Empowering you to manage your EDS symptoms
SO YOU CAN HAVE LESS CHRONIC PAIN AND MORE GOOD DAYS
You’ve lived with EDS symptoms long enough. It’s time to take control of your health with the Prince–Cole Protocol, a wellness roadmap developed by a team experienced with Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome. Join our online community and get all the tools, knowledge, and support you need to thrive.
Have you struggled to find the right diagnosis or treatment for your EDS symptoms?
You know the unpleasant problems we’re talking about…
Joint pain, instability, or hypermobility
Chronic pain or fatigue
Stretchy or fragile skin
Abdominal cramping, bloating, or GI issues
Anxiety or depression
These (plus dozens of other symptoms) are all telltale signs of EDS and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders. If you’ve been living with them for years, please hear us:
You’re not imagining things, you’re not alone, and you’re not destined to live this way forever.

We believe you. We understand you. We’re here for you.
One of us has EDS. The other treats it.
Lauren lived most of her life as a medical mystery. She dealt with odd, painful EDS symptoms for three full decades before finally learning what was causing them. It wasn’t until she found Jason, a physical therapist specializing in EDS, that she finally found hope.
The two of us are deeply passionate about the EDS community. And we have the perfect skill set to help. Pairing Lauren’s personal experience and nutritional coaching background with Jason’s professional experience and tailored interventions, Connective Wellness was born.
Together, we’ve created an innovative EDS management program that can truly change your life

FROM THE EMAIL LAUREN SENT JASON AFTER THEIR FIRST SESSION:
“I've spent the last two hours texting and FaceTiming my small inner circle who have been through all of my health challenges for the long haul, singing your praises and celebrating with them that I have found someone (you!) who has finally given me hope that I might be able to both improve my chronic pain and stave off the rigidity that I know is down the road for me with EDS. We're all seriously having little dance parties because this seemed so out of reach just a week ago and for the last 32 years…. I feel really, REALLY lucky to have found you along this journey toward relief.”

Discover the 6 Pillars of Wellness for Women+ with EDS
Are you familiar with the six pillars of lifestyle medicine? If not, you’re missing an important piece of the EDS puzzle! Grab our free guide to learn all about each pillar, along with actionable ways to adjust your habits for better, brighter days.
Why use lifestyle medicine to manage EDS, anyway?
Because you’re a complex woman who deserves complex care.
Traditional health systems often focus on a single need — and thus a single solution. Got stomach issues? See a GI specialist. Trouble sleeping? Just pop a pill. While these prescriptions can be helpful, rarely do providers offer a multidisciplinary approach to what is likely a complicated health concern.
You deserve better. You deserve care that addresses the many different drivers of your health. Care that starts with nonmedical interventions first. Care that is centered around you as a whole person with many physical, mental, and emotional layers.
Connective Wellness exists to give women+ with EDS access to a new lifestyle medicine protocol that helps you manage your symptoms in an affordable, sustainable way.
Take your health into your own hands
With the help of groundbreaking EDS tools, the guidance of EDS professionals, and the encouragement of other EDS warriors
Imagine waking up every day with a plan — a real, tangible plan to manage your EDS symptoms for good. You’re experiencing less pain, less fatigue, and less anxiety about your condition. You’re surrounded by an online community of people who truly understand you. You’re finally accepted, enlightened, and empowered to thrive.
That’s what’s possible with Connective Wellness. Inside our exclusive EDS Lifestyle Essentials Membership, you’ll be equipped with all the information, action steps, and personal support to enjoy every day.
Disclaimer: Connective Wellness does not guarantee a diagnosis or cure for Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome, establish a patient/provider relationship, or claim to offer medical advice of any kind.

“Cannot recommend Connective Wellness enough!”
“I have never had such effective treatments for my EDS, nor have I ever felt so understood with all of the complex issues my body goes through on a daily basis."
–Kristin Dall Bzenic
Why gut health is foundational for women with EDS, POTS, MCAS + OTHER CHRONIC CONDITIONS
Because if you want to feel better, nutrition is where you need to start
Proper nutrition is the first pillar of lifestyle medicine for a reason: because all other pillars are dependent on it.
(Not familiar with the six pillars of lifestyle medicine? Grab our free ebook to learn more!)
If you’re experiencing EDS stomach issues, addressing your gut health is the only way to begin to feel better. Elimination diets are critical for women with chronic conditions because they help you identify (and avoid) food triggers that may worsen your inflammation, immune response, and overall wellbeing.
By eliminating and slowly reintroducing these trigger foods, you will lower your histamine load, reduce your unpleasant symptoms, and support your overall physical and mental wellbeing for the long haul.

Item description
-
This program is specifically designed for individuals with conditions like Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), and related chronic health challenges. It focuses on addressing gut health, inflammation, food sensitivities, and other symptoms commonly associated with these conditions. Our approach is tailored to help you identify and manage triggers, improve digestion, and support overall wellness.
-
Yes, absolutely! While this program is designed with the unique challenges of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and related conditions in mind, the focus on improving gut health, managing inflammation, and identifying food sensitivities can benefit anyone. Whether you’re dealing with chronic symptoms, unexplained digestive issues, or simply looking to optimize your health, the strategies and tools we provide are adaptable to a wide range of individuals. If you’re unsure whether the program is right for you, call us at 603-864-0092 to discuss your specific goals and needs.

