About Me
My Story
I never planned to become a health and longevity coach. My journey started in the aisle of a small public library in 1989, when a beginner’s guide to homeopathy practically jumped off the shelf. I opened it—and instantly felt something click.
That moment changed everything.
I dove in, learned nonstop, and started seeing small miracles in my own home. The biggest was with my daughter, Morgan. At four, she developed a severe ear infection while we were traveling. I had antibiotics with me, but something told me to try the homeopathic remedy first. After one long night, she woke up fever-free—and never had another ear infection again.
It opened my eyes to something profound: the body wants to heal when we support it, not fight it.
But for years, I didn’t always take care of myself that way.
As a single mom running a high-pressure entertainment PR firm in New York City, I pushed myself hard. I battled gut issues, ulcers, anxiety, burnout, and a deep feeling that I wasn’t living as my true self. I loved parts of that career, but it wasn’t aligned with who I was becoming.
In my mid-fifties, I finally stepped off the treadmill. I closed my firm, adopted a puppy, and tried to “retire”—but I wasn’t done growing. I went to design school, launched a luxury dog fashion brand, became a podcaster, and reached over half a million listeners.
And through every reinvention, one passion kept resurfacing: helping people and animals heal naturally.
So I went back to school—this time for health coaching, nutrition, and advanced homeopathy. I built Teiche Wellness, and eventually created the foundation of my book and my method.
With age, I grew into the woman I had been searching for during all those years of burnout—clear, grounded, vibrant, and aligned.
Today, at 70, I feel younger and more alive—inside and out—than I did in my 40s.
And it’s not magic.
It’s biology.
It’s mindset.
It’s the gut–mind–immune connection that shapes how we feel, think, age, and show up in the world.
My Think and Grow Young™ Method was born from my own healing—proof that you can feel like yourself again, no matter your age or starting point.
It’s your time to rewrite your story, reclaim your vitality, and live boldly. Feel younger.
Think brighter.
Grow stronger.
