Sharing about Self-Love ❤️ Self-Expression ✨ Meaningful Connections 🫶🏼 & Living With Illnesses 💜 Thanks

This is a group/page created by me (Taylor Miller, 20 yrs old) for anyone on a gluten free diet. One of my main goals for creating this page is to help anybody in need with Celiac or a gluten intolerance. I will try my hardest to make this the best place for anyone to feel comfortable, ask questions, and get answers. If there are any foods you miss or want to find while being on a gluten free diet

I will do everything I can to find a great GF alternative for you and post it! Please check out my blog where all the info on this page comes from!

There are people in my life that are no good for me, yet I still have moments where I miss them.

I used to push our memories away. They hurt too much, so why spend a moment thinking about them?

That pain, whether I was thinking about it or not, stayed with me.

“I can’t believe they threw me away like that.”
“I can’t believe I was stupid enough to trust them.”
“Why did I let them in to begin with?”

These intrusive thoughts brought me no benefit, only anger and sorrow.

I had to change the way I reflected on these people in my life. Not only to relinquish my pain, but to see MY part in the fallout too.

Thanks to therapy, I was given some new questions to ask myself.

“Who were they when we met?”
“Who was I when we met?”
“How did we change and get to where we are now?”

These questions allowed me to take a step back, remove my emotions for a moment, and instead, reflect on our own individual journeys.

Almost every time I asked myself these questions I ended up with the same affirming conclusion.

“We are not good for each other anymore.”

I know it. Maybe they do or don’t know it. But I myself am determining that this person is not healthy for me anymore, nor am I healthy for them, and that’s ok.

The more I sit with these thoughts, the more I can accept where I’m at now.

Instead of pain, I now see that it can be a pleasure to miss someone. It means we had something worth missing, and y’know what, that’s special.

To all the people that I miss, I hope you are well. With a little love (and for some of you) a LOT of growth, our paths may cross again. If not, I hope you get the opportunity to think fondly on our memories, as I often do. ❤️

-Taylor

My new favorite colors to wear - all of them 🌈✨😊

This has come a long way from the colors I used to wear as a kid - dark, neutral tones.

Back then, I was bullied when I tried to express myself, and blending in became a way to protect myself, not express who I am.

Since recognizing this, I’ve made a choice to surround myself with more loving, supportive people, and now I feel free to explore my true colors. 🌈

Now, I may have swung REALLY hard in the other direction by wearing all the colors at once 😂, but you know what, f*ck it. After a whole life of wearing what’s “safe”, I deserve to wear whatever I want, and you do too.

Maybe now I wear all the colors, maybe next week I wear just a few. All I know is that this outfit brings me joy. 😌

My takeaway - Not everyone will love you or what you wear, and that’s ok. Feeling confident in your own clothes, your own shoes, and your own skin is what matters most. ❤️

You did it! ☀️

Idk about you, but the winter always hits me harder than I realize, especially when living in the Midwest.

Cold weather + gloomy skies = hibernating in my home.

If winter has been tough for your mental health, take solace in the fact that brighter (literally brighter!) days are ahead 😊

Today’s way-too-late post comes from Halloween! I had so much fun going all out with Erica this year. 😁 This is the one time out of the year that I decide to shave my beard, and going as Brian Fantana from Anchorman definitely made it worth it 😂

Even though Halloween has passed, I grew up believing that age should never keep us from having fun and being silly. No matter what time of year it is, don’t stop doing what brings out your inner child and don’t stop doing what brings you joy. 😊 I hope you had a wonderful holidays!

I’m very ready for fall spooky season, can you tell? 🍁

This summer has easily been one of the hardest times in recent years, but it has brought me a ton of growth. A reason I love the changing seasons is because it represents the death of one thing and the growth of something new. I feel like that’s very symbolic for how us wonderful humans live our lives.

