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.

Did you know this? 🥸
Over 50% of people carry a common MTHFR gene variant.
This doesn’t mean something is “wrong.”
It doesn’t mean disease. And it doesn’t mean everyone needs testing or supplements.
It simply means some bodies process certain nutrients & toxins differently — especially folic acid & folate (the 2 are NOT the same). 👍✅
That’s why some people feel better focusing on:
• real, whole-food folate
• avoiding unnecessary synthetic additives
• avoiding toxins when & wherever they can
• gentle detox support (sleep, hydration, protein, minerals, movement)
• personalized nutrition instead of one-size-fits-all advice
Knowledge = options 🤍 And the more you know, the more you can work to optimize your health.

Going low-tox doesn’t have to be painful, feel overwhelming or even cost way more. Just takes a little shopping around, reading labels & trying something new. You’ve got this, girl!!! 😀🩷💪
Comment something you’re still looking for by way of a low-tox swap for a product you love & haven’t found a cleaner version. If we can’t help, we bet someone in the KB tribe can!

Low-tox gifting can be FUNNNNN! And one of our favorite things to do is group some of these into gift baskets (think wooden spoons, organic coffee & the HydroFlask mug) or gift sets (like the cheek stick, gua sha & undies or the butcher paper + crayons or the candle warming lamp + clean burning candle).
And you don’t have to break the bank! 💚💚💚

San Francisco just took Big Food to court… a reminder that hidden additives, misleading labels, and corporate profits do have real health consequences for our families.
And it sounds a lot like the tobacco industry doesn’t it? Make a product that’s knowingly addictive so you have forever customers. 🤯🤮😡

Once upon a time herbal medicine, homeopathy, sunshine, rest & home grown food were the 1st go-to’s for “medicine”. It wasn’t alternative, it was the preferred. Let’s get back to that. 🩷🙏

Can we please talk about this? This happens every. durn. year.
All that many of us want is transparency. And maybe to reconsider this whole yearly flu shot thing… did you see the news about Bill Gates new $1.9 billion dollar investment for polio. It should make us all have questions… 🥸
That’s all, carry on. 😎🩷
