I’m Gail Macrae — RN, BSN, Nurse Practioner-educated, and the founder of ReKnow Wellness.

I was born to heal — myself, my family, and others. Raised in a small Sonoma County community north of the Bay Area, As a child, I watched my father struggled through the broken medical system with a chronic back injury that ruined his life and ability to support our family. That early experience lit a fire in me. I graduated high school early and earned my BSN from Cal State East Bay in 2011.

At 21, while working through nursing school, I was in a car accident that herniated my L5-S1 disc. Doctors recommended steroids and surgery. I declined, innately knowing that there was another way, I fully rehabilitated my body through natural means. At 23, I developed severe IBS from the Gardasil vaccine and the stress of nursing school. Again, despite doctors insisting on medications, utilizing my education and knowledge, I found a way to healed my body.

For over ten years I worked in acute care, witnessing the same heartbreaking pattern: patients trapped in cycles of chronic nutritional deficiencies, hidden toxicity, and pharmaceutical symptom suppression. The deeper I went, the more I saw that the real barrier wasn’t the diseases themselves, but the pervasive victim mindset — the belief that something is wrong with our bodies and we need an outside expert to fix us.

At 34, I faced my own deepest test: a potentially cancerous thyroid nodule, severe osteopenia, skin cancer, and a histamine autoimmune condition leaving me disfigured. Once more, I turned away from pharma as the default answer and put in the dedicated work to love myself, deeply understand what the root causes were and rehabilitate my body.

These experiences deepened my truth: nothing is wrong with your body. It was created perfectly, and we are surrounded by food deficient in nutrition, water and air poisoned by chemicals, and a society riddled with mindsets of deficiency, stress, work and failure of self care. Today I combine my nursing foundation with certifications in homeopathy, holistic medicine, advanced biofield tuning, and leadership coaching to offer REAL solutions, for anyone willing to put in the work.

At ReKnow Wellness I don’t “treat” or “fix.” I walk hand-in-hand with you, asking the right questions and coxing you out of the mindset that are keeping you sick. Together we shift from fearful victim into the natural state of aligned abundance — radiant health, energy, joy, and possibility.