While we may outgrow parts of life in one season, there is always opportunity for us to grow into something beautiful in another. As long as we keep nurturing ourselves, we have the ability to continuously grow into the healthiest versions of ourselves that we want to be.

If you don’t like where you’re at now, trust that change will come. If you do like where you’re at now, remain humble and appreciate what will not last forever.

Life is full of seasons. Find your peace through it all and remain hopeful for what’s ahead ❤️

It’s been AGES since I got a headshot! I’m pretty happy with how it turned out 😊

I rarely share about my professional life, but I’m keeping busy per usual. I’ve been at Digital Third Coast for 1.5 years, I’m still managing social media for HaleLife Bakery, and I finally got this account back! Despite all of this work, I’m keeping a MUCH better work/life balance compared to the past. 😌

The biggest lesson I’ve learned over the last few months - when life gets busy, keep making time for what brings you joy ❤️

3 Things That Helped Me Gain More Self Love/Self Worth 😊

Until about 5 years ago I lived most of my life in fear of what people thought of me. What changed? I gained more self love and self worth. Once I started paying attention to how I treated others, I started becoming more critical of the treatment I deserve.

I’m kind-hearted, loving, and supportive, so don’t I deserve the same treatment back? Well, when you have traumatic experiences plus controlling people in your life, it becomes a lot harder to realize your own worth than you think.

3 Things That Helped Me Gain More Self Love/Self Worth:
Therapy Therapy Therapy - We cannot punish ourselves for the things that happened to us when we were children. We deserve forgiveness and we deserve grace. ❤️

Affirmations - Look in the mirror and say 3 things you love about yourself. Do this every day. This will become a habit and truly change the way you think. ✨

Journaling - This has become my greatest tool for processing difficult thoughts and emotions. I am more mindful of what I feel and better at communicating because of it. 😌

I still have SO much to learn, but I can say that I am MUCH happier now that I have more love for who I am. After all, I deserve it 🥰

Be kind to yourself and surround yourself with people who give you room to grow ❤️ Your life will surely benefit from it. I know mine did ☺️

I used to fear what people thought about me. 🌧️

“It’s unattractive when men cry.”
“Don’t wear makeup around me, it’s embarrassing.”

These are things that friends or girlfriends told me as I was trying to explore myself. It devastated and confused me. I mean, how would it not?

“What is wrong with me?”
“Am I too feminine?”
“Am I unlovable?”

I battled these questions for years because of the oppressive people in my life.

I’m kind, caring, sweet, silly, generous, and thoughtful. I don’t deserve to be treated as less than. Nobody does.

Once I started fully acknowledging these traits about myself, I started becoming more critical of the treatment I deserve.

From then on out I slowly started to cut the toxic people out of my life, all while inviting more supportive people in. Only then did I start to see a change, mainly in the love I deserve too. ❤️

It’s been a long journey. I still have so much to unlearn after how I was treated for years, but what’s important is that I am so much happier now compared to before. 💛

Final message ✨ Protect your energy, cut out the toxic people in your life, and invest in those who give you unconditional love and support.

Your life will surely benefit from it. I know mine did ❤️

Pride is much more than parades and rainbows 🌈

I came out on pride 5 years ago. I still remember it as one of the most freeing experiences. 🥰 Not just from fully accepting who I am…but from receiving support from the people I care about most - My mom, my friends, my community. ❤️

Without their support, my coming out story would have been much different.

Their support has only allowed me to further find love and acceptance for who I am. Why? Because I can authentically share my journey without fear or judgement. That’s special, and that’s what every human deserves ❤️

Pride month isn’t just for those who are q***r. Pride month is a month where you can show support for your q***r friends and family members too.

Whether you’re a part of the community, or you’re a strong ally, your support is arguably what matters most, and we’re so lucky to have you. ❤️

Happy pride month! 😊

The traits I love most about myself comes from these 2 women; my mom and my grandma ❤️

My openness, love, strength, care, and silliness are all a result of being a son and grandson to them. They have been through so much, yet they always find a way to find strength, humor, and beauty in it all. The best part? Our relationship continues to grow. What more could I ask for? 😌

This post is dedicated to all of the amazing moms out there, but more specifically, the moms who have spent most of their lives raising children on their own.

