Free Your Mind Program
Are you suffering from unusual symptoms of dis-ease that seem to baffle mainstream medicine?
Are you challenged with chronic pain, constant fatigue, anxiety, depression, autoimmune disease, brain fog, food intolerances or chemical sensitivities?
Do you have trouble letting go of control and not being “perfect”?
Are you searching for answers outside yourself?
Do you constantly say yes even when that means putting someone else’s needs first?
Do you have emotional outbursts or meltdowns?
My guess is that you’ve tried any number of approaches from mainstream medicine to supplements to holistic therapies to bring you relief from your unusual ailments.
Unfortunately, even the most powerful modalities like dietary overhauls, juice cleanses, acupuncture, energy healing, yoga, reiki, EFT, and meditation alone don’t address the root cause of what’s causing your physical and emotional symptoms.
If you’re like me, years (if not decades) of chronic “fight or flight” have created well-established pathways in your brain that make it nearly impossible to come back to a resting state. When your body is constantly on high alert, scanning your environment for physical and emotional “toxins," it can be an uphill battle to relearn how to be at peace. And when your body isn’t at peace it doesn’t have the resources it needs to heal.
This is not who you are. This is not your fault.
Modern day society - filled with a myriad of stressors in the form of chemicals in the air and in the products we use, toxins in our food supply, the high-achiever mentality of the job force, and even the demands of being the perfect parent or spouse - can take a toll on your ability to unwind and bring your body into balance.
Add to that unaddressed old wounds and emotional traumas simmering deep beneath the surface, just waiting to explode, and it’s no wonder you have chronic symptoms and destructive behavior.
Learn to reset your maladapted survival response
You are hardwired for physical survival. We all are. And at some point in your life, for whatever reason, a part of you (we'll call this your "limbic system") did not feel safe and created a reaction to protect you and ensure your survival.
Maybe it was a difficult childhood. Perhaps it was a stressful relationship or soul-sucking job. Perhaps it was simply the toll that childbirth took on your body in the midst of other significant life changes. Your limbic system stepped in to protect you from all of the stressors and challenges that life threw your way!
Unfortunately, this can lead to living (both consciously and subconsciously) a life of fear - fear of the next trigger or symptom that could harm you. Your hypervigilance keeps you playing small and, over time, can lead to a new persona living in an ever-increasing bubble of "safety." Is this how you want to live? Is this who you really are?
You CAN "rewire" your brain. You just need someone to guide you through the process.
We've been told that this is "all in your head" or "your labs show that you're just fine" or "it's just a phase, stress, hormones..." We’re taught to forge ahead concealing our pain and putting on our band-aids.
We’ve been cast aside - misunderstood at best, ridiculed at worst
We’ve been told our bodies are not to be trusted, are broken and need to be fixed
We lose our sense of self, our passion for life, our vitality
We become desperate for a magic pill that will ease our suffering
Drugs and even holistic therapies and supplements may suppress symptoms, but they don’t address the actual causes of anxiety, fatigue or pain. They don’t offer solutions; they just mask the root problem. That is until you begin to partner with your body and understand that the power to restore your health is within you. You have an inner voice that desperately wants you to hear it's whispers.
You can get better… and others already have.
My clients have found a way out and have seen REAL changes in their lives.
"I had been suffering from many chronic illnesses (SIBO, Candida, Leaky Gut Syndrome, Adrenal Fatigue, Hashimoto's to name a few) for 5 years. After changing my lifestyle completely, trying numerous restricted diets, seeing over a dozen health practitioners, I was left feeling empty, frustrated, isolated, and quite frankly, scared. I was afraid of my body, afraid of food and afraid of life. I wasn’t sure if I could fight the battle anymore. And then Carrie came along. Her coaching left me feeling inspired and empowered! She, and her coaching, is such a breath of fresh air, a warm and healing light that illuminates on everyone she touches. And that same energy shines through her Free Your Mind eCourse. Within days of implementing her action items from Free Your Mind, I was starting to feel free again for the first time in years. The symptoms and suffering seemed to disappear magically and I started feeling light and free as a bird!"
HEATHER T. | MINNESOTA
"Lyme disease taught me one of the greatest lessons of my life, and it allowed me to become curious about what I could learn and change to make my life better, rather than be defeated by my symptoms ... I think these practices could be applied, not just to healing from debilitating illness, but to any situation causing suffering. I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to participate in this course and to begin applying these practices."
JENNY P. | WASHINGTON
"I am really impressed with Carrie’s program. I love the section on laughter because that's one that I forget about. Laughter will take you immediately out of fight or flight, so it's really important to laugh when you get triggered. This course inspired me to make changes by explaining the brain’s ability to rewire and the power of repetition.
It's important to be convinced of the potential of healing before I consider dedicating time and effort to changing my thinking patterns. Carrie’s course is very well thought out and motivating."
KAY H. | NORTH CAROLINA
"Carrie has brought a breath of fresh air to my life through her health and wellness coaching practice. She has helped me see around corners I didn’t know were there and dig deep to relieve suffering I was creating with my thoughts. The wisdom she gained through healing her own dis-ease has helped me work through many similar issues as I healed my breast cancer. I always feel deeply cared for and safe in our coaching conversations. I’m thankful the Universe introduced me to Carrie. Her guidance is always spot on."
JULIE EDGE Ph.D. | Kansas City, MO
When you don’t listen to the whispers of your wise inner guide, the whispers tend to get louder.
I was introduced to the idea of neuroplasticity as a possible treatment for my dozen+ mystery illnesses in early 2013. It would end up taking me 2 1/2 more years and countless supplements, practitioner visits, dietary overhauls, my desperate research into these illnesses, and ultimately a second "rock bottom" before I finally decided I was willing to give this mental "work" a try. Once I dedicated myself to the practice, I began to see results within days in the form of increased energy, lessening muscle pain, and a sense of calm that showed me that anxiety and brain fog no longer had to be my norm!
At this point, I was knee-deep in my nutrition and health coaching master's programs and began working with Dr. Martha Beck to gain more of the spiritual mind/body aspects of this work. Combining this new knowledge with the scientific neuroplasticity tools, propelled my health and wellbeing to levels that far surpassed what I had imagined possible.

