truly shine
Inspiring your health and wellness by getting to the root cause of disease.
Health isn’t about being perfect.
It’s about having a body that feels strong and steady enough to carry you through life. A body that bounces back. One that doesn’t feel like it’s constantly under pressure. I’ve been through a lot. Gut issues, acne, hormonal shifts, disordered eating, autoimmune flares, food reactions, chronic stress. When I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at sixteen, it sent me down a path of restriction, control, and obsession. I lost myself in it for a while but over time, I found balance.
These days, it’s hard to know what to believe. The health world is full of extremes, quick fixes, and contradicting advice. My approach is different. It’s functional medicine, yes, but really it’s just common sense, layered with curiosity and a deep respect for your individual body.
Because healing doesn’t come from doing everything right. It comes from tuning in, getting clear on the root causes, and rebuilding trust with your body. That’s the work I do. And I’d love to walk that path with you.
Love, Deborah
About the author
Deborah Freudenmann
Welcome, friend. I’m Deborah - a naturopath and mama to one spirited little boy. My work is rooted in one simple belief: your body is always speaking, and when we learn to listen, healing becomes possible. I’m not here with a sales pitch or a set of rules. I’m someone who’s lived through gut issues, hormonal imbalances, autoimmune disease, disordered eating, and the kind of stress that unravels you. I like to think of myself as a friend, sharing what I’ve learned in the hope that it might help you too.
Unfortunately we’re not taught how health truly works - how everyday symptoms like acne, fatigue, or bloating are signs, not flaws. That’s what I want to change. Functional medicine gives us the tools to explore what’s happening beneath the surface and support the body’s natural ability to come back into balance. Sometimes it’s with supplements, herbs or nutrition. Sometimes rest. Sometimes emotional work. But always with curiosity, compassion, and care.
