Welcome!
By combining leafy greens like kale and spinach with pineapple and lemon you get a nutrient-rich juice that’s not too earthy. Even my 2 ½-year-old, Jackson, enjoyed his little mason jar of green juice.
The Best Essential Oils for Hair Many essential oils can improve the health of your hair due to their moisturizing, soothing, and enriching properties. I love using this Nourishing Essential Oil Hair Mist to help keep my hair luscious, full of shine, and in good condition all year long. Lavender, Rosemary, and Clary Sage essential […]
The Ultimate Paleo Pizza Crust My husband, Frank’s, favourite food is hands down pizza. And in honour of his 33rd birthday this week, I’m sharing our family’s most loved paleo pizza crust recipe. This pie is 100% grain, nut, and dairy free with a vegan option. So EVERYONE can eat it without any grumbling. I […]
This is the perfect recipe to keep on hand for a quick weekend meal. I love mixing up the veggies so it’s something different every time, too. For this recipe, I chopped up some fresh cherry tomatoes, baby spinach, and shiitake mushrooms.
Mac n Cheese has, and always will be, an auto-win in my books. It’s a classic comfort food that I grew up eating all the time and that wasn’t going to change.
Our family LOVES this super moist carrot cake. It’s the perfect companion to any holiday dinner or, hey, just because you wanna have some cake! The grain-free flours make it safe for celiacs and anyone with a gluten intolerance, too.
They’re a classic vegetable served with most dinners, but poor carrots are never really the star of the show. That’s why I love this recipe. The slightly-sweet but earthy flavour of the carrots really shine when paired with some lemon juice and honey. The rosemary adds a perfect amount of herbaceous aroma.
There’s a reason why the topical treatments you use for irritated and acne-prone skin don’t work. Skin issues are not a topical issue. They’re a symptom of an internal problem.
Sweet and chewy lemon turmeric bliss balls made with almond and coconut flours. High in protein, fibre, and good fats for the perfect bite-sized snack.
Buddha Bowls are generally more of a formula than a strict recipe. They contain all the macronutrients we need from food: protein, fat, and carbohydrate. By including all of these in one meal, our body feels more satiated and stay fuller for longer.

I’m Katie
I’m a Registered Holistic Nutritionist specializing in helping women with chronic acne clear their skin from the inside out.
Hey!
After years of dealing cystic breakouts, I cleared up my skin for good by fixing my gut, liver and hormones. I went back to school for nutrition and then said seeya later to my job in television. I launched an online nutrition business (before working from home was a thing) so I could help as many women as possible feel confident AF in their own skin, too.

Let's finally get you back to clear, glowing skin.
Acne goes deeper than just the surface—it's a sign of internal imbalances. That’s why prescriptions, medicated creams, and high-end facials don’t deliver lasting results. True skin clarity comes from an inside-out approach, and we're here to support you every step of the way.

"I just wanted to let you know that this program works!!!
I have never struggled with acne but then I turned 21 and then I broke out all over my fave. I never wanted to go anywhere and didn't want to talk to anybody. I became very depressed and angry. There were times I wanted to quit the program because I felt like nothing was working! By the grace of God, He got me through and I am healed! I just wanted to encourage everyone to keep going!!! You got this! Don't give up! Good things are coming!"

"My skin.

"I actually enjoy the look of my face with less make-up."
I used to wear a lot of powder and concealer to cover the break out areas, as well as to hide my scars. Both my breakouts and scars are lessening in amount and redness!!
