About
Built Different began as a personal journey to find two things that seemed impossible to get in one place: clean, effective supplements I could trust and a community that felt like home.
​
For years, I believed that eating well and exercising was enough. But as my health needs grew, I realized I needed more than just good habits. The moment I started, the search for supplements quickly became overwhelming—there were endless options but barely any transparency. I wanted to know exactly what I was putting into my body, to be sure it was safe, effective, and aligned with my values.
​
And then, there was the search for a real community. As someone who thrives on connection and growth, I longed for a space where people were really committed to their goals and to supporting each other. But I kept finding groups that felt disconnected, without the kind of real human connection that drives accountability and growth.
​
After a lot of trial and error, two things finally happened...
The first was that I found Nutrilite—a supplement brand that gives me peace of mind with its dedication to organic farming, whole-plant concentrates, and complete traceability from seed to supplement. It's become a foundational part of my wellness.
​
The second was founding Built Different—a community I created to be exactly the supportive space I’d been looking for. A place where people genuinely show up for one another, where we connect, share insights, celebrate victories, and navigate challenges together. Built Different is about fostering growth, staying accountable, and making wellness a journey we go on together.
​
Built Different is home for those who just want more. More out of life and who they are. ​So, whether you’re here for physical health, mental wellness, or simply to find a community that understands your journey, know that you belong here.
​
Welcome to Built Different—a space built on trust, growth, and the power of doing it together. I'm excited to share this space with you.

Feeling lost in the sea of information? And not sure which supplements or brands are right for you? You’re not alone. I found it equally as tiresome and overwhelming.
​So this is why I started on this journey. And now I'm here to help you cut through the noise and make informed decisions about what’s best for your body.
​You deserve supplements that don’t just promise results but are actually transparent and are safe. Here are some key things I always consider when choosing a brand.
​
​
Certified Organic Farms
Growth
traceability
A certification ensures that the plants grown on the farms meet organic standards, so that we can have high-quality, chemical-free products.
​
Choose a brand that uses great soil and water to make sure that the plants are healthy and strong. That means no toxic pesticides or fertilizers. Instead, that they use natural bugs, birds or natural weed control to protect the plants.
A traceability program allows us to see the journey of products from farm to table. It ensures that every supplement we take is safe and effective, from seed to supplement. The brand I prefer gives every seed gets a birth certificate that we can track their journey.
Science
Look for a brand that has scientists working to identify right down to choosing the botanicals or the plant species. A brand that invests in this careful selection process means that the supplements are both effective and reliable.
Manufacturing
Make sure that they do quality checks on their ingredients and products. Meaning how many times is each product tested during manufacturing and are there records for it being tested to make sure the raw materials are genuine and meet the nutrient potency standards.
Packaging
I used to overlook this, but I've come to realize how important it is since the product passes through many hands and locations before reaching us. Now, I check if the brand tests the packaging to ensure it doesn’t harm the product and that what’s inside remains top quality.
I know I've found high quality supplements when I can go behind the label.
