“I just have no energy. I'm run down. Nothing seems fun anymore. I just stay inside." -- DJ


Our world moves at a hectic pace.

It’s easy to slip into survival mode. Getting by day-to-day without truly feeling alive or fulfilled. Not taking care of ourselves, we’re tired, over-scheduled, and unhappy. 


We worry about the toll our lifestyles will have on our health.

                                                                                                                                             
What if we can stop weathering the storms and start dancing in the rain? What if we could shift from merely surviving to truly THRIVING?

A key step in this journey is understanding and improving our health. It starts with something as routine as our blood test numbers.

Acceptable vs. Exceptional Lab Numbers
When it comes to our health, our lab numbers are a key factor in understanding where we stand. Physicians commonly use blood tests to assess how we're doing. Lab work can identify illnesses and guide treatment plans.

But having acceptable lab numbers is different from achieving exceptional ones. Acceptable lab results may imply you're not at immediate risk for certain diseases. But exceptional numbers point to optimal health and an improved quality of life.
 
Decoding Blood Test Results
Blood test results often come with a reference range. These values are considered to be normal. They're based on population averages. When numbers are within this range, it usually means nothing is alarming about your health. But these ranges can be wide. They may not reflect a person's best health.

And especially troublesome is when numbers drift from acceptable into risky territories.
 
Exceptional numbers brighten your life
Beyond preventing illness, exceptional lab numbers bring you more energy and fewer medications. So you're better able to enjoy life and do the things that you love -- all in a strong and healthy body.

When we're talking about health, acceptable is one thing. But exceptional could unlock a new level of living well. And living well is THRIVING!

When we thrive, we are energetic and alive. We look for new opportunities to grow. We take on challenges that allow us to grow from within. We are independent and strong.That’s what I want for YOU
And that’s why I’m offering a FREE Workshop. It’s part of my new Thrive Series:

This blog is dedicated to Irl Flanagan, who was my friend and grammar mentor. Over the last 20 or so years, he spent countless hours editing my manuscripts and teaching me the intricacies of sentence structure and the true meaning and the proper usage of words. 

Irl died 4 months before his 100th birthday.

Meet Peggy

 
Peggy Kraus is an exercise physiologist and diabetes care and education specialist. Her clients say her superpower is helping people reverse type 2 diabetes—but the impact of her work goes far beyond that.

With almost 30 years in cardiac rehab, Peggy has seen firsthand how the American diet has taken a toll on so many lives, leading to chronic disease and unnecessary suffering. She knows health isn't just about managing symptoms—it’s about reversing disease when possible, feeling strong and energized, and thriving.

Over the years, she’s helped thousands of people lower blood sugar, lose weight, improve cholesterol, and reduce blood pressure—all with simple, strategic lifestyle changes. Her 6-week program, 5 to Thrive, is built on five key strategies that her most successful students have used to create lasting health transformations.

Her upcoming program, Diabetes Rescue, is a type 2 diabetes reversal program designed to give people the tools to take back control of their health and make lasting changes—so they can say goodbye to diabetes for good and reclaim the vibrant life they deserve.

Her plant-based approach is powerful. And so are the results her clients achieve.