You are valued, you are loved, and from my point of view…you are absolutely making the world a better place ❤️ Happy belated Mother’s Day, moms!

This is the single best piece of advice I have received for living with chronic pain.

“We are all given 24 hours a day. If we’re lucky, we will all spend roughly the same amount of time here on earth. Most things in life are out of your control, but what is in your control is what you choose to embrace.

Next time you feel overwhelmed by your pain, don’t push it away. Acknowledge it. Ask yourself, am I doing all that I can to take care of myself in this moment? If the answer is yes, then you are doing okay.”

I may have a body that gives me more pain than others, and that feels unfair, but pain is only a part of my experience. It is not the whole experience. No matter how much pain I feel in life, it does not take away from this one fact - I deserve to embrace every moment of my time here on earth.

This is a reminder to take care of yourself, put energy into what you can control, and don’t forget to enjoy the beauty of life along the way ❤️

*The last 2 photos were taken right after having FIVE wisdom teeth removed. I don’t remember it all, but I think it represents well how I go about life despite my pain 😂

This is the face of someone who no longer has an active narcissist in his life ✨

I’m not going to lie, I’m pretty nervous sharing this post. But at the same time I also feel liberated doing so.

I had a narcissist in my life for 15 years and I just got away 3 months ago. I use the term “got away” because narcissists are so good at gaslighting, so good at ruling your life without you even knowing it.

Traits of someone with Narcissistic Personality Disorder:
- Strong need for admiration
- Uses emotions to manipulate people
- Lacks compassion or empathy for others
- Feels that they are always right
- Frequently feels wronged by others

I became afraid to express my authentic self because of this person, afraid to share about my journey, and afraid to truly explore who I am. I’ve shared that my health is part of the reason why I haven’t posted in 2 years, but in order for me to share again, I want to be honest about my whole journey; how this person (who is no longer in my life) is the biggest reason why I stopped sharing.

For so long, I hid myself in fear of what this narcissist would think…but I will hide no more. I am a person who is capable of sharing so much love with this world. I deserve to explore myself and express who I am, no matter what anyone thinks.

Now that this person is out of my life, the best way I can express how I feel is, “I feel free.” ❤️ Free from judgement, fear, and ridicule. Free to explore whoever I want to be.

Narcissists may not be very common (5% of the general population), but you know what is? People who share a negative opinion on your image & self-expression. To those who don’t stop judging others, even when being being asked to kindly respect our choices, f**k em’ 🖕🏼

Let my story be a message to keep being you and to keep exploring what makes you happy, no matter what anyone else thinks. 💛

Hi there! It’s Taylor (previously HaleLife Taylor, and before that, GlutenAway). Remember me? Long time, no see! 😊 You may be wondering where I’ve been all this time. Well, let me give you a little overview.

Those who have followed my journey (starting at 15 years old in 2013 🤯) know I have dealt with health problems most of my life. First Celiac Disease, then an Adrenal Insufficiency, and finally, POTS. I thought that was the extent of my health problems, but NOPE; The fun didn’t stop there.

In 2021 I got diagnosed with Lyme Disease and toxic mold poisoning. This meant I had to undergo an intensive treatment (which I’m still undergoing today), and I had to give up nearly everything I owned. How is giving up my belongings related to my health, you ask? Well, it turned out that the black mold was everywhere in my home, I mean EVERYWHERE. This meant that most of my belongings could not be saved or brought with me if I wanted to improve my health. Big yikes 🫠

At 23 years old I found myself having to start from scratch. New clothing, new furniture, new home, and unintentionally, new people in my life. Fast forward to today and I now live in a nice townhome with my partner and 5 pets, I have a wonderful job, amazing friends, improving health, and I truly feel in the best headspace of my life. 💛

My life hasn’t been short of trials, but if you know me you know I am someone who is open and honest about everything I go through. I’m here again, ready to post and share about overcoming the difficulties that life offers, and I’m so excited to have you a part of this journey too. ❤️ You can expect a post from me explaining the new name change and what I plan to share this year!

