Briar Jean Foley 🤍
Born 09/30/2025
6lb 0oz, 18 in

Sweet girl decided to make her entrance a whole 5.5 weeks early! We spent 10 days in the NICU and finally were able to bring her home. She has been the perfect addition to our sweet family and we are so excited we get this extra time with her 🤍. A gigantic thank you to all of our friends and family who were incredibly quick to step up and help us get all the last minute items we hadn’t gotten to yet. So many sweet friends have also made us meals, watched our boys when needed, and prayed dutifully over sweet Briar. I’m incredibly thankful for each and every one of you. The Lord has used all of you to meet every single one of our needs, it is truly incredible.

All I can say is wow. When you know better, you need to do better.

Working on training these boys up in the way they should go, one opportunity at a time. I was not raised learning the Bible, theology or scriptures at home. I was not taught to center my life and everything I do + say around Christ. I didn’t live under an example that displayed how to live it out in every aspect of life so this is a huge learning curve for me, too.

One of my favorite sayings is, “If you know better, do better.” I am fervently searching out knowledge so I can know better, in order to DO better. I hope this lights a fire in you, too! 🤍

Demonic is the only word to accurately describe the behavior I’m seeing WIDESPREAD right now.

RIP Charlie. Trying to get my emotions right with God because I know that’s what you would want.

I read this somewhere and it STUCK. It’s true!

When you know better, you do better 🤷🏼‍♀️.

The longest I’ve ever prayed for something 🥹. God you are good and worthy of praise! She’s due in Nov 🤍

Every kick, heartbeat, breath to come is the unseen handiwork of God. It’s so special he used motherhood as an example here to show us how incredible and mysterious he truly is.

As a functional nutrition health coach, I’m all about making nutrient-dense foods easy and enjoyable—starting with this simple pomegranate hack!

Pomegranates are a powerhouse of antioxidants, especially punicalagins and anthocyanins, which help fight inflammation and protect your cells from oxidative stress. They’re also rich in vitamin C, potassium, and polyphenols that support heart health, hormone balance, and even gut integrity.

If you’ve avoided pomegranates because they’re a pain to open, this reel will change that. No more mess—just juicy seeds packed with health benefits!

Have you ever tried this method before? Drop a YES or NO in the comments!

For years I asked my husband for another baby, but he said hard no.

He had a vasectomy reversal in Oct 2024 (this video is end of Feb 2025) and we had no follow up to check if it worked or not!

I prayed and prayed and prayed for a yes, and he finally told me TWO DAYS before this positive test that he “wasn’t going to not try” LOL!

God was certainly preparing his heart for what was about to happen.

We’re expecting baby 3 in early Nov.

If my son’s CONSTANT “Mom! Mom! Mom!” Is triggering you, it’s triggering me too 🤣

SURPRISE 🥳

A lot of my close friends already know, but I’ve been slackinnnnn on announcing. You guys I have been so sick- SO SICK. Like ER 4x and medication every day sick.

We are so happy to announce that we have another little sweet pea on the way! I cannot wait for that little newborn scrunch and to share more with you guys. Our journey to 3 kids is so wild and when I tell you God had a hand in it- that is an understatement.

Baby Foley is due Nov 8, but based on my past history, will probably be here in Oct. please pray for this sickness to subside so I can start to enjoy this pregnancy more! 🤰

Do you think it’s a boy or girl 👀? If you know, you are bound to silence 🤐

You guys, I quite literally cannot stress this enough…. You NEED THIS BAG. If you’re a gun toting mama, this is for you. You get quick, easy access to your firearm and it is sleek design that leaves other people none the wiser.

Safety is freedom- I mean it. You never know when you will need your firearm. But trust me when I tell you, you don’t want to be in a situation needing one and wishing you had it. Make it safe and easy to carry yours and grab one at @inde.carry. There is no better way to carry!

A different approach ⬇️

Change can be scary, I get it more than you know. It can be really hard to peel away from the only thing we know and have experience with. Especially when it comes to the care of our children.

Here is the message I want to get across: we don’t know what we don’t know. Until we as parents decide to take a deeper dive into what our children are experiencing and why, it’s going to be a hard circular loop to get out of. Functional medicine changed our lives. My son went from diagnosed level 3/4 on the ASD spectrum to non-diagnosable. Those 100% due to making changes where conventional medicine doesn’t address: lifestyle habits, diet, toxin exposure, nervous system regulation, etc.

I knew nothing about these things when my son was first diagnosed. But ya know what? I dug my heels in and read, researched and asked questions. I opened my mind to the idea that I may NOT know everything. Thank God for his mercy in leading me down this direction, because of it, my son was able to heal.

Autism is a nuanced discussion because what may work for one child, may not work for another. This is why it is so imperative to work with a knowledgeable root-cause focused practitioner. You’ve got to find someone who is just as determined as you to discover WHY your child is experiencing neurological delays and address it accordingly.

