Welcome 🖤

Welcome, friends!

Thanks so much for joining me on this journey. I’m Jessica Jess (yes, that’s right!) and I’ve been living with food allergies for as long as I can remember. It all started when I was just a few months old and diagnosed with peanut and tree nut allergies. A few years later, sesame joined the list. By 16, I was also managing lactose intolerance. Now at 30, I feel like I’ve lived a full life navigating allergies—and that’s exactly what brings me here.

This blog is a space for support, connection, and community - of all ages. Are you newly diagnosed and unsure where to start? Have you been living with allergies for years but want fresh tips and relatable stories? Or maybe you just want a place where people get it—the emotional ups and downs, the daily decisions, the “read every label” life? You’re in the right place.

Some things you can look forward to are:

• Allergy-friendly travel tips

• Beauty and self-care guides for sensitive skin

• Real-life stories and lessons

• Product reviews and safe recommendations

• Downloadable resources to make allergy life easier

Quick reminder, I am not a medical professional! I’d love to hear your story too—feel free to shoot me an email, share your own tips, or give me new ideas to talk about. You can also find me over on Instagram @eatsafelivebig where I share more day-to-day life with allergies.

Here we go!

XXOO,
JJ
