Planet Thrive logoPlanetThrive.com is a grassroots community for personal wellness, with a focus on the health-environment connection. We offer a healing space for those on a personal health journey and those wishing to live a healthier, more conscious life.

Although our members may arrive for different reasons – some based on lessons learned from their own personal experience with illness and others due to their passion for environmental issues and natural living – they are essentially on the same path: uncovering hidden truths about the systems we were raised to believe in, making connections between big business, the government, the environment and our health, and taking their health care and lives back into their own hands.

With more and more chemicals being poured into the world everyday, more people will be getting environmentally based health problems (in fact, we believe that most health problems today can be traced to toxins in our environment!). People are going to be looking for answers and our medical system is not set up to answer them.

Planet Thrive is a place where environmentally aware and health conscious people can share resources and personal experience to help each other heal mind•spirit•body as we heal the earth.

  • Julie Genser, founder of Planet Thrive

    Earthwalker is the username that PT founder Julie Genser created for her online interactions so many years ago when first creating Planet Thrive.

    Julie's (Earthwalker's) life was derailed over twenty years ago when she had a very large organic mercury exposure after she naively used a mouth thermometer to measure the temperature of just-boiled milk while making her very first pizza at home. The mercury instantly expanded into a gas form and exploded out the back of the thermometer right into her face. Unaware that mercury was the third most neurotoxic element on Earth, Julie had no idea she had just received a very high dose of a poisonous substance.

    A series of subsequent toxic exposures over the next few years -- to smoke from two fires (including 9/11), toxic mold, lyme disease, and chemical injuries -- caused catastrophic damage to her health. While figuring out how to survive day-to-day, and often minute-to-minute, she created Planet Thrive to help others avoid some of the misdiagnoses and struggles she had experienced.

    She has clawed her way over many health mountains to get to where she is today. She is excited to bring the latest iteration of Planet Thrive to the chronic illness community.

    In 2019, Julie published her very first cookbook e-book called Low Lectin Lunches (+ Dinners, Too!) after discovering how a low lectin, gluten free diet was helping manage her chronic fascia/muscle pain.

The illusion of control

by Diana Rose Kottle | It is an illusion to think we have control over the outcome of anything and yet we are more powerful as creators of our own reality than we could even imagine. This is the paradox.