The program is highly customizable and can accommodate a variety of dietary restrictions, allergies, and sensitivities: that’s what we’re trying to resolve! The elimination phase is already gluten-free, dairy-free, FODMAP-free and low in histamines and inflammatory foods.

Yes, international participants are welcome! While the live group coaching calls are scheduled in Eastern Time (ET), recordings will be available if the time zone isn’t convenient. Additionally, we strive to provide recommendations and resources that are accessible wherever you are in the world.
-
Results vary from person to person, but many participants experience significant improvements in digestive health, reduced inflammation, better energy levels, and an increased understanding of how to manage their symptoms. While this program is not a quick fix, it provides the tools and support for meaningful, sustainable change.
-
Absolutely! All live coaching calls are recorded and made available to participants. You can catch up on sessions at your convenience and still benefit from the valuable insights shared during each call. Plus, you’ll have ongoing support through the private Facebook group, and each week we’ll give you the opportunity to write in any questions you have for our lifestyle health coaches so they can answer them live for you to watch later.
-
Nope! While the Total Gut Reset program is geared toward women (since most people with EDS and related stomach issues are women), men are welcome to join as well. We’d be happy to tailor your plan to your needs, regardless of your gender.
-
The Total Gut Reset is structured to provide a balance of flexibility and live support.
Your enrollment begins with a 1:1 onboarding coaching call where we discuss your unique challenges, set personalized S.M.A.R.T. goals, and create a clear roadmap for your success throughout the program. This ensures that your journey is tailored to your individual needs and priorities.
Each week, we release a new video module and related printable resources every Thursday. These resources are designed to guide you through the program at your own pace.
In addition, we hold live group coaching calls on Tuesdays at 11 AM ET, which run for one hour. These calls provide an opportunity to ask questions, gain clarity, and connect with other participants.
The program also includes two culinary coaching calls after Modules 2 and 5. During these sessions, we dive deeper into practical kitchen skills and strategies, focusing on how to prepare and enjoy nutrient-dense, low-histamine, anti-inflammatory meals that align with your healing journey. Whether your a novice or experienced in the kitchen, these coaching calls are designed to help you feel confident and empowered to support your hut health through food.
The program concludes with a 1:1 offboarding call, during which we reflect on your progress, address any remaining questions, and strategize a sustainable plan for maintaining and continuing to improve your gut health beyond the program. You’ll leave with actionable next steps, customized recommendations, and the confidence to navigate your health journey independently.
Throughout the program, you’ll also have access to our private Facebook group, a supportive community where you can connect with other participants, share experiences, and ask questions. The best part? You’ll enjoy 6 months of membership free after The Total Gut Reset, ensuring support and camaraderie even after the program ends. -
Throughout our 8-week program, you will eliminate and slowly reintroduce potential trigger foods, helping you lower your histamine load and gain control over symptoms like chronic pain, fatigue, digestive issues, and more. By the final week, you will have everything you need to sustain your gut health long-term. If you still want support, you’ll have FREE lifetime access to our Facebook community, where you can ask questions and get advice. You can also continue working with our coaches through ongoing 1:1 nutrition services at a discounted rate, or join any of Connective Wellness’s other online programs and in-person services.
-
In addition to weekly coaching calls, you’ll have access to our private Facebook group, where you can ask questions, share experiences, and connect with others on the same journey. If you opt for the Nutritionist in Your Pocket add-on, you’ll also have 24/7 access to your nutritionist via the Voxer app for personalized guidance throughout the program. This add-on is a total game-changer if you’re serious about resetting your gut and finding long-term relief.
-
We want you to feel confident in your investment. If, after completing the first module and attending the first live group coaching call, you feel the program isn’t a good fit, you may request a refund within 24 hours of the first call, before the second module is released. No refunds will be issued after this period.
-
The elimination diet is a short-term, structured approach to identifying food sensitivities and triggers. During the first phase, you’ll temporarily remove specific foods that may contribute to symptoms. In our first-of-its-kind elimination phase, we help you to eliminate foods high in FODMAPs, histamines, and inflammatory properties. In the reintroduction phase, these foods are added back one at a time to observe your body’s responses. This process helps uncover which foods work best for your unique needs and provides valuable insights for long-term dietary choices.
-
No, you won’t lose access! All video modules and printable resources remain available to you with lifetime access, so you can revisit them anytime. This ensures you have ongoing access to the knowledge and tools needed to maintain your progress.
Additionally, we extend your private Facebook group access for a full 6 months after you complete the program. You’ll have the option to remain an active participant after the 6 months at a heavily-discounted alumni rate. -
While the program isn’t typically covered by insurance, many participants have successfully used Health Savings Accounts (HSA) or Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) to pay for it. We recommend checking with your carrier to confirm eligibility and requirements.
-
Yes! Over 80% of previous participants choose to continue with individualized coaching after the program. We offer 1:1 coaching packages in 3- and 6-month intervals and additional programs tailored to your needs to support your continued progress and long-term goals. You can discuss if this option is right for you on your off-boarding call with your coach.
