Get to know Michelle

Hi, I'm so glad you're here, it's nice to meet you!
My name is Michelle. I have a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, a M.S. in Engineering Management, and a certificate in Health Coaching from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.
Along with my health and wellness coaching I am working as an engineer in the automotive industry. I have been married to my husband Matt since 2019 and we have one daughter.
My decision to become a Health Coach has allowed me to combine my critical thinking skills with my passion for wellness and helping others. I love encouraging people to be the best versions of themselves, and enjoy coming up with creative solutions to help my clients break past any obstacles they may face on the journey to better health.
I chose to attend the Institute for Integrative Nutrition because I wanted to learn about many different dietary theories, the best ways to connect with and motivate my clients, and how to turn my passion into a business.

Over the past couple years, I have learned some things that have truly changed my life:

• Our bodies will bring themselves back into balance, if we give them a chance with the tools to do so

• Food is medicine

• Even if we eat perfectly, we can sabotage the health benefits of our food if other areas of our lives are out of balance (i.e. stress, sleep, relationships, career, etc.). Balance matters!

But my journey isn't over. I make decisions every day that help or hurt my health, and I am still working on managing stress and keeping my life balanced.
To anyone else struggling with their health - don't give up! Health is a journey, not a destination.

If you would like to tell me about your journey, or your motivation to get healthy, please reach out to me. I cannot wait to hear your story and work along side you to help you reach your goals!
