A Psychological Perspective of the Intelligence of Human Nature and Gut Instinct" and also of "Increasing Intuitional Intelligence: How the Awareness of Instinctual Gut Feelings Fosters Human Learning, Intuition, and Longevity". She was born in Charlotte, North Carolina, and grew up primarily in Georgia and Mississippi. She received her bachelor's degree in Elementary Education in 1968 and her MA in Educational Psychology in 1970, with a fifth year certificate in Psychometry and license as a School Psychologist . She was a counselor/instructor in the '70s and early 80's, operating as a career counselor and educator at Meridian College and later in a large community college, Santa Fe Community College (SFCC), in Gainesville, Florida, and as a School Psychologist for the Alachua County Board K-12.

Sterling, concerning the gut self-regulated responses that they were discovering with individuals they were counseling in career exploration.

In 2008, she received her PMA in Art Therapy. With years of study and new medical breakthroughs supporting the intelligence of the gut brain, she and Robert Sterling have written a groundbreaking book, "What's Behind Your Belly Button?" introducing a new Gut Science exploring the intelligence of gut instincts.

She has used her long years of cookery expertise in addition to her education of human needs and gut response awareness to put in writing a book to guide those who have found it a necessity due to sickness or just a sensible move toward well-being to try to create healthy changes to their diet and their cookery.
