NOTE! My focus more recently has been on artistic endevours amidst my own health struggles, so if you are looking for crochet creations, patterns, yarn, custom pieces, or other such fiber explorations go over to the Silver Wheel Fibre Arts tab above. Basically…
…any crochet image you send my way, I can make for you!
(yes, even AI foolishness)
Message me directly for such commissions, or if you are interested in an artistic collaboration.
My passion for health remains, but I am working to find ways to feed my family and pay the bills while caring for my physical and mental health needs and limitations, and sadly struggled to get the online health shift to land (I know, even with my 20 years of experience and ample education!).
Thank you for you understanding and welcome adaptation to my evolving online presence.
North Star Health: Offering compassion and guidance for the challenges of evolving health needs.
When what to eat or not eat, exercise or not exercise, rest or not rest, and the mountain of supplement recommendations feels like an insane tangle to wade through, I am here to remind you that you do not have to go it alone!
I offer a listening ear and supportive guidance to help you find clarity and direction through realistic and accessible goals to living the best life you can through whatever health and life are throwing your way.
Living with ongoing health challenges can make even the most educated and driven individuals feel lost, confused, frustrated, and disheartened (believe me, I know!).
Here you’ll find thoughtfully designed digital tools to help you organize your symptoms, prepare for medical appointments, and create small pockets of clarity and calm — at your own pace.
Sometimes there is no fixing these things (sometimes there is, through places you might not have considered looking!), but there are always ways to find peace with where you’re at and joy in what you can still do. Let’s work together to help you find it again; I am here whenever you are ready…
North Star Health is grounded in over two decades of experience across body-based practices, psychology, and lived experience with chronic illness. Everything here is created with care for nervous system regulation, accessibility, and real-life use.
This space may be for you if:
- You live with chronic or complex health challenges
- You feel overwhelmed by medical systems
- Your energy fluctuates day to day
- You want support that respects your limits
Warmest welcome, on both the good days and the less than good days!
Start with simple, supportive tools
These digital resources are designed to reduce cognitive load and help you advocate for yourself with more confidence, even when energy and motivation are hit or miss…
- Medical Advocacy Symptom Tracker for Chronic Illness
Newest addition! ~ Organize symptoms, track patterns, and prepare clear summaries for appointments. - The Human Potential Journal
A gentle, reflective journal to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and process change — without toxic positivity. - Season of Growth Quiz
A short, reflective check-in to help you understand what kind of support you may need right now.
Sometimes, when I myself have some energy… I write things and record podcast episodes! Be gentle, as I am very green and have learnt a lot of tech to try to make these happen. :)