Now that I’ve shared a bit about myself these last couple years, I want to hear from you! How have you been? How has the pandemic treated you? Please comment below! I plan to read and respond to all of your comments in the coming days 😊

06/05/2022

I have a big favor to ask of you! My Instagram account was hacked and they are threatening people and asking people for money. I need your help to report this account so I can get control back. Please! Search on Instagram, shake your phone, and a report profile option will come up. Please say it was hacked, they are asking people for money, and you know the original owner, Taylor Miller.

Thank you tons!! I hope this works, and I really hope to be back to posting soon. ❤️ Hope you are happy, healthy, and well!

I finally got a diagnosis for my deteriorating health ✨ but idk how to feel about it yet.

Last month I discovered that my home is filled with black mold, so that’s been unbelievably stressful. Remediation isn’t an option since the house was built in 1900, but fortunately my partner and I are planning on moving to Washington state in February 2022.

What’s made my days even tougher? My health. It’s continued to get worse this year and I’ve been spending so much time and money trying to figure it out.

After seeing every specialist through conventional medicine I decided to pursue functional medicine with a celiac and autoimmune specialist instead.

Basically (from living in a house with toxic mold for 3 years) I learned that the mold toxicity in my body is extremely high and includes all 5 types of mold. Fun right?

Not only that but I also learned that I have markers for Lyme disease which I’ve suspected for SO long. Most of my life, actually, but all of my conventional doctors have dismissed it…Every. Single. Time. If you know anything about Lyme Disease you know it’s a pain to diagnose…but that’s a rant for another day. Fellow Lyme Disease friends, hi! I am now a part of your cool club. 🙃

Where I stand now after a year of deteriorating health is…I’m exhausted. Honestly truly exhausted. It really hasn’t hit me that I finally have answers to correct my health, but I’m not too surprised. My therapist so perfectly stated, “you’re just being cautiously optimistic”, and that’s about right lol, but since I’m beginning treatment today I believe I’ll start to celebrate my answers soon.

Until then I remain grateful; grateful for an answer and a treatment plan to follow. Grateful for a direction to potentially better my health at age 24. After all, this potential is a hell of a lot better than the hopelessness I was beginning to feel this year.

I’ve had a pretty rough year…but after writing this and seeing where I am now I’d say I’m on my way to doing ok 🧡.

I’ve always told myself, “Don’t let your illness be your identity. You are more than your illness.” It wasn’t until today that I realized a lot of my identity is centered around having illnesses, and that’s tough to admit to myself.

I was 15 years old when I created this page with the sole purpose of helping those with illnesses feel less alone. At 15 I was extremely sick, home schooled, and I honestly lacked much of a social life (besides socializing at expos with those who had similar invisible illnesses like me.)

To put it bluntly, starting this page gave me a purpose. It grew my empathy, it made me feel like I was making a difference in the world, and it truly made me feel less alone.

With all that being said, it’s so easy to see how my invisible illnesses became such a huge part of my identity and that’s ok. What’s important now is that I want to prove to myself that I am more than my illnesses.

Now that I’m 24, having normal 20’s experiences, and working towards being the most authentic version of myself, I don’t want my illnesses to control my life anymore.

So how do I focus on growing my identity to be more me? I focus less on what is out of my control, and more on what is in my control. More activity, less sedentary. More appreciation, less worry. More love for myself, less hate for what I wish I could change about my body. I’m going to practice all these things and know that it is a “practice”, because when so much of your life is focused on feeling “normal” again, practicing these things is not easy.

