What is Holistic Wellness + Functional Nutrition Coaching?

Health is so much more than blood tests, weight and cardio.

It’s the combination of genetics, nutrition, lifestyle + stressors AND how your specific biology functions with the tools it’s given.

While we can’t control the genetics we inherited, we can work with what IS in our control - our body, mind and lifestyle.

90 Days to Completely Transform Your Life

Using a combination of symptom tracking and food + lifestyle journaling we formulate a custom plan that completely transforms the way you feel in less than 12 weeks.

When it comes to healing, we address stress on the body, mind and in the gut to relieve the burden on the body’s various systems + use targeted support where needed.

Focusing on foundational elements of health, you support your body’s ability to heal itself from the inside out and feel better with more ease + clarity.

Course Curriculum

 

Holistic Health

Nourishment comes in many forms. In this course, we’ll address all the components of health including hydration, nutrition, movement, stress management, digestive support, mental health, self-care and more.

Digestion + Gut Health

All disease begins in the gut. You’ll learn all about the digestive system, what proper function + dysfunction looks like, how to remove intolerances as necessary and nourish back to health with targeted supplementation.

Nutrition, Quality + Sourcing

This program will teach you how to get back to a natural way of eating, shop + prep with confidence, how to fuel your body + nourish from the inside out. No more cravings, guilt + dieting, just pure satisfaction.

 

Stress-Management

Stress wreaks havoc on our hormones + digestion. In this course, you’ll learn all about my stress bucket theory, how to remove stressors from a biological level, relax your nervous system to activate a state of joy and healing + get back to a calm state of being.

Hormone Balance

When we have our nutrition, digestion + stress under control, our hormones can balance themselves out naturally. However, if your body has been in an imbalanced state for too long, it may need some additional support. This program will guide you there.

Sleep + Movement

No more sleepless nights + dreading the gym. This program will teach you how to prioritize rest and movement (with JOY!) for your mental + physical well-being. You will learn how these affect your overall health, metabolism, balance + moods and what you can do to maximize both.

I’ve been in your shoes…

Bloated, miserable, struggling to find the energy or focus to complete tasks, feeling like crap for no reason, relying on constant coffee refills, struggles with my skin + weight, feeling like I was allergic to everything, sleeping terribly, struggling to get out of bed, feeling overly sensitive all the time, battling addictions, binges + endless cravings

… with a body that was attacking itself.

Add to that some traumatic events, overuse of birth control, alcohol/drugs + antibiotics, daily stress, sedentary habits + yo-yo dieting and I was in a constant cycle of feeling depressed + sick and coping with even unhealthier methods.

After years of research, education + trial and error, I finally learned how to heal from the inside out. My mental and physical health have never been better. I’m in better shape now with minimal effort, than I was when I ran a full marathon. I feel calm, content + more resilient to all the stress life throws my way.

I know the healing journey can feel daunting, but I’m here to tell you that it is WORTH IT. Let my experience save you the years of pain, suffering, embarrassment + fear that I felt for YEARS by guiding you in the right direction from the start. Together we’ll get you feeling your best in no time.
