The IBS Freedom Group Program

“I never thought I’d feel this type of freedom…”

“I was unable to do any of the things that used to bring me joy: walks in nature with no bathroom around; going out to dinner with my husband, friends and family; cooking up recipes I found online. I was constantly afraid of everything I put in my mouth. Meal times gave me great anxiety. Not to mention THE PAIN. My stomach hurt 24/7. I couldn’t wear anything other than leggings - and even then sometimes those hurt me. The gas, the shame, the diarrhea, the hemorrhoids. I cried all the time.

Jessie actually listened to me. She never rolled her eyes at me. She never made me feel like an idiot or like I was somehow messing up and creating these problems on my own. From our very first meeting she knew exactly what was up. She gave me her opinion and I swear a lightbulb went off in my head. I am a healthcare practitioner and she helped me understand there is so much more to gut health than what I’ve been taught in school. Her program was easy to understand and extremely easy to follow. It was such a relief to have a step by step guide of how I can reach a good place with my IBS symptoms.

Just do it. I have such high regard for Jessie and her program. As a person, Jessie is incredible, and she knows her shit (literally). She helped me get diagnosed with non celiac wheat sensitivity and it’s CHANGED MY LIFE. I never thought I’d feel this type of freedom (even without wheat in my life). My morning poops are still mind blowing to me and my abdominal pain is practically gone. I never bloat. I only have symptoms when I get glutened. I’ve learned to cook for myself safely (while making delicious food) and I’ve reintroduced all FODMAPs (including garlic!) without issue! Please, just do it. Let Jessie help you like she did me.”

“Jessie’s group program helped me take control of my life again… This has been the best investment I have made on myself and I wish I signed up sooner!”

“I suffered from bloating, gas, diarrhea and constipation. It got so bad that I started to suffer from extreme anxiety over my health and eating food to the point I was starving myself.

Jessie’s group program help break down what IBS really is and how it’s more than just food intolerances. Once I watched her videos and learned more about it I was able to make big lifestyle changes which resulted in my symptoms becoming less severe. She also helped me process through the sadness I initially felt when she started to figure out gluten may be causing most of my symptoms.

Jessie’s group program helped me take control of my life again. I went to school to study nutrition so for years I told myself that I could figure my symptoms out on my own, however once I hit a low point I decided that I needed support from someone else who specialized in IBS. I came to her extremely underweight because my anxiety convinced me I had something way worse and I was so afraid to eat anything else besides chicken broth, a baked potato and jello. After 12 weeks of working with her and meeting with others every week in the program it helped me to feel that I am NOT alone in this journey and that there truly is hope. I’m not afraid to leave my house anymore (I used to be afraid of leaving my house to drop my kids off at school or go grocery shopping, it was that bad) and I’m very excited to go on vacations again. This has been the best investment I have made on myself and I wish I signed up sooner!”

“I feel less stress, I gained confidence, knowledge, and most of all I regained my love for food! Working with Jessie has been the best thing I could have ever done for myself, I am so very grateful for her!”

“The past two years I have struggled to understand why I was having so many tummy issues. Doctors always told me it was just IBS and trapped gas but not much guidance was provided. Jessie helped me find the cause of my flare ups… and helped me reach my goal this year of getting my health back on track. I feel a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I feel less stress, I gained confidence, knowledge, and most of all I regained my love for food! Working with Jessie has been the best thing I could have ever done for myself, I am so very grateful for her!”

“Jessie really helped change my life and make me feel in control again. She took my symptoms from a 10 to almost a 1 in a matter of weeks of working with her.”

“Prior to working with Jessie I had constant bloat, gas, pain and constipation. Jessie taught me a ton about nutrition and the importance of hydration and eating the rainbow and to watch for my symptoms and then make changes accordingly to help navigate any possible issues. She was also very attentive to my needs and concerns and always there to mentally guide me through the process with her. Jessie really helped change my life and make me feel in control again. She took my symptoms from a 10 to almost a 1 in a matter of weeks of working with her. I am now able to live a mostly normal life and keep my IBS symptoms at bay and she’s to thank ! She truly cares about her clients and puts a lot of work into her program and it shows!”

“Jessie helped me get my voice - and my life - back. I feel energetic, pain-free, and regular, and I could not be more grateful.”

“Abdominal pain, bloating, chronic constipation, excessive gas, and chronic acid reflux that cause to laryngitis. I tried multiple different types of restrictive diets (at one point, I was only eating rice, bone broth, and bananas). I was in so much pain and so fearful of food that I lost 40 lbs in three months. I saw several doctors, including a GI specialist. Got an endoscopy and tons of blood work. Everything came back normal and I felt like I was written off by that doctor. I also tried several expensive supplements that helped minimally at best.