At the end of the day being happy with the current version of myself is what matters most…my illnesses may be out of my control, they may have defined much of my identity in the past, but it’s never to late to say “I am more than what my illnesses limit me to be…I am me.”

With a new found perspective on this, I say once again…don’t let your illness be your identity. Let your identity be YOU.

Thank you. 💛

I had a long week so naturally I was craving pizza 🍕, but this celiac doesn’t trust Dominos, and my last pizza experience with a “local gluten-free restaurant” was HORRIBLE.

So tonight I set out to make my own gluten-free BBQ Pizza (the shrimp was last minute 🍤) and it was SO much better than I thought it would be!

Have you also found that gluten-free food made from home is sometimes better than gluten-free food from a restaurant?

I haven’t really thought about it before, but I guess asking for a gluten-free dish at a restaurant often means that they remove ingredients…while at home we are able to create whatever we want with the ingredients that we KNOW works.

Point of my story: Yea, I still want the experience of ordering a pizza again because…well, I miss it. But this incredible, soft crusted, perfectly seasoned pizza that I made has taught me that sometimes it’s just better to save $52 and have a better experience at home. 😌

P.S. Yes, the pizza I had delivered last week was really $52 🤦‍♂️

THIS ❤️ Doctors who try to connect with their patients (especially children) stand out from the rest, and we need more of them!

As a former child who spent most of my time in and out of the hospital, I’ve dealt with the doctors who don’t care, the doctors who don’t listen, the doctors who treat me like just another patient.

It hurts. If our doctors aren’t showing care, if kids, teens, and parents aren’t seeing results, what happens? We become adults, we grow older. With our age we tend to need doctors more, yet our trust and desire to come back to the doctor diminishes.

It’s an unhealthy cycle; a cycle we shouldn’t have in our world.

This cycle needs to break.

The more comfortable a child feels going to the doctor, the healthier of a relationship they will have with their body and overall health.

We need more warmth in the medical field. I can only hope that more pediatricians use tools like the one in the photo to make a doctors visit a little more comfortable for children.

After all, paying for our healthcare in America is already tough enough, so shouldn’t what we’re paying for be what our children deserve? I sure think so. And we all deserve it too.

08/07/2021

I’m so lucky I have people in my life who “get it”. ❤️ From my partner making sure I have options when we go out, to my friends making me gluten-free food when we have get-togethers…they may not be gluten-free, but the care they have makes all the difference. 😌

Btw can you believe I’ve been sharing my gluten-free journey on here since I was 15 YEARS OLD? 😱 That’s nearly 10 years ago!!

Lil life+career update: Since starting my career with Sonoma Flatbreads (my favorite gluten-free pizza company) at 20 years old, my role has grown SO much!

I first started out by consulting for their social media.

Then I began creating the social media posts for their page.

Slowly and surely I grew my role more and more until where I sit today. Now, I have full control of Sonoma Flatbreads Social Media, Marketing, Advertising, Photography, Customer Service, and more!

It’s been incredible to build this level of trust with them over the years. I’ve learned so much and I’ve gained so much creative freedom as they’ve trusted me more.

Now a days I get to regularly create gluten-free posts just like this photo, and it’s honestly my favorite thing. ❤️

Since I don’t share too much gluten-free content on here anymore, I’d give Sonoma Flatbreads a follow if you still wanna see that from me!

They aren’t paying me at all to say this stuff haha but I thought it’d be good to share where I’m at with my career now that’s it’s been a couple years. And don’t worry, HaleLife Bakery is still keeping me busy too 😉

If you’ve read this far, thank you for reading!! Out of curiosity, do you have anyone in your life who understands why you’re gluten-free?

