The Wellness Collective
I’ve been working on something behind the scenes for a while and I truly hope you’ll join me on the inside.
I’ve been carving out my own little corner of an amazing space of 22 experts and encouraging creators, called the Hyve. And when you join me in The Wellness Collective you have full access to the entire Hyve.

What is The Wellness Collective?
The Wellness Collective is a place I can share, uncensored. There’s no algorithm to anger when I use the words “nutritious” or “healthy.” No algorithm to have to appease with 5-second video clips or trending sound. And, best of all, no algorithm to straight up refuse to share my recipes, encouragement, hacks, and tips.
It’s not just recipes, it’s teaching you how to analyze recipes, compare ingredient choices, and recreate homemade pantry staples.
It’s not just tips for having more real food in your home, with fresh flour & dehydrating & fermenting & all the good things, it’s nitty gritty how tos that you’re not finding anywhere else.
It’s not just movement/fitness goals, but it’s a true weekly plan and accountability among like-minded friends and a certified personal trainer.
The Wellness Collective is a community in the truest sense. Full of folks who are learning, trying, and thriving together, improving how we eat and how we live.
What’s Inside?
In The Wellness Collective and all the other amazing Hyves—you’ll find all the things I wish I knew over the past 11 years.
For over a decade, I’ve been slowly transforming our pantry and our lives.
🖐️ FORMER JUNK FOOD JUNKIE
But I’m a former 🍭junk food junkie🍭 who grew up with parents who knew about real food (both coming from rural agrarian farm families). Yet mom and dad got sidetracked, as many do, by the allure, convenience & “improvement” of processed food. They had so much wisdom to teach me as a kid but didn’t see the value to the old-fashioned ways they left behind.
But they never spared me the rich stories of their childhoods.
The difficulties of homesteading were never sugar-coated, yet still so appealing to me.
Those stories, the ones that make up who I am, also made me long for a simpler life before I even realized that was my dream.
🚜 OLD SCHOOL WITH MODERN CONVENIENCE
When Bill & I moved our family of 6 to a rural New England farm, we needed all the advice on chickens & cows and food preservation. I was elated to realize that real food is possible with a modern twist that made it not as desperate and hard as my grandparent’s generation, but I couldn’t find community to help me find my way after my parents both suddenly passed away.
💟 THE END GOALS
With The Wellness Collective my goal is to create exactly what I needed all along.
🍴 If you’re looking to pursue small (or huge) steps towards homesteading today as a welcome relief from the processed-food hamster wheel you’re currently on, The Wellness Collective is for you.
🍴 If you’re looking to understand the value of fresh milled flour and how to use it, then The Wellness Collective is for you.
🍴 If you’re looking for community outside of the controlled social media platforms, then The Wellness Collective is for you.
🍴 If you’re convicted that you need to focus on health and fitness to be your best, and also know you need accountability, then The Wellness Collective is for you.
🧡 More connection, less confusion.
💜 Meaningful learning, zero censorship.
💛 More accountability, less distraction.