Daily bowel movements was the first critical step, first using MiraLAX, and now using magnesium citrate. Next was eradicating SIBO, and then finding out what was the root cause of my issues, which happens to be gluten. I now have daily bowel movements in the morning that are a normal consistency, and have minimal to no acid reflux.

The program is expensive, but it was worth every penny to get my health back. I am a professional musician and singer. With all of my G.I. issues, acid reflux literally stole my voice. I am now able to sing better than I ever could. Jessie helped me get my voice - and my life - back. I feel energetic, pain-free, and regular, and I could not be more grateful. Thank you, Jessie!”

“Just do it! Save yourself the pain of countless doctor's appointments that only make you feel unheard and alone, save your money from “miracle cures” and just take your health seriously and put yourself in expert hands. It is expensive, yes but it’s so worth it and you won’t regret doing it when you don’t have to worry about your symptoms anymore.”

“After more than 2 years of on/off diarrhea and no support from my GI I decided it was time to reach out for a professional on IBS as these symptoms were taking over my life and I was feeling isolated all the time, terrified of leave my house and that a flare of diarrhea could happen at any moment… As a mom of 2 young children, the way Jessie approaches the program is genius and very well done as you can only focus to one thing at a time as well as her support alone guiding you every step of the way is priceless.

I just wished I would have found her sooner. Just do it! Save yourself the pain of countless doctor's appointments that only make you feel unheard and alone, save your money from “miracle cures” and just take your health seriously and put yourself in expert hands. It is expensive, yes but it’s so worth it and you won’t regret doing it when you don’t have to worry about your symptoms anymore.”

“After working with Jessie for just a month my symptoms improved SO drastically that even my husband started to notice how my overall daily mood had changed.”

“Before meeting Jessie I was really suffering with my digestion to the point that I was afraid of leaving the house to go for a walk. I was under a huge amount of stress and all I thought about was food and what I could/couldn’t eat. After working with Jessie for just a month my symptoms improved SO drastically that even my husband started to notice how my overall daily mood had changed. By tracking my bowel movements and food on Jessie’s app, Jessie was able to help me clearly see a pattern to my symptoms. This pattern was like a light bulb moment and suddenly everything made sense. Don’t hesitate. It’s expensive but it’s 100% worth it. I’d pay again and again for this experience with Jessie.”

Jessica

“Jessie gave me my life back… Just do it!! You will feel so much better and you will get so much freedom in life through her program!”

“My major complaint was diarrhea. I was so afraid to eat any food because I would be in the bathroom immediately afterward. I was afraid to go on car rides longer than 10 minutes for fear that I would have to go to the bathroom (because it did happen more than once). I struggled with bloating as well. I saw a GI doctor and went through many testing and a colonoscopy with no solutions. I tried probiotics and Benefiber for months... Nothing was making it better and I had eliminated over 50% of my diet/the foods I ate just purely out of fear.

Jessie was a godsend! …I have not had diarrhea in months since working with Jessie! I now drive an hour to work every day and have no fear of having to stop on my way to go to the bathroom. I do not have much fear of food anymore, and I have most of my bloating under control! Jessie gave me my life back… Just do it!! You will feel so much better and you will get so much freedom in life through her program!”

“I am feeling the best I've ever felt in years after participating in her group program.”

“I had constant lower abdominal pain, irregular bathroom habits, and a constant love/hate relationship with food. I tried probiotics, expensive 30-day detoxes, and lived on a small group of food/protein shakes. I had to scout the nearest bathrooms everywhere we went and always anticipated having a flare-up before, during, or after a special occasion… Jessie has been a lifesaver! Now I have a safe plan to combat any potential flare-ups and I've fallen in love with food again. Having a whole food diet instead of multiple supplements has been a game-changer. I've come to appreciate gentle walks and deep breathing/meditation to ease anxieties… It felt good to have a real professional addressing my symptoms and really caring about how I was feeling. The group and Jessie have changed my life for the better. I highly encourage those dealing with IBS and SIBO to work with a dietitian specialized in these conditions. I'm glad I took a chance with Jessie! Best investment of 2020!!! I can't recommend this program enough!! Jessie is wonderful and a joy to work with. I am feeling the best I've ever felt in years after participating in her group program. The app she uses for the program was easy to navigate and get a hold of her if you needed to talk to her.”