I wrote a 93 page EBOOK to walk you through everything my family did through my son’s journey. It goes over diet changes (and why!), what practitioners we used, which therapies we used, what supplements we used, etc. this information needs to be in the hands of every parent who feels lost and ready to tackle their child’s diagnosis with everything they’ve got. I poured so many hours into this book, in hopes it will provide you with adequate first steps on how you can help your child.

➡️ If you’d like the link to it, comment EBOOK and I’ll send the link to your inbox 🤍. You are not in this alone!

Hearing that at his re-evaluation is a moment I will never forget. It still brings me to tears thinking about it. It made every hard decision worth it.

I knew I had watched my son change radically after switching from conventional medicine to functional medicine, but would that be reflected on paper?

This topic can be so taboo. I have quite literally gotten unalive threats for sharing our story and telling people it IS possible. I’ve been called ableist, unloving, delusional, you name it. Name-calling won’t stop me.Our testimony has helped hundreds of families take the leap into their own health journeys.

If another mom hadn’t shared their experience reversing their child’s diagnosis, I would have never known it was possible. I changed careers from law enforcement to functional medicine because I saw the power in it.

I wrote an ebook for families about our journey, what we did, what practitioners we used, etc. it’s a whopping 93 pages and has tons of info for you to flip though. Comment EBOOK and I’ll send you the link 🖤

I watched my son slip away from me after getting his 1 year old 💉 s. He went from hitting all of his milestones, to being delayed in almost every area. He went from verbal to non verbal, happy to apathetic, and began self harming and harming others as a result of neuro-inflammation.

I was determined to get my child back. I used every possible resource and dollar to my name to get him the support he needed.

I thank GOD every day for the mom who shared her son’s reversal journey with us. Without it, we would have never known it was possible.

I have helped hundreds of families become educated on the ways we can support our ASD diagnosed kiddos outside of what conventional medicine offers us. I put it all in a 93 page ebook just for you.

Here is what I want you to know ⬇️

GLP-1s (tirzepatide, semaglutide, ozempic, wegovy, etc) do not some without risk. However, with proper guidance on nutritional and lifestyle factors, those risks can be GREATLY minimized. So many people are on these medications and have the best intentions and no guidance when it comes to optimizing their results!

I wrote an entire course to equip you to take that journey and be as successful as possible in losing the weight and keeping it off- in a healthy way!

Getting guidance doesn’t have to be hard, time consuming and expensive. I’ve taken the time to break it all down for you and provide easy-to-use resources throughout the course so you feel empowered to tackle your GLP-1 journey head on!

➡️ comment “BLUEPRINT” and I’ll send you the link to my course 🖤

What you should know ⬇️

As a functional health coach with a specialty in nutrition, my job is NOT to judge you on your health decisions. My job is to educate you and empower you to make your own decisions to better your health.

The GLP-1 conversation can be taboo for some. Someone people will toot its horn and talk about how great the medications are, some will demonize them, and some are afraid to talk about being on them. Wherever you fall on that spectrum, just know I’m here to help you!

The functional health space can be very split when it comes to the use of GLP-1s. I see practitioners jumping on the bandwagon of sharing their opinion on GLP-1s, but so few willing to tell you what it actually takes to successfully use them and minimize risk of harm.

Here is the truth: GLP-1s are NOT risk free. There are certainly side effects (some serious) that can occur with their use. My job as a functional health coach is to help walk you through the nutrition and lifestyle factors that greatly decrease your chances of experiencing these side effects. The way you eat and live your life outside of these meds can help optimize + maintain your weight loss results, even after coming off the medication!

Hiring a functional practitioner to work along side you can be expensive on top of this medication. This is why I created a course for GLP-1 users who are go-getters. The type of people who can take information and implement it without the need for accountability. It is jam packed with over 100 slides of information and resources for you to utilize and learn from!

The Simple Health Hack for a Longer, Healthier Life: HYDRATION!

Did you know that proper hydration is linked to better health, lower risk of chronic disease, and even longevity?

🚰 Studies show that staying hydrated supports metabolism, brain function, and detoxification—all key pillars of functional medicine and holistic wellness.

When you don’t drink enough water, your body struggles with:
❌ Toxin buildup & sluggish liver function
❌ Fatigue, brain fog & poor digestion
❌ Increased risk of heart, lung & kidney disease

Simple ways to boost hydration:
✅ Drink half your body weight in ounces of water daily
✅ Start your morning with a full glass of water (before coffee! ☕️)
✅ Add electrolytes (without sugar) for better absorption
✅ Eat water-rich foods like cucumbers, citrus, and watermelon 🍉

💧Hydration is a foundational part of healing in functional medicine—are you drinking enough?

If you're ready to properly hydrating, comment "WATER" and I'll send you a free printable water tracker! Print it out, stick it on your fridge, desk or even in your planner and start smashing those water goals!

My son went from ahead on all of his milestones to completely regressing and not hitting them at all. All within 48 hours of his 1 year old “well baby” visit. Routine schedule recommendations were followed and my son’s body + health paid the price.

