The Cure Is Within
How I Beat Autoimmune Disease
G’Day, my name is Mick
When I was hit with the diagnosis of Ulcerative Colitis in 2020, it felt like a bomb had gone off in my life. Here I was, a high-achieving dad with three kids, and suddenly, I couldn’t see a future where I’d feel like myself again. It was absolutely the darkest chapter of my life. The doctors were blunt—telling me healing was off the table and my life would now be about managing endless cycles of medication, pain, and suffering. But there was no way I was going to let that be the end of my story.
Somewhere deep inside, a fierce determination woke up. I knew there had to be another path. Armed with that resolve, I plunged into a sea of research—devouring book after book, article after article, about my condition. I sought out every health professional who was willing to think outside conventional wisdom. And gradually, the pieces started to fall into place.
Now, four years on from that grim diagnosis, I’m not just surviving; I’m thriving. I’ve never felt more alive and vibrant, and I’m completely free of symptoms. This turnaround has transformed my mission in life. I’m now dedicated to spreading hope to others battling autoimmune conditions, showing them that full recovery isn’t just a dream—it can be their reality too, just like it was for me.

In my book, ‘The Cure Is Within, 10 Steps to Beat Autoimmune Disease Forever,’ I share how I went from being utterly debilitated, trapped in a cycle of suffering for what felt like an eternity and enduring 18 bloody (literally) painful bowel movements per day, to experiencing the polar opposite – boundless energy and vitality.
I discovered that by healing my gut, I was able to break free from the relentless grip of this horrendous chronic illness. Through an overhaul of my lifestyle, experimenting with natural remedies, and refusing to surrender, I underwent a life-changing transformation. Now, I’m not just fully healed– I’m absolutely thriving and in the best condition of my life.
In my book I detail the strategies that I used, and the protocols I followed, which ultimately saved my life. Backed by scientific sources and personal anecdotes, I show you how you can reclaim your life and change the course of your destiny.
The power lies within us all. My book will show you the way to find yourself again, and fall back in love with your life.
Frequently Asked Questions
I managed to wean off the medications within just 8 months, and to my relief, I didn’t experience any flare-ups or symptoms after that. By the time a year had rolled around, I really started to feel like my old self again. But the true transformation came by the two-year mark. That’s when I shifted gears from just recovering to fully optimizing my health. Believe it or not, I ended up feeling even better than I did before my diagnosis. It was like I had not only regained my life but had turbocharged it!
I worked with many health professionals on my journey to recovery, but there are three health professionals would confidently recommend:
- A dedicated gastroenterologist: A specialist was crucial in managing the acute phases of my condition with medical treatments that were essential at that time.
- Jabe Brown at Melbourne Functional Medicine. Jabe isn’t just incredibly knowledgeable and intelligent; he’s also a genuinely lovely person. He educated me extensively about healing and taking control of my body and health, which transformed my approach to dealing with my condition.
- The team at Dr. Jason Hawrelak’s clinic at Goulds Natural Medicine in Tasmania. Working with this team provided me with insights into holistic and integrative approaches to health that were tailored to my needs, focusing on gut health and its impact on autoimmune conditions.
Tell them all I said hi ! 😉
Currently, I do not offer personal consultations, but I am hoping to start one day in the future. For now, my focus is on developing and sharing comprehensive resources and making them accessible to anyone that needs support.
I spend my time sharing my knowledge with the world. I am hoping to positively impact as many people as I can. I am in the process of creating an online course that will feature video tutorials. These tutorials will walk through my healing protocols step-by-step, making the information easily accessible to everyone interested.
All the details of my approach, including the step-by-step protocols, are available in my book. This resource is designed to provide you with all the information you need to understand and apply the strategies that helped me make a full recovery from Ulcerative Colitis.