“I can eat things that I couldn't eat before… I truly can say… the day I followed Jessie on Instagram and a few months later I trusted her and the program was the best decision I could ever take regarding treating my IBS.”

“I have been suffering from IBS symptoms for 2 years… I had severe flareups, my stomach was bloated like I'm pregnant at 3 months. I had severe constipation and abdominal pains. I tried going to a gastro- dietitian and a Naturopathic and… after working with Jessie I understand that the only one who can really help is an IBS dietitian!! Jessie has truly changed my life… Working with Jessie made me understand that IBS isn't just what we eat but it's also how relaxed we are, how did we sleep through the night, exercise, if we drink enough, how much fiber does our body receives from the food we eat, how much do we eat and how fast. I have learned how to manage my symptoms and more important I know my body a lot better. I can eat things that I couldn't eat before because I was afraid of every meal and how it could affect me.

I truly can say from the deep of my heart that the day I followed Jessie on Instagram and a few months later I trusted her and the program were the best decisions I could ever take regarding treating my IBS… Jessie is the kind of person who will listen to you and will give you confidence, won't judge you and will really help you because she really cares. I would be grateful for her always!”

“When you work with the group, it is very encouraging as you are not alone facing challenges and you learn a lot on how others are organizing themselves to improve their gut health - this does motivate you at 100%!”

“Doctors assumed that it was anxiety and stress causing gut problems. Was constantly having sleeping pills and antispasmodic and anti-acid tablets to cope with day-to-day symptoms. I was having difficulties digesting fruits, always having stomach aches and chronic constipation which would cause fainting as well. {Jessie’s} program is amazing. Helped me to overcome stress of reintroducing FODMAP meals. Helped me to cope with stress of day-to-day life. Helped me to have confidence and trust my body and digestion process. I loved the weekly challenges and the weekly meetings… When you work with the group, it is very encouraging as you are not alone facing challenges and you learn a lot on how others are organizing themselves to improve their gut health - this does motivate you at 100%!”

“I'm no longer experiencing constant stomach pain or tootin' all day long (ha!), and I have a much better handle on my flare-ups.”

“A year prior to working with Jessie, I had purchased a book and tackled the IBS elimination diet on my own. Even though I figured out how sensitive I was to each FODMAP and felt better than I used to, I still wasn't feeling fully normal. It wasn't until I went through Jessie's group program that I gained a better understanding of my IBS and figured out the root cause of it all. Talking about my BMs in front of strangers was definitely a first for probably all of us, but it wasn't a big deal because everyone in the group was going through similar things. It's a very supportive and non-judgmental environment, and the fact that Jessie exudes joy in her work makes the experience even better. Because of her, I'm no longer experiencing constant stomach pain or tootin' all day long (ha!), and I have a much better handle on my flare-ups. Thanks, Jessie!”

“I can’t remember the last time I have felt this good!”

“Before I started this program I often found myself very bloated and uncomfortable. There was almost no point in the day where I felt good in my skin. It seemed like everything I ate made me blow up like a balloon, I was constantly farting and I had low energy all the time. At first, I had very bad constipation, so my doctor recommend some stool softeners that I took, but they never put a time limit on them so I took them for way too long. Then that turned into consistent diarrhea. At first, I didn’t mind the diarrhea because I thought at least I’m not constipated. I then also began experiencing Heartburn after every meal, which had never happened before. However, it then began fluctuating between diarrhea and constipation. The worst was always right before my period, and often even impacted my abilities at work, since I was constantly on my feet and moving around, but these symptoms just caused me to want to stay put all day. After dinner, I would just lay on the floor on my stomach for a while because that seemed to be the only comfortable position.

Through the low FODMAP diet along with using osmotic laxatives, I began to seem some relief. We also concluded that I had SIBO, so Jessie’s help with managing and getting rid of that was amazing! After a couple of weeks my SIBO was completely gone and I no longer experienced heartburn. However, for a while, I was not progressing with my bowel movements. I would message Jessie frequently and we continued to talk at our weekly check-in, and she suggested new methods every time. She suggested that I might have a high sensitivity to gluten, which may actually be celiac-related. At first, I really didn’t think it was that, but I took Jessie’s advice and went completely gluten-free, and literally within 3 days I was having consistent bowel movements and my bloating and farting subsided greatly. Since then I have had multiple bowel movements every day, and I can’t remember the last time I have felt this good! This program is totally worth it! I was hesitant at first, and sometimes I wasn’t so sure about Jessie’s suggestions, but I’m so glad I continued to trust her and got to the bottom of my food sensitivities!”
