Here’s why motherhood made me question the system

Ever feel like something just isn’t right with what we’re told about health and school? Here’s the real story behind how the system was built—and why trusting your gut as a mama matters more than ever.

It All Started When I Became a Mom…

I used to roll my eyes at the “crunchy” moms. You know the ones—questioning vaccines, making elderberry syrup from scratch, homeschooling their kids with wild hair and bare feet.

But then I became a mom.

And everything changed.

Suddenly I wasn’t okay with “maybes” or “side effects.” I didn’t want a “one-size-fits-all” answer. I wanted truth. Real, backed-by-facts truth—not whatever Dr. Google or mainstream media decided to serve up that day.

So I started digging.And what I found? Let’s just say—I fell down a rabbit hole I’ll never crawl out of. One that opened my eyes to how the systems we trust—especially healthcare and education—weren’t really built to help us thrive.

Let’s Talk About the Rockefellers

Yep, those Rockefellers. The oil tycoons from way back in the day.In the early 1900s, John D. Rockefeller started investing heavily in medicine. But not just any medicine—synthetic, pharmaceutical-based medicine. Natural remedies? Herbal medicine? Homeopathy? He labeled it all “quackery.” Sound familiar?

Then came the Flexner Report—a government-backed plan (funded by Rockefeller money) that totally reshaped medical schools in America. Suddenly, doctors were only being taught how to diagnose symptoms and prescribe drugs. Natural medicine got shoved to the sidelines.

From that moment on, the medical system became a business. Not a healing practice. A business that just happened to make billions selling meds.

Oh, and School? Same Story.

Rockefeller wasn’t just interested in our health—he wanted a say in how we think, too.He poured money into reshaping public education through the General Education Board. The goal? To create obedient workers for the growing industrial machine.His advisor, Frederick Gates, literally said:

“We shall not try to make these people or any of their children into philosophers or men of learning. We don’t want thinkers… we want workers.”

Let that sink in.

Our education system wasn’t built to raise critical thinkers, innovators, or emotionally intelligent leaders. It was built to create compliant employees who didn’t question authority.

Enter Google: The System’s Favorite Wingman

So maybe you’re thinking, “I’ll just Google everything.”

But here’s the thing, mama: Google isn’t neutral.

It ranks what sells, what’s popular, or what’s been boosted with dollars. Natural living blogs and holistic research often get buried beneath pages of system-approved fluff. It’s harder and harder to find the real stuff.

And trust me, I’ve searched.

That’s why I’m here—to help you cut through the noise and find your way back to common sense, backed by real history and real research.

So What Do We Do With This Info?

We ask questions.

We trust our instincts again.

Because YOU, mama, were given the most powerful intuition on the planet. You don’t need a PhD or a white coat to know what’s best for your babies.

You just need confidence—and the courage to go against the grain.

Final Thoughts From One Mama to Another

I used to be a wildlife rehabilitator with a vet tech background. I’ve seen both sides of the system. And I still choose simple, nature-powered remedies and rhythms whenever I can.

Because our kids deserve better than default settings.

So if you’ve ever felt like something’s off with the way things are done—you’re not crazy. You’re waking up to the system.

And the more of us that wake up, the more we build something better.

Right here. Right now. From our homes, our kitchens, and our hearts.