FIRST time in Vegas! 🍾

What I learned:
Vegas is EXPENSIVE. 💵
Gluten-free options are actually incredible and plentiful. 😍
I like sight seeing more than I do gambling, but it’s SO easy to get sucked into those slots. 🎰😅
It is freakin’ HOT in June. 🥵 (120 when I was there)
I would totally go back again with a littleee more planning for shows and tours. 🎭
Vegas, like any trip, is wonderful because of the people you’re with. ❤️

Have you been to Vegas before? What did you think? 🤔

Small additional life update: My blood pressure is MUCH better than it was in May. Lowering my medications has helped so much. Now instead of my blood pressure being at 190/120 like earlier this year, my blood pressure has been around 115/78. Right where it should be 😌

I’m still dealing with some ongoing health issues, but I’m now pursuing a new route with a Lyme Disease Specialist that I feel confident about.

Overall, from therapy, my new found openness with everyone in my life, and hard work on myself, I can truly say that I’m feeling more like myself each and every day. ❤️

Acknowledging now that I have anxiety has given me a sense of empowerment that I’ve never had before. Of course some days are still tough because…well…anxiety is tough. But as they say, recognizing is the first step, and I’m so much happier now recognizing the triggers that I never saw before. (Thanks therapy 😉, and my wonderful partner who has helped so much)

Anyways, I think about y’all who have followed me and y’all who read anything I write oh so often. ❤️ I hope you’re happy, healthy, and well and I hope you have a wonderful 4th of July Weekend! 😊

19/06/2021

I’ve been taking 5-10 medications a day since I was 14 years old. Sometimes I hate the fact that my medicine cabinet looks like the cabinet of a 60 year old. Intrusive thoughts make me think, “what will my medicine cabinet look like when I’m ACTUALLY 60?” Or even worse, “does having this many medications in my 20’s mean I will even make it to 60?”

As strange as it may feel to take multiple medications at age 24, I also know I wouldn’t be alive today if it weren’t for them. Over these 10 years I’ve learned one thing: Modern medicine is a miracle. We should not look down at ourselves, and especially our bodies, for the medication it needs. I know I wouldn’t be myself without my medication…so without it, who would you be?

If a medication helps you feel happier and healthier, if it keeps you going to live another day, then that is all that matters. Again, modern medicine is a miracle…so feel proud of yourself for using it to feel the best that you can be. ❤️

I left my birthday celebration to go to the ER this past weekend.

I didn’t want to go.
I didn’t want to cause a scene.
I just wanted to be ok.

The thing is I wasn’t ok. My chest was tight, my breath was short, and my head was uneasy. Something wasn’t right.

When I got to the hospital my blood pressure read a 197/129. If you know anything about blood pressure, you know that reading is extremely dangerous and not something a 24 year old should be experiencing. But here I was on my 24th birthday, in a hospital bed, seeing that number stare me straight in the face.

My initial thought was, “I should keep this to myself. I don’t want anyone to worry.”

Unsurprisingly, I’ve done this before. I’d pride myself on carrying my own weight, thinking, “I don’t NEED anyone’s help. I CAN take care of myself”...but something I’ve been asking myself lately is this. Just because I can, does that mean I should?

No, and certainly not in this instance.

I ended up texting my parents, my partner, my family, letting them know of my situation in the hospital. From that moment on I felt support in ways that I had rarely accepted before; Reassuring words when I was defeated, actions so I didn’t have to expel energy, and care every step of the way. I’m now doing much better ❤️

This experience along with many other experiences has taught me this:
1. It is my responsibility as a son, grandson, partner, and friend to be honest about where I am at in life.
2. The weight of a burden feels much lighter when I feel that I am not alone.
3. If I accept someone’s support that does not mean I am incapable of supporting myself. I am strong for knowing when to accept it.

The beautiful thing about humans is that we are creatures of love, creatures of connection, and creatures of care. We all thrive when we are able to help and support one another. So instead of trying to tackle life on our own, let’s try and be more open about sharing our struggles and accepting help from those who want to give it. I know it can be easier said than done, but I can promise we will all be much happier and healthier for trying.

