Sincerely, Beans.

I grew up in a health-conscious family so always considered myself 'healthy' and armed with enough knowledge about how to support my health. But after suffering from weight, adrenal fatigue, thyroid and other associated issues my entire life I got fed up constantly feeling like I had a limited amount of energy that I had to use sparingly and that no matter how much I exercised and how well I thought I ate, I was always carrying a few extra pounds. I had also spent most of my 20s in and out of every possible functional doctor / naturopath / acupuncturist / healer, none of which ever made a difference to my health so by the time I found Unique I was really looking for another way.

I had a false start on the bean protocol in Feb 2020 in that I did it for a month, felt some benefits and then life got in the way and I slipped back into my usual habits. Fast forward to May 2020, I had a miscarriage followed by 5 months of rapidly declining health, an inability to conceive again after falling pregnant on the first go and spent thousands on doctors and health professionals who could not figure out what was going on. Exasperated, I reached out to Unique (who was so amazingly supportive, empathetic and understanding of the hole I was in) and got myself back on the protocol. My digestive system improved almost overnight and my cycle came back after a month. Three months into the protocol, we conceived and I'm now 14 weeks pregnant!

My relationship with food has totally changed thanks to Unique and The Bean Protocol. I now see food as medicine and although I still have some way to go, I feel so empowered and so lucky to know I have the tools to continue supporting my healing journey. Unique is incredible, you know she's walked in your shoes and understands how frustrating and hard the healing path can be. She's also not judgemental or forceful in her approach - she gently guides you in the right direction, helping you understand the impact food is having on the body so you learn how to make the best food and lifestyle decisions for you. She's also incredibly responsive to every little random thought or question. I'm so grateful to have found Unique and beans!
