
