About Kale Blossom

Helping you navigate a broken healthcare system.

Our health care system is necessary but it needs a major overhauling. We’ve heard from countless women over our combined thirty years in practice, and have even experienced this ourselves–that dedicated time, proper support and comprehensive care are not being provided.

Here at Kale Blossom, we offer sound information to help support your family’s holistic health + wellness journey. You’ll learn about possible symptoms & what they’re connected to, as well as the necessary steps to getting the care you need + deserve. Our main goal is to empower you to always advocate for you & your family’s health.

Real wellness for women + Moms

First & most importantly, we’re both Moms! Carly has two children, Rachel has six. Motherhood has taught us so much about life, health and matters of the heart. We hope this is evident in how we share and show up here in this space.Our goal is to be authentic and real, imperfect and honest. We’re here for it all!

How did we get here? (Our Story)

We first met in grad school. Carly was the shy Northerner and Rachel the friendly Southerner.

We spent the next 4 years with our heads buried in books, drinking lots of coffee, taking shopping breaks and endless exams, and often staying up way too late. The journey was both difficult and rewarding, and we enjoyed every step of it (for the most part, our adrenals disagreed!).

We graduated together – Rachel with a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine and Carly a Doctorate in Chiropractic. Upon graduation, we each had our own plan as Rachel moved back to her southern roots in Georgia and Carly stayed to practice in Chicagoland. After a year, Carly was convinced to move to a warmer climate and landed in Atlanta near Rachel. We both married, had kids, and were involved in our own professional clinical practices.

Together for over a decade, we have celebrated victories (yay!) and supported each other through the hardships of motherhood + life. ‘Cause let’s face it – being a chick and a Mom while keeping it all together can be tough stuff!

Hi, I’m Rachel!

Well, hi there! I’m Dr. Rachel Marynowski, a licensed Naturopathic Physician & I’ve been in healthcare for over 20 years. After finishing my undergraduate degree in Public Health & working for a large hospital system, I completed my Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine. In addition to my own functional medicine practice, I co-founded an integrative clinic with a birthing center, have written a children’s book & facilitate women’s therapy groups. Supporting both women & children by getting to root-cause health issues, while also empowering & educating, has been one of the greatest privileges of my life.

I’m also a Mom to SIX kiddos! Including a set of surprise twins in my 40’s. My husband & I had always dreamed of having a big family & living on land with animals… & here we are! I love farmer’s markets, a quaint coffee shop, small town bookstores, & hanging out barefoot in my backyard with my chickens & kiddos.

I truly believe in the healing power of nature & the innate wisdom of the human body. I love helping women & their families live healthier, happier lives and you can, too. Carly & I are here to show you how!

Hi, I’m Carly!

Welcome! I’m Dr Carly Egoavil, a licensed Chiropractor & Functional Medicine leader with over 15 years of clinical experience. I have completed my studies in Biological Sciences, with an emphasis on human anatomy & physiology, earned my Doctorate in Chiropractic, and continue to study Functional Medicine, with particular interest in women’s and children’s health. As a provider, it is simply not enough to recognize illness, but to rather uncover and support the root cause – how true healing occurs.

My most important job is ‘Mother’, to two amazing children, an 11-year old daughter and 9-year old son, a loving Cocker Spaniel, Lucy, and wife to a hardworking foodie. I’m a mid-westerner at heart, with an appreciation for the beautiful South in which I call home. I enjoy a good magazine and a cup of coffee, watching my kids play sports, am re-energized by the sun, and continue to work on perfecting my gardening skills – work in progress!

True healing rarely happens in the doctor’s office, but rather in the choices we make daily – we all have the ability and power to heal from within. You can, too, and Rachel and I are here to show you how.

Healthcare can be better… & it starts in your home, taking care of you, every single day! Here are more of our favorite health tips. 🩷😊

Some workout clothes (especially leggings and yoga pants😭) can contain PFAS, phthalates, bisphenols and other chemicals. Your skin doesn’t magically become a barrier just because you’re working out. 👀 Add heat, sweat + hours of skin contact, and researchers are asking important questions about dermal exposure and potential hormone-disrupting effects. 😭🤯

And considering leggings sit on a woman’s body all day… this is one swap we think is worth making. 👍

Our newest favorite is buttery soft, actually stays up, doesn’t get the saggy bottom after wearing (IYKYK 😂) and costs 40%+ less than popular brands like Lululemon.

Comment FIT and we’ll send you the link. 💗

Also including a free trial or our low-tox scanner app we invented! Yes, yours truly, us two. It’s called nook. And it’s not food, there are tons of those apps already. It’s all things under your roof, think cleaning products, bedding, rugs, towels, baby gear, clothing, body care products. It includes over 1000 products & coupon codes for many of our favorite low tox swaps. We’d love if you have it a try! 🩷

Every October, companies cover shelves in pink while many of those products contain ingredients linked to endocrine disruption, reproductive concerns, inflammation, toxicity and other health risks. We’re talking BILLIONS of dollars!

Yet breast cancer rates continue to rise, and a cure remains out of reach. So where is all that money going? 🤯🤯🤯

A pink ribbon doesn’t make a product healthy. Women deserve more than pink packaging. They deserve transparency, safer products, meaningful prevention, and accountability.🩷🙏🎀

If a company truly wants to support women’s health, it should start with what’s inside the product—not what’s printed on the label.

Pink doesn’t mean safe—check what’s inside. 🎀💔

Silver is defintely! not the new kid on the wellness block.😎🩶

It’s been used medicinally for thousands of years, with reports of its use dating back to ancient Egypt around 1850 BCE.

Long before modern antibiotics, various forms of silver were used for wound care and infection control, including in silver lined pots to store water to keep it cleaner.

Today, conventional medicine still uses silver in burn creams, antimicrobial wound dressings, medical devices and silver nitrate for cauterization because of its well-established antimicrobial activity.

And in our own homes, we keep a high-quality nano silver + mister (the sprayer seen in this video for under $15!) on hand, especially during cold + sniffle season. We chose this particular one because it’s conservatively dosed, affordable and easy to use, and the extremely small particle size is designed with elimination rather than tissue accumulation in mind. (Aka not gonna get to a toxic level like the FDA & conventional med likes to scare people into thinking! 🤯🫣)

We personally use this in our family & suggest to our patients, from babies and toddlers to bigger kids and adults.🩷

And holiday travel coming up? This is one of those things we like having tucked in the bag. ✈️🩷

Comment “GET WELL SOON” and we’ll send you the link to our favorite nano silver + mister. 🤍

Let’s take back October from the predatory, chemical-y non-profs & large corporations slapping a pink ribbon on things & pretending like they care. The only thing they care about is $$$$$$$$$$.
