Coaching. Adam x Lupus.
Not a nutritionist. Not a functional medicine doc. Not a wellness coach with a laptop and a dream.
A method. A phase. A one lever. Built on two decades of living inside a body that turned on itself. Built on the Codex. Built on 21 Principles. Built on the question that starts every session:
"What did your body tell you that surprised you?"
And the one that ends it:
"You've done enough."
WHO THIS COACHING IS FOR
Adam. Lived with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) since 2006. Vasculitis. Extreme UV sensitivity. Seizures. Twenty years of experimenting with nutrition, movement, sleep, hormone balance, nervous system regulation, and recovery protocols until the body stopped screaming and started cooperating.
Author of The Lupus Vampire's Ingestion Codex (778 pages, 13 chapters, 56+ citations), The Dharma of Chronic Illness, and the 21 Principles of the Lupus Vampire. Award-winning industrial designer. Former educator. Systems thinker who applied systems thinking to his own flare cycle and found a method.
Not a doctor. Not a naturopath. Not selling a cure. Selling a way of navigating..
What the Coaching Is
A four-week protocol built on your body, your labs, your terrain. Not a template. Not a supplement stack emailed to you. A conversation that becomes a protocol, and a protocol that becomes a Tuesday.
Week 1 — The Intake + The Lever. We identify the one variable affecting your system most. Sleep. The 2 PM crash. The gut. The hands. The grief. The family. The "I'm doing too much" loop. One lever. Not ten. We build the first two anchors. You start the tracker. You name your phase (Phase 1: Load Reduction, Phase 2: Regulation, Phase 3: Remission Holding, or Phase 4: Flare Reset). That's the frame. Everything else fits inside it.
Week 2 — The Protocol Lands. Supplements timed to your existing routine, not a new one. Food built on what you already eat, with one or two additions. The mobility ladder meets you where you are — chair, counter, two steps. The 30-second boundary for the triggers that spike your pain. The evening wind-down. The sleep window. You're not adding 20 things. You're adding two to four, in the right order, at the right time.
Week 3–4 — The Follow-Up + The Adjustment. This is the session that matters. Four weeks in. You open the tracker. You show me the week sleep was best and the week pain was worst. What was different. What you dropped. What surprised you. We adjust one variable. Not five. One. And we set the next two weeks.
Ongoing (if you want it). Monthly check-ins. Phase transitions. The Council protocols. The regenerative frontier when you're ready. The "what's the one thing your body is still asking for" conversation. As long as you need it.
—Adam x Lupus
What This Is Not
Not medical treatment. I do not diagnose. I do not prescribe. I do not tell you to stop your Plaquenil, your gabapentin, your sertraline, your prednisone. I work alongside your rheumatologist, your PCP, your psychiatrist. I work in the space they don't cover: the protocol, the routine, the Tuesday, the 4:45 AM wake, the 11:45 AM salt water, the 1:45 PM legs-up, the 8 PM digital sunset, the 30-second boundary, the "set the shelf" moment.
Not a diet plan. You are not doing keto. You are not eliminating 14 food groups. You are not "clean eating." You are building meals from a LOW/MED/HIGH index, testing one variable at a time, and trusting your data over the internet.
Not a supplement stack. You will not take 22 capsules a day. You will take 2 to 8, timed gently, added in the right order, stopped when they stop working. Less is the protocol.
Not a 12-step program. There is no "Step 7." There is Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, Phase 4. There is the one lever. There is the next correct step.
Not positive vibes. "You're so brave" is not a coaching strategy. "Here's your phase, here's your anchor, here's the one thing we change this week, and here's what we look at in four weeks" is.
Not for everyone. If you want to be told what to eat and go home, this is not it. If you want a conversation that starts with your body and ends with a protocol you can actually run, this is it.
“Thank you so much! I’ve learned more from Adam in the past few weeks than I have at my doc’s office every 3 months for 25 years”

