Stop starting over every 2 weeks.
Build measurable stability with a structured 21-day implementation plan.
GUIDED START is the activation phase of the Autoimmune Heroes System -
with one assessment, one strategy call, one personalized plan, and one follow-up review.
What is it?
Guided Start is a 21-day structured implementation phase.
You receive:
A detailed initial assessment
A 1:1 strategy call
Your personalized 21-day plan
A structured follow-up review after 3 weeks
That’s it. Clear. Contained. Focused.
Why you might need it?
You’ve already invested in understanding your body.
You’ve read, researched, maybe even tried different approaches.
But information without direction still feels overwhelming.
What should you focus on first?
What should you ignore for now?
What might trigger a setback?
How do you avoid changing too many things at once?
Most people don’t struggle because they lack knowledge.
They struggle because no one helps them structure the beginning.
Guided Start eliminates guesswork before it becomes a setback.
Your first phase is personally structured and reviewed by Dr. Nicola Schmitz -
so your progress is built on clarity, not trial and error.
Clients who chose to activate their first 21 days properly:
“I didn’t realize how much I was overcomplicating everything.”
After buying the main program, I felt motivated.
I had a notebook full of ideas and 12 supplements on my kitchen counter.
During Guided Start, we stripped it down to what actually mattered for my current state.
For the first time, I wasn’t changing five things at once.
I had one clear focus for the first 3 weeks.
My symptoms didn’t magically disappear overnight -
but my anxiety around “doing it wrong” did and it paid off!
- Mara K., Hashimoto’s (US)
“I was scared of triggering another crash.”
I’ve tried protocols before and always ended up overdoing it.
A good week, I’d push harder and then I’d pay for it.
What surprised me about Guided Start was how calm it felt.
We didn’t jump into detox or aggressive changes.
We focused on stabilizing sleep and nervous system regulation first.
Within a few weeks, I felt more steady and grounded.
And honestly, that´s is something I hadn’t felt in years. Thank you, Nicola

Why Most People Fail In The First 21 Days
- They change too many variables at once.
- They start detox too aggressively.
- They over-supplement.
- They skip nervous system regulation.
- They don’t know what NOT to do.
Guided Start
What You’ll Walk Away With
#1: We eliminate noise before you even begin.
It helps identify:
Your current main stress load
Where you feel unsure
Patterns of overdoing or stalling
What feels most urgent right now
Where your nervous system is overloaded (so you stop pushing too hard)
This ensures our session is focused and relevant - not generic.
#2: You finally stop guessing.
In a 40 minute 1:1 Zoom-Call we'll explore your symptoms, history, and pattern.
We clarify:
Your 2–3 real priorities
What you should consciously leave out
Where you might unintentionally overdo it
What a realistic starting pace looks like
#3: You receive a clear first-phase strategy - not 12 options.
After the session, you receive a concise written summary outlining:
Your defined priorities
Clear boundaries (“no-gos”)
Your stabilization focus
Practical guardrails for the coming weeks
This gives you something concrete to refer back to, instead of relying on memory or second-guessing your decisions.
#4: You don’t implement alone.
Three weeks later, you complete a structured check-in form.
You reflect on:
What felt stable
Where uncertainty showed up
How your pace felt
What needs adjustment
You then receive direct feedback to refine your direction and keep things aligned.
Guided Start is a focused activation phase -
designed to structure your first 21 days with precision and clarity.
Why This Phase Matters
Most people assume that once they have the right information, progress simply follows.
In reality, the phase between understanding and implementation is where most plans quietly lose momentum.
When everything feels important, it becomes easy to:
✓ Adjust too many variables at once
✓ Question whether you’re doing it “correctly”
✓ Move too fast and overwhelm your system
✓ Or hesitate and stall entirely
Without structure, implementation turns into guesswork.
And guesswork creates uncertainty.
Guided Start exists to prevent that pattern before it begins.
It creates a deliberate pause between learning and doing - so your progress is built on clarity rather than reaction.
Who Guided Start Is For
Guided Start is designed for you if:
✓ You feel motivated, but you’re done experimenting on yourself.
✓ You tend to over-research or overdo when you start something new
✓ You want clarity before making changes
✓ You want to build stability - not chase symptoms.
✓ You are serious about long-term regulation.
Who It´s Not For
Guided Start may not be necessary if:
- This is not for people who want to “try a few things and see.”
- You prefer to experiment freely without defined boundaries
- You’re looking for medical treatment diagnosis or treatment plan
- You expect ongoing coaching instead of a defined activation phase
Each plan is personally reviewed and structured by Dr. Schmitz.
To ensure personal guidance, only 15 Guided Start spots are available each month.
