Most people don’t need more health advice.
They need clarity.
What’s true. What works. What to ignore—based on real science.
I don’t summarize wellness trends—I go back to the studies they’re based on.
I’m a PhD health researcher, award-winning scientist, and best-selling author. Most wellness writers have never read a study. I've published over 110. I’m ranked in the top 1% of the world’s most influential researchers—but what matters most is this:
I read the research. You get the takeaway.
No lab coat language. No hacks. No extremes. No influencer fluff.
My posts are short. My standards are high.
Wellness has been made complicated—and expensive.
Most of what actually matters is simple, cheap, and not flashy.
When I’m not reading research, I’m hiking in National Parks with my family, exercising outdoors with friends, walking the family dog, and living what I research.
Who This Is For
For people who want fewer opinions, fewer decisions, and more proof.
What I Cover
Science-backed takes on energy, focus, sleep, and longevity — with healthspan as the goal.
Clear takes on wellness trends—what’s real, what’s not.
Real-world tests of what I'm researching — including what didn't work.

Health isn’t just my job. It’s my hobby.
I grew up in Northern Ontario, Canada. Cold winters, frozen lakes. Now I live in Florida with my husband, three boys, and our dog — the other extreme.
I don’t have all the answers. But I know which questions to ask.

The Bottom Line
There are thousands of fluffy wellness newsletters. I’m a researcher who publishes studies and actually reads the research I write about. AI is my grammar check. Nothing else. Wellness Discovery is for people who want real health — grounded in science.