The 22-minute consult
Before anything else, we start here with a focused intake session designed to understand where you are and what direction you need. This is not a full coaching session.
It’s where we identify the primary variable affecting your system and establish the next step forward.
You come prepared. We move directly.
Important : This session requires a completed intake form.
If you’re not ready to take action, this is not the right place to start
-
Your diagnosis, your meds, your current flare state
Your sleep (hours, fragments, RLS, the 2 AM / 5 AM pattern)
Your pain (where, when, what makes it louder, what makes it quieter)
Your terrain (what you eat, what you move, what you're not doing)
Your phase (where are you in the Codex, even if you don't know the name yet)
The one variable that's affecting you most right now
-
Your phase, named
Your one lever, identified
The first two anchors for the next 7 days
A clear next step: "Here's what you do before our next conversation, and here's what to bring"
A copy of the 21 Principles (if you haven't read them yet)
A link to the Coven (if you want the community)
-
A full protocol build (that's the 4-week coaching)
A medical consultation (that's your rheumatologist)
An open-ended "how's it going" chat
A commitment to anything beyond the next 22 minutes
This is where the work begins.
The Intake Consult is a focused 22-minute session used to understand your current state and determine the next direction.
We are not reviewing everything.
We are identifying the primary variable affecting your system and making one clear adjustment.
You come prepared.
We move directly.
What We Focus On
• current stability
• recent changes or triggers
• daily inputs (food, light, stress, environment)
• where breakdown is happening
What You Leave With
• one clear direction
• one immediate adjustment
• one priority to focus on
What This Is Not
• full protocol development
• ongoing coaching
• medical advice
• open-ended discussion

Coven Paths
Group Coaching :
The Coven Circle is a group coaching environment for individuals living with lupus who want structure, accountability, and community support while building healthier daily systems. * Requires “The Lupus Vampire Ingestion Codex”
Living with autoimmune disease often requires learning how to regulate energy, reduce inflammatory triggers, and create stable habits that support the nervous system. The Coven Circle focuses on implementing those foundations in a practical, supportive setting.

Topics discussed within the circle may include:
• inflammation awareness
• energy pacing and fatigue management
• nervous system regulation
• sleep stabilization
• movement for autoimmune bodies
• habit building and daily structure

WHO THIS COACHING IS NOT FOR!
“This coaching is not for everyone.
It may not be a good fit if you are looking for:
• a medical diagnosis
• a replacement for your doctor
• guaranteed cures
• miracle supplements
• passive solutions where someone else fixes your life
Living with lupus requires patience, experimentation, and personal responsibility.
This coaching supports that process, but you must be willing to participate in the work.”
— Adam
A Note on Medical Care
This coaching is designed to work alongside your healthcare team, not replace it.
Rheumatologists, endocrinologists, and other medical professionals play an essential role in managing autoimmune disease.
The goal of this coaching is to help you improve the daily lifestyle factors that medicine alone often cannot solve, including:
• energy management
• sleep stabilization
• stress regulation
• movement and recovery
• inflammation-supportive habits
Always consult your physician before implementing any major lifestyle or supplement changes.
This coaching is not medical treatment, diagnosis, or a substitute for your doctors, your rheumatologist, your primary care physician, your psychiatrist, or any licensed healthcare provider. The protocols are built on personal experience, the Codex, and lifestyle guidance. Share them with your care team. Discuss every supplement with your providers. Do not stop or change prescribed medications without direct supervision.
If a red flag hits — fever over 100.4, chest pain, sudden joint swelling with heat, blood in urine, the 3 AM "something changed" pain — you stop the protocol and you call your doctor. The Codex is here when you return.
Important Disclaimer
-
It does not replace medical care and does not involve diagnosing conditions, prescribing medications, or altering medical treatment plans.
-
All protocols and lifestyle strategies should be discussed with your physician or healthcare team before implementation.
