Hi, I’m Amanda,
Certified Integrative Health Coach & Recovering Do-It-All Mother
I help women discover an integrated life full of purpose and joy.
The Key to Finding a Balanced Life You Love
Being a mother is demanding, especially with all of life’s other responsibilities.
It’s easy to feel alone and overwhelmed by all the things that don’t seem to get done unless YOU do them.
Your tank is empty at the end of every day – you’re burned-out and exhausted.
But how do you find time to make your health a priority?
If you’re like me, it's not that you don’t care about living a healthy life – in fact, it’s your ultimate desire for yourself and your family! But if you don’t start with yourself, you won’t be equipped to build healthy choices into your family dynamic.
Making space for yourself in your daily routine IS possible. I’m here to empower you with a new approach to health – so you can pursue your dreams and most importantly, rediscover your joy!
Dream Big, Start Small.
Being a Holistic Health Coach Is My Dream
I’m deeply thankful to be doing what fulfills me and brings me joy every single day — connecting with you and helping you connect your heart’s deepest dreams and desires.
How Integrative Nutrition and Holistic Living Saved Me
I’m a wife, mom to three (plus two fur babies), lover of travel and coffee!
I’m also a health coach, housekeeper, friend, sister, homeschool teacher, chef extraordinaire, bedtime reader…I’ve got a lot on my plate.
I had big dreams, but I knew I had to start small (Rome wasn’t built in a day, right?). Incorporating small accessible actions that made ME feel alive, happy, and fulfilled made me realize how desperately this part of myself needed attention.
You know what happens when you pay attention to that little voice inside that wants to dream?
You find energy and connection – with yourself and those around you.
You realize health doesn’t have to feel like a chore – it’s actually exciting!
You realize your intuition guides you – it’s your true definition of “health”.
My coaching programs focus on positives over negatives, because sitting in negative space doesn’t help you thrive.
And most importantly, we focus on progress over perfection. Small, digestible steps send you on your way to achieving your goals.
As your holistic health coach, I help you define health on your own terms, instead of telling you what health should look like. We assess, track, and adjust as you learn what works for you.
My goal is to help you tap into your own intuition as your guide.
Let me show you how to explore life and health on your own terms, using the intuition you already have!
My Promise to You — From One Mom to Another
My journey has given me the opportunity to give women just like you a leg up to work smarter not harder.
It fills me with joy to give you the tools to do it all. Navigating these times in your life becomes second nature when you learn to define health on your own terms.
I promise to empower you to create a healthy and sustainable lifestyle. I promise to encourage you to find joy every day by coming back to what feels good to you – outside of external influences.
I promise to bring authenticity and hold space for safe, non-judgemental empathy and connection so you can listen to your intuition and thrive.
Through this journey you find your purpose organically – I know what it feels like to realize your purpose and unlock the joy it brings.
You suddenly find you’re comfortable in your own skin.
Let’s dive in – disconnecting from society’s expectations for your life opens your eyes to a whole new world of possibilities. Why wait?
Finding My Path to a Joyfully-Aligned Life
Health is in my roots – it’s been a part of me for as long as I can remember.
I’m fascinated by the way our bodies are designed to function and survive. I’ve spent most of my life noticing things others could do differently that would make a big impact on their health.
I’ve always put my health to the test – I never took sick days, even as a kid. I was constantly critiquing and advising my parents on their daily habits with eating and exercise (Yes, I was that kid…).
With 10 years of experience in holistic health coaching, I create personalized, low-stress plans that give you the opportunity to navigate life in a healthier, clearer mind space.
No drill sergeant here. The one thing you don’t need is more stress and guilt in your life!
And I promise I’ll never tell you you can’t have your morning coffee!
In college, I studied cultural anthropology where I spent lots of time traveling and exploring new cultures. This gave me powerful insight on rhythms around food and life – what made these cultures thrive as healthy, vibrant people. It was eye-opening, to say the least.
And then the kids came. Oh, my lovely, beautiful kids. Have I mentioned they’re the center of my world?
I loved them so much. But I felt like my personal life was over. Done.
Taking care of myself just seemed impossible so I did what most mothers do… I pushed myself to the backburner. This “why bother” mentality is one of the worst mindsets I could have adopted. It sent me into a spiral of bad habits, fatigue, mental stress, and an exhausting life that didn’t fill me up.
This was my rock bottom, and it made me realize I had to do something if I wanted to show up in my own life – for myself and for my people.
So I pursued a degree from The Institute for Integrative Nutrition to become a certified integrative health coach. My time studying and realigning my own life helped me develop the concept of health as a whole-body experience – heart, soul, and mind.
Even as a coach, I’ve continued my education in specialized topics surrounding holistic health. I’ve taken a multitude of courses and classes on hormonal issues, gut health, and personal exploration.
All to bring more value to you, as my client.
Let me help you find your path.
