About

Maybe you found this site because something about your water has been nagging at you. Or maybe you're a mom who's tired of wellness advice that sounds good but doesn't hold up — and you're looking for someone who's actually done the homework.

Either way, you're in the right place.

Hi, I'm Nicole.

I'm a certified herbalist, homeschooling mom, and the researcher and writer behind Beautifully Rebalanced. I'm also currently pursuing my Doctorate in Naturopathy, which means I spend a lot of time in the weeds of biochemistry, biology, and herbalism, so you don't have to.

My work has been published on MSN, the AP newswire, Wealth of Geeks, and several news outlets across the country. But the credential I'm most proud of isn't on any resume — it's that I've lived the health journey I write about, and I came out the other side with my faith intact and a very different relationship with what I put in and on my body.

My story starts in the Middle East.

I served six years in the US Navy as an information and research analyst. In 2005, I was medically evacuated from the Middle East — in part due to the effects of chlorinated shower water and other environmental exposures that compounded into a cascade of health complications I didn't fully understand until years later.

What followed was eight years of diagnoses: Lupus, Fibromyalgia, MS symptoms, seizures, TBI, Raynaud's, and more. Doctors told me at 26 not to expect to live past 30. I spent time homeless, broken, and helpless. And through support from unexpected sources that can only be explained as divine intervention, I became one of the lost who was found.

What improved my quality of life wasn't a single product or protocol. It was a total reduction of my toxic burden — the food I ate, the products I used, the water I drank and bathed in every single day, and most importantly, what came out of my mind. When I finally started paying attention to water specifically, things shifted in ways I hadn't expected.

That's how this site was born.

What Beautifully Rebalanced is about.

This site exists to help faith-rooted families cut through the noise on water quality and home wellness — with research-backed information and honest product guidance you can actually trust.

What I strive to be: no hype, no nonsense… just documenting the results of what I've researched and experienced in a manner that gives you straight answers.

And if you're also looking for an income that fits your life…

I'm an Enagic affiliate distributor and water mentor, which means I partner with families to bring Kangen water systems into their homes — and I mentor women who want to build a values-aligned income stream around the same mission. If that's on your radar, there's a path for you here too.

A little more about me:

I homeschool my kids unconventionally. I almost always have a dog by my side. I've lived in 22 cities across 12 states, and a foreign country. I grow a garden, do needlepoint, and cook almost everything from scratch. My faith is not background noise in my life — it is the reason I'm still standing, and my highest priority.

She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard. — Proverbs 31:16
