I help women with Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism reverse their disease so that they can lose weight, have all day energy, and feel amazing again.
A bit about me…
Hi! My name is Michele Spring, and I'm a Health Coach, the founder of Thriving Autoimmune, wife, and mom to two boys
I battled for 8 years with bone-deep fatigue, heart palpitations, hair loss, irregular heavy periods, low-grade fevers, chills, brain fog, inability to lose weight, and the myriad of other symptoms of Hypothyroidism. There were times I'd cry alone in my closet because I was convinced I was dying.
Even though I was on Levothyroxine, regularly getting labs taken, and doing exactly what my doctor told me to do, I could never seem to feel better for long! It was ridiculously frustrating and defeating.
Despite my symptoms being dismissed by my doctor and unsuccessfully getting answers from other doctors, I finally found a functional medicine practitioner who diagnosed me with Hashimoto's.
He told me that it was an autoimmune disease and it actually caused my Hypothyroidism! I had NO idea that the Levothyroxine did nothing to stop my thyroid from being destroyed and that 90% of Hypothyroid cases are due to Hashimoto's!
Armed with this knowledge, I set about stopping the autoimmunity so that I could get my life back. I changed my diet so that I could reverse the inflammation, stop the immune system overreaction, and end the autoimmunity – and in just a few short weeks I felt better than I had in over 15 years!!!
It helped me go from that helpless mom to one who camps, hikes rigorous mountain trails with my family, loves yoga, Pilates, and Barre workouts, and best of all – hangs out with my kids (now teenagers) for as long as I want. All of my symptoms are gone, I am at my perfect weight, and I feel a vibrancy and zest for life that I didn’t even know was possible!
AND THAT'S WHAT I WANT FOR YOU TOO…
I've spent the last decade helping others get their lives back. Through coaching hundreds of people, earning numerous certifications in nutrition, gut health, mind body connection, exercise, and more, endless research, experimentation, and more…
… I've found what works and what is just plain noise (or even harmful). As a result, my clients enjoy all day energy, clarity of thinking, bodies they love, and just feel amazing.
And that's what I share here and in my membership!
You CAN be that vibrant, truly great-feeling woman again, and I can show you how.
Some of the women I've helped:
“Your program has changed my life in the last couple of months and I'm so proud of what I've accomplished and it wouldn't have been possible without you and your support.
I'm deeply grateful for you and what you've created is life giving. Truly. I didn't realize how bad it was until I went on your program and now looking back I never felt healthier and clean. My energy feels clear, my brain fog has lifted, and has even helped my cycle and my adhd.”
“I think the most helpful thing I've learned is that I'm not alone. This diet change works, many of us have searched for months if not years for answers, and it's an incredible thing that we have this place to come to in order to ask questions, share thoughts, and be there for each other. It's a wonderful feeling to know you're not alone”
“I want to thank you very much for the dramatic shift you encouraged me to take. Last October I was in a really rough spot of Hashimoto symptoms. I have been on Synthroid for 22 years beginning at the age of 21. I don't think things were as bad at that point, but as you know things get worse as you get older.
I have bounds more energy now! Looking forward to spring for gardening, pursuing aromatherapy from a business aspect, helping encourage others that each little step really does make a difference.
When I was in my late teens and working at a fast food restaurant people often commented that I sang as I worked (I didn‘t realize it until it was pointed out to me).
In the last month I have found myself singing again as I am working around the house! Somewhere along the way the energy for singing left me; it was all I could do to get through the day's tasks of taking care of my family anything beyond that was overwhelming. You helped me to get ME back, thank you.
Imagine…
… waking up refreshed, bounding out of bed, pain-free, energetically greeting your family, friends, and co-workers as you go about your day. You feel clear-headed, people comment on how you’re glowing, and you still feel great even on those days where you *might* have scheduled a few too many things. Plus your digestion is great and you feel ah-MAZ-ing in your brand new jeans – no bloating and puffiness!
Bad days are largely a thing of the past as conquering to-do lists, exercise, lunches with friends, trips with your family, and chasing your kids around are now typical, normal things you do with ease.
This doesn’t have to just be a dream.
Living with a thyroid condition can be so frustrating
It can feel like everything is out of your control and you just have to “deal with it.”
BUT THIS DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THE CASE
“I have been having alot of issues over the years and the past year I've been struggling a bit with thyroid (they say I have Hashimoto's) and ” heart ” issues. Since they can't tell me much about the heart, other than a leaky valve, I was getting desperate to feel better, so I decided, that I would at least try this diet ( although the doctor said diet won't help). So having the information you share, plus the recipes, has definitely been very helpful!! I definitely already feel better and have lost weight and have less inflammation!“