Much love and care, Taylor 💛

Everyone has an opinion for a reason. No one was born with it ✨

The Lil Nas X music video controversy hits close to home for me and here’s why. (Based on my own personal experiences)

Growing up I often heard that loving the same s*x would deny my access to heaven, condemning me to hell.

As I explored my faith I felt that I couldn’t be a true Christian if I were q***r in any way. I grew into my teens and began to think that I may be q***r, but I didn’t feel happy or rejoiced in my feelings. I felt guilt, confusion, and shame.

While my friends and family always showed me support for being me, that didn’t shake the thought of being denied to heaven if I explored being q***r. Over time I ended up moving away from my faith towards, what I felt as the only option, being me. That is most unfortunate.

No kid, teen, or human being should feel like they have to choose between following their religion or loving who they love. This is what it can feel like as a questioning q***r person who has been told, “you’ll go to hell for being gay.” This is not how it should to be.

With that being said, I can 100% understand the artistic approach in Lil Nas X’s video. He is a gay man (around my age) who is using his platform to express what is important to him. He is not worshiping the devil. He is not promoting satanism. He is expressing (in his own way) how this rhetoric on gay people has had a very damaging effect for people in our society.

Yes, this video is extra by him sliding down a pole from heaven to hell, ending up with satan, then giving him the lap dance of his life 😂 But what I see is not him promoting “f*ck Christianity.” I see him saying, “if you say I’m going to hell for being gay then I’m going there as my authentic self.”

If you have a difference of opinion on this, that’s ok! I obviously had an unfortunate introduction to Christianity to make me see it this way. But if your opinion is “people shouldn’t love who they want to love”, then there is no place for that here.

Thank you for reading ❤️ I hope no one feels that this is a bath on religion. I will always support religion that comes from a place of love, not hate. As RuPaul says, “If you don’t love yourself, how in the hell are you gonna love somebody else? Can I get an amen?" 💛

A Happy International Dog Day to this cute, sensitive, silly boy who I love so much 💕

26/01/2021

The love you give yourself affects the love that you have for others ❤️

I’m living for self care.
I’m living for doing things that give myself love.
I’m living for creating moments that make me see the beauty in who I am, internally and externally.

My mental health is an ever changing landscape with this pandemic and I deserve to do things that make me feel good about who I am, and yes, you do too ❤️

This has been your friendly PSA to do something that gives yourself love this week! I promise it’ll affect the rest of your life more than you know. 😌

What you should know about me!

My name is Taylor Miller and I'm a 21 year old gluten-free, vegetarian, and dairy free guy who's always been passionate about helping others. People look at me and assume that I'm a normal person but little do they know about the invisible illnesses that lie underneath. Celiac Disease, POTS, and a rare adrenal disorder were just 3 of the major disorders I was sooo lucky (sarcastic font) to be diagnosed with at the age of 13 years old. On top of that I was told by doctors that I’d only have had 3 months to live...all this before even starting high school.

Everything that's been thrown my way at a young age has allowed me to overcome many more things in life. I've spent much of my life in and out of the hospital. I've learned what it's like to try and date with chronic illnesses. I've dealt with people who don't understand that my dietary restrictions are real and not just a fad diet. I'm learning how to live with roommates who are not gluten free. I'm living life as a young male who can't act his own age because of dietary restrictions and chronic illnesses. The bottom line is life is hard. Life's emotional. But life can certainly be more difficult when something keeps you from feeling your best.

My goal is to show everyone that, yes, living with dietary restrictions or invisible illnesses can be hard. However, you don't have to let it control your whole life. I overcame my illnesses to start my own business and this blog at the age of 15 years old. I could have rolled over and let these chronic illnesses get the best of me but I didn't. I have a more positive outlook on life because I know my hardships have made me into who I am. With that being said...I hope to show that it certainly is possible to live a happy life with these restrictions. It may not be easy but sometimes we just need a little support along the way.

I look forward to having you join me as I share all of the things to make life easier while being gluten-free, vegetarian, having chronic illnesses, and everything in between!