HAVE FAITH IN THE SCIENCE
Neuroplasticity: The brain's ability to rewire itself
The most empowering aspect of this science is that thoughts alone can change brain structure, and emotions are powerful enough to strengthen these new connections so that the brain remembers the changes. Once you understand this power, it brings awareness to each and every thought you create… because these thoughts directly influence your wellbeing - both positively and negatively. This online course will provide you with the proven tools and techniques to create these powerful changes in your brain and body.
8 GUIDED HEALING AUDIO SESSIONS
Often the motivation to do this "work" is there, but we just don't want to do it alone.
My Meditation Library contains 8 Guided Healing Audio Sessions to help you ease into this mind-body healing process one step at a time.
Sessions are all under 20 minutes, guided by Carrie, and can be downloaded for easy access anytime, anywhere!

You can continue in search of the "magic pill" to ease your suffering from symptoms such as exhaustion, pain, sensitivities, anxiety, and depression...
Or, you can continue to make smart medical and lifestyle choices while also taking your healing path into your own hands! Why wait for someone or something else with the "answers" when there's a big chance that the solution is available to you now? Imagine freeing yourself from the shackles of dis-ease. Ease, by definition means freedom from pain or trouble, comfort of body or mind, so "dis-ease" is an unnatural state of ease and mind.
Imagine being free to truly LIVE again!
"From the very first module--laughing!--Carrie's program began having a positive impact on me. It made me realize how seldom I laughed and how much joy was missing in my life. I started watching blooper reels from funny shows and began laughing so hard my stomach hurt. After doing this for several days, everything seemed lighter.
Reframing my situation so that it focused on the positive was huge. Lyme disease taught me one of the greatest lessons of my life, and it allowed me to become curious about what I could learn and change to make my life better, rather than be defeated by my symptoms.
Each of the modules in this course shifts the focus away from painful symptoms and experiences and on to being truly present with yourself through simple exercises that create positive feelings of well being.
I think these practices could be applied, not just to healing from debilitating illness, but to any situation causing suffering. I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to participate in this course and to begin applying these practices. Just laughing more and taking the time to focus on myself in these simple, positive ways has made a difference in my life."
JENNY P. | WASHINGTON
"Working with Carrie has been such an amazing and eye-opening experience for me! Even though our sessions have been on the phone, I can feel her "right in the room with me," completely connecting and understanding what I'm saying and feeling. As a coach, I was very inspired by her ability to guide me to find my own answers and to help me stick to plans, providing me with encouragement and with accountability at every step. As a person, Carrie is: WISE! KIND! EXPERIENCED! Without hesitation, I give her my highest recommendation as a Health and Wellness Coach."
GRETCHEN ROBBINS | Washington, DC
"Carrie’s program is exceptionally well done. Her voice is calm and soothing. The graphics are capturing. The content is professional and the course is done to perfection. It’s obvious that she spent a lot of time on it!
As soon as I saw the topic of laughter my interest peaked. From then on I found myself looking to Carrie for wisdom - her voice is soothing and her intonation is consistent."
LAURA B. | FLORIDA
"Carrie’s coaching style combines great listening with a warm and soothing yet practical style. One of her greatest strengths is an ability to look at whatever tangled situation I bring to her and help me unravel it. She’s able to immediately sense what I need and helps me arrive at creative solutions. The best part is that I always leave our sessions grounded and with so much more clarity than when I started."

In 2014, Carrie began working toward a Master's degree in Nutrition & Integrative Health.

She then received a Master's degree in Health & Wellness Coaching with an emphasis on Mind Body Healing. She has trained with industry-leading professionals, including best-selling author, life coach, and O Magazine columnist, Dr. Martha Beck, limbic system rehab specialist, Annie Hopper, and founder of The School of The Work, Byron Katie.
