A new edition of my free gastroparesis guide
For anyone feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to start with gastroparesis management.
Back in 2012, when I was about to give birth to my now 13-year-old daughter, I knew I’d be taking an extended break from coaching and that I wouldn’t be able to respond to the messages I received from people feeling overwhelmed and confused about where to start with managing gastroparesis.
As an alternative, I wrote a 30-page PDF and called it the Quick Start Guide to Gastroparesis Management. It was free, and it was meant to serve as a stand-in for those first few coaching sessions or the emails I’d typically send back: helping people get oriented to the diagnosis, focus on the most high-impact changes, and find some steadiness and relief as quickly as possible.
Since then, the Quick Start Guide has been downloaded more than 20,000 times. It’s fulfilled its purpose, and it’s been lightly updated along the way. But a couple of weeks ago, I read through it with my 2026 eyes and asked myself, “Is this the way I’d structure this today, with an additional decade of experience?”
And the honest answer was no.
Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about simplicity. About how, especially in the early stages, more information isn’t always better. When someone is overwhelmed, anxious, and just looking for some relief, clarity matters more than volume.
So I went back to the drawing board.
I’m happy to share that a brand new edition of the Living Well with Gastroparesis Quick Start Guide is now available. It’s still free. It’s still practical and actionable. But it’s more intentional, more streamlined, and more aligned with how I actually approach gastroparesis management today.
If you’re newly diagnosed—or if you’re restarting your efforts to build a comprehensive, sustainable plan that prioritizes quality of life—this is for you.
You can download your copy here. All that’s required is an email address. You’ll receive the PDF download link, followed by two short follow-up emails with additional guidance and resources. That’s it.
As always, I hope this resource supports you as you continue finding your own path toward living well with gastroparesis.