It took a year and a half for our provider to take it serious enough to deliver a diagnosis. We decided to change directions medically and try a holistic approach- and it changed our lives. Within a year of implementing a functional approach to my son’s health, he no longer qualified for the diagnosis 🤯(every child’s timeline and healing capabilities are different).

Here are some of the things we did:
-Diet overhaul
-Filtered water
-Naturopathic care
-Homeopathic detox regimen
-Chiropractic care
-Craniosacral therapy
-Detox baths
-Switched home + personal products to non tox versions
-Speech therapy
-Occupational therapy
-Behavioral therapy

Working mom or SAHM, BOTH can be honorable. I just want to highlight this specifically:

You are not, and never will be, less-than because you choose to raise your children instead of work a different job. You are incredibly valuable to your home, your husband a your children. Don’t let society and the world tell you otherwise.

Cycle Syncing Nutrition: Eat for Your Hormones! 🍽✨

Did you know that your body’s nutritional needs change throughout your menstrual cycle? When you eat the right foods at the right time, you can support your hormones naturally—leading to better energy, fewer PMS symptoms, and improved mood!

🌿 Here’s how to eat for each phase of your cycle:

🔴 Menstrual Phase (Days 1-5) → Focus on iron-rich foods to replenish lost nutrients and reduce fatigue. Think grass-fed beef, salmon, leafy greens, and beets to support red blood cell production and prevent low energy.

🟠 Follicular Phase (Days 6-14) → Estrogen is rising, so support your metabolism and gut health with fermented foods, lean proteins, avocado, and citrus fruits to boost digestion, energy, and mental clarity.

🟡 Ovulatory Phase (Days 15-17) → Your body is in peak fertility mode! Support detoxification and egg quality with cruciferous veggies (broccoli, cabbage, Brussels sprouts), flaxseeds, and antioxidant-rich berries to help clear excess estrogen and reduce bloating.

🔵 Luteal Phase (Days 18-28) → Progesterone takes over, and cravings kick in! Balance blood sugar and curb PMS symptoms by eating complex carbs (sweet potatoes, quinoa), magnesium-rich nuts (almonds, sunflower seeds), and hormone-loving foods like dark chocolate and chamomile tea.

✨ Why cycle syncing works:
• Reduces bloating & mood swings
• Supports metabolism & digestion
• Minimizes PMS & painful periods
• Increases energy & mental clarity

Progesterone 101

Struggling with PMS, irregular periods, anxiety, poor sleep, or fertility issues? Your progesterone levels might be out of balance!

Progesterone is a key hormone that regulates your menstrual cycle, supports pregnancy, and keeps estrogen in check. But in today’s world, stress, toxins, and poor diet can deplete progesterone, leading to hormonal imbalances like estrogen dominance.

In this post, you’ll learn:
-What progesterone does in your body
-How it fluctuates through the 4 phases of your cycle
-Why balancing progesterone with estrogen is critical
-Signs of low progesterone (hint: it’s more common than you think!)
-Lifestyle & diet tips to naturally boost progesterone

Don’t believe me? Take the time to read “Turtles all the way down” by Anonymous. It’ll shed all the light you need on this topic to be well informed.

Have you tried every diet under the sun and nothing is working? 🌞 It’s time to go back to the basics—your body doesn’t need another fad diet; it needs nourishment and balance!

Whole foods are a game-changer for weight loss. Unlike processed foods that are loaded with hidden sugars, refined oils, and artificial additives, whole foods provide the nutrients your body needs to thrive. 🥗 Studies show that diets rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats can reduce inflammation and stabilize blood sugar, both of which are crucial for a healthy metabolism.

But here’s where it gets even more interesting: aligning your eating habits with your circadian rhythm can amplify your weight loss efforts. 🌙 Research shows that eating earlier in the day when your metabolism is most active (and avoiding late-night meals) can improve fat burning and support overall metabolic health. A study published in the journal Obesity found that participants who ate their largest meal earlier in the day lost more weight compared to those who ate the same calories later.

Why does this work? Your metabolism follows your body’s natural clock, with digestion and insulin sensitivity peaking earlier in the day. Eating whole, nutrient-dense foods during daylight hours gives your body what it needs without overloading your system at night, when it’s primed for rest and repair.

So instead of focusing on calorie restriction, try this approach:
-Prioritize whole foods over processed foods.
-Eat when the sun is up and stop when it goes down.
-Hydrate, move your body, and get quality sleep.

Share this with someone who needs a fresh approach to weight loss, and let me know in the comments—what’s your favorite whole food meal?!

I hear how deeply this impacts you—it’s heartbreaking when others dismiss those real changes in your child by suggesting you’ve ‘just missed them’ before. But remember: YOU, mama, are the expert on your child’s rhythms and needs. If your gut says something isn’t right, trust that inner voice—it’s your God-given motherly intuition guiding you. Document every shift you see, from behavior to sleep, and choose practitioners who respect your observations instead of dismiss them. You deserve to be heard, and your child deserves an advocate who never stops fighting for them. Your intuition is powerful—lean into it!
