    If you've ever come to a "dead end" in the medical world when searching for serious help with your health, our guest Leah Rohlf can feel your pain! She's a mom of five who found herself writing goodbye letters to her children in the ER because she was in so much pain for so long she thought she was going to die. Her body had completely shut down, and there was no help in sight--even after discovering she had markers of Lyme Disease. After three years on antibiotics and chronic pain and numbness she decided to quit everything and look for alternative methods of healing. Fast forward to now--she's a thriving entrepreneur, business owner, ministry leader, and homeschool mom that is serving Northern Colorado by bringing families natural health options at a viable price point. God is using her testimony to bring hope, encouragement, and support to families in need of alternative methods of healing in Loveland, CO. You'll love her grace-filled approach, practical advice, faith story, and sustainable lifestyle tips. (She helped me combat serious health concerns during my last pregnancy with whole food supplements, and even guided us in providing our new baby with what he needed to heal from significant gut issues without the use of antibiotics).
